Microspheres Market by Raw Material (Glass, Ceramic, Polymer), by Type (Hollow, Solid), by Application (Medical, Paints & Coatings, Building & Construction, Automotive, Aerospace), by Region (North America, Asia Pacific, Europe, Middle East and Africa, South America) – Global Forecast (2019 to 2027)

MICROSPHERES MARKET: Summary

The Global Microspheres Market is expected to register a CAGR of more than 9%, reaching a value of around USD 10 billion by the end of 2027.

Microspheres are free-flowing powders with a particle size of 1-1000μm consisting of proteins or synthetic polymers. Microspheres are multi-particulate drug delivery systems which are prepared to obtain prolonged or controlled drug delivery to improve bioavailability, stability and to target the drug to a specific site at a predetermined rate. They are made from polymeric waxy or other protective materials such as natural, semi-synthetic, and synthetic polymers.

MICROSPHERES MARKET: Drivers & RESTRAINTs

Market Driver:

• Growing Demand for Microspheres in The Medical Industry

Microspheres are extensively used in a drug delivery system, especially for targeted drug delivery of anti-cancer agents, ophthalmic agents, etc. Microspheres exhibit various advantages such as providing constant and prolonged therapeutic effect, reducing the dosing frequency, and bioavailability. Another major advantage is the injection of microspheres in the body due to the spherical shape and smaller size.

Thus, the number of advantages offered by microspheres in drug delivery is expected to fuel its demand in the medical industry.

• Use of Microspheres in Paints & Coatings Application

Microspheres find uses in paints & coatings application and are designed to reduce costs, increase solids, enhance properties, and improve process-ability. Use of microsphere as a functional filler reduces weight and shrinkage of product, improves rheology and is non-toxic, fire-resistant, gloss and sheen control, as well as availability in various sizes and bulk densities. The use of microspheres in paints & coatings increases the solid content, reduces resin demand, improves viscosity control, and offers durability.

High demand for paints & coatings across complimentary end-use industries such as building & construction, automotive, aerospace, electronics, etc. is expected to fuel the use of microspheres in paints & coatings.

Market Restraint:

• Fluctuating Raw Material Prices

Raw materials for manufacturing microspheres include glass, phenolic resin, epoxy resin, polystyrene, silicone rubber, polyvinyl chloride, and polyvinyl alcohol. These materials are petroleum-based, which is a major restraining factor for the market growth. This is attributed to the supply-demand gap of petroleum-based raw materials.

Therefore, volatility in raw materials cost is a key restraining factor to market growth.
