Report Overview
Polyester polyols are a type of polyol, which are key building blocks in the production of polyurethane. They are formed by the reaction between dibasic acids (such as adipic or phthalic acid) and polyhydric alcohols (like ethylene glycol or glycerol). These polyols are used primarily in the creation of polyurethane foams, coatings, elastomers, and adhesives, contributing to the flexibility, durability, and resilience of these materials.
Polyester polyols offer good mechanical strength, abrasion resistance, and chemical stability, making them suitable for high-performance applications such as automotive parts, furniture foam, insulation materials, and footwear. They are also utilized in various coatings and adhesives for industrial use, owing to their resistance to chemicals and environmental factors. The specific properties of the polyester polyol can be customized based on the acids and alcohols used in its formulation, making it versatile for a wide range of applications.
The global Polyester Polyols market size is projected to grow from US$ 4855 million in 2024 to US$ 4118 million in 2030; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of -2.7% from 2024 to 2030.
