Pharmaceutical solvents Market to Reach US$ 4.1 Bn in Revenues by 202 dec `17

Terpene Resins Market: Overview
Terpene resins are organic compounds derived from natural sources including wood or citrus fruits.
Terpene resin are light coloured, solid or viscous compounds which are soluble in a variety of
solvents. These are commonly used as tackifiers for a variety of elastomers and also find
applications across a diverse set of industries including adhesives & sealants, and paints & coatings,
among others. Straight terpene resin are precipitated from renewable sources or are precipitated
primarily by polymerization.

These resins are chemically inactive and thus are also used in certain food & beverages industry
applications. In terms of appearance, terpene resins are clear, pale yellow or brown amorphous
compounds which exhibit exceptional thermal stability. Production of terpene resins involves
reaction of monomer and hydrocarbon diluent in presence of aluminum chloride catalyst in freidel-
craft reaction. Terpene resins offer a greener, environmentally friendly, sustainable and efficacious
alternative to its conventional hydrocarbon based resins. Primary application of terpene resins is its
use as tackifier for various elastomers. Moreover terpene resins are also widely used in adhesives
manufacture, as modifiers of polymers, in inks & paints manufacture, pulp & paper industry, and
leather processing, among others.
Terpene Resins Market: Dynamics
Global demand for terpene resins is expected to witness steady growth over the forecast period.
Increasing adoption of terpene resins as against that of hydrocarbon based resins across key end use
industries is expected to generate incremental opportunity for the industry incumbents during the
forecast period. The demand for terpene resins is expected to increases owing to increasing demand
from key end use industries including polymer processing, paints & coatings, and paper & pulp,
among others. Exceptional characteristics including chemical inactivity, non-toxicity, and
effectiveness are expected to result in a steady growth in adoption of terpene resins as compared to
that of some of the conventionally used products. However, relatively limited availability as
compared to that of conventional resins coupled with relatively higher prices of these terpene resins
is expected to act as an impediment to growth of global terpene resins market during the forecast
period.
