DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Global Organophosphorus Flame Retardant Market 2016-2021: Trends, Forecast, and Opportunity Analysis" report to their offering.
The global organophosphorus flame retardant market is forecast to grow at a CAGR of 5.2% from 2016 to 2021
The major drivers of growth for this market are stringent government regulations related to prohibition of polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs), growing awareness on fire safety, and increasing market penetration of organophosphorus flame retardants in various end-use industries.
ATH flame retardants are used in a variety of applications, such as polyolefin, epoxy, rubber, unsaturated polyester resin, polyvinyl chloride and others. The report predicts that the demand for engineering thermoplastics is likely to experience the highest growth in the forecast period supported by growing demand in end product manufacturing.
Within the organophosphorus flame retardant market, the building and construction segment is expected to remain as the largest market by value and volume. Stringent government regulations related to prohibition of the use of halogenated flame retardants is expected to spur growth for this segment over the forecast period.
North America is expected to emerge as the largest market due to government initiatives and inclination of original equipment manufacturer (OEMs) towards sustainable and safer alternatives of halogenated flame retardants leading to wider acceptance of organophosphorus flame retardants in various end-use industries.
Asia Pacific and the rest of the world are expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period because of growing awareness related to fire safety and growth in construction, electrical and electronics, and transportation sector.
