MARKET INTRODUCTION
Polyurethane is mainly a thermosetting polymer which does not melt on heating. It is composed of organic units joined by carbamate links. Polyurethane is light in weight, resistant to corrosion, elastic in nature and possesses considerable strength. In many cases, PU is an alternative to paper, glass, and metals. High mechanical strength enables polyurethane to provide insulation and replace metals for automobile parts.
MARKET DYNAMICS
The polyurethane market is anticipated to grow in the forecast period owing to an upsurge in demand for lightweight and durable materials from automotive, packaging, furniture, footwear, and other end-user industries. Moreover, demands for high-performance interior components further contributes to the polyurethane market growth.
