DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Global Polymer Concrete Market - Segmented by Application, Polymer Type and Geography - Growth, Trends and Forecasts (2018 - 2023)" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The global polymer concrete market is projected to register a CAGR of 6.32% during the forecast period.
North America is to lead with a larger share of the global market due to the growing construction industry in the region. Epoxy holds the largest share of the polymer type segment.
Increasing Need for Chemical-Resistant Construction Materials
Concrete structures are usually exposed to corrosive environments. Conventional concrete, the alkaline Portland hydraulic cement formed voids and cracks during hydration, leaving gaps for water to penetrate and crack the concrete. Harsh environments leave concrete susceptible to acid attack, which may also result in the damage of the structure upon use.
Usage of polymeric materials in concrete proved to subvert this failure, owing to their high strength and durability. Additionally, using several types of resins, such as polyester-styrene, epoxy, etc., eliminates the open voids and provides the required chemical resistance to the structures in hostile environments.
