DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Metallocene Polyethylene (mPE) - Global Market Outlook (2017-2026)" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The Global Metallocene Polyethylene (MPE) market is accounted for $4.67 billion in 2017 and is expected to reach $9.56 billion by 2026 growing at a CAGR of 8.29%.
Rising demand and succeeding of MPE from the packaging industry and solar power industry are expected to boost this market's growth. However, High cost of polyolefins as compared to other catalysts and growing concerns related to plastic disposal are hindering the market growth.
Metallocene Polyethylene MPE is the most recent addition to the polyethylene family and are reported to have superior mechanical properties over conservative polyethylenes. This paper sought to examine the effect of joining together these materials with conventional low density polyethylene for use in thin films, suitable as packaging materials and produced by the blown film process. MPE absorbs almost no water. A MPE is a compound that consists of two cyclopentadienyl anions that in the oxidation state are bound to a metal center which results in a general formula. Metallocene and its derivatives contain catalytic properties although they are rarely used industrially.
Amongst application, Metallocene Linear Low Density Polyethylene (mLLDPE) segment accounted for the largest market share in the global market, owing to puncture resistance and high tensile power. Asia Pacific is expected to have the largest market share and dominated the market during the forecast period due to rising demand for packaging films from the food & beverages industry.
