The blowing agent is a chemical substance that is used in generating a gas to expand rubber, plastics, and ceramics to create foam. Blowing agents are used to impart features such as low weight, heat insulation, sound absorbency, permeability, elasticity, electrical insulation, excellent textures, wood grain, and shock absorbency. Blowing agents are used in the production of various types of foam such as rigid extruded polystyrene (XPS) foam, rigid PUR foam, and flexible PUR foams.
The HC segment accounted for the major shares of this market. HC foams are used in various applications including commercial refrigeration, cold storage, food processing, chill cabinets, and vending machines. With increasing use of HC in PU foams for various end-user industries including automotive, appliances, construction, flooring, and furnishing the segment will continue to account for the major shares of the foam blowing agents market throughout the next few years.
The PU segment will contribute to the highest revenue shares of this market. Owing to it properties such as high recyclability, clean incineration for pollutant filtration, and minimum wastage, there is an increasing demand for PU from the bedding and furniture and construction industries. The rising urban population in the emerging economies in APAC and the growing need for automotive components, will fuel the growth of the market in this segment.
