The global phenolic resins market is projected to reach USD
16.0 billion by 2025, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc.
Technological advancements have fostered the development of unique heat shields
with ablative phenolics for aerospace applications, leading to greater market
share in recent years.
Development of lignin and
corn-based renewable feedstock have also presented new growth avenues in the
industry. Increasing awareness regarding resource conservation and the
implementation of stringent sustainability standards has positively impacted
green materials demand, encouraging manufacturers to integrate such raw
materials into their products.
Technological advancements have
fostered novel processing methods that conserve greater amount of resources
while producing phenolics, compelling new entrants to invest high in capital
funds to maintain competitive margins in the industry.
Novolac emerged as the dominant
product segment, occupying nearly 50% of the volume share in 2015. These resins
are increasingly being designed for use as hardeners or curing agents in epoxy
applications to meet the demand for laminates, adhesives, molding materials,
and coatings. The segment is expected to grow at around 5.2% CAGR from 2016 to
2025.

Further key findings from
the study suggest:
- Resols are expected to grow at a high CAGR of 5.7% in
terms of volume from 2016 to 2025
- Solid resins are expected to remain a dominant
sub-segment within resols, accounting for nearly 80% of the revenue share
in 2015. The product is available in lumps, granular or powder form and is
widely utilized as coatings, laminates, adhesives and other products
- Wood adhesives are expected to remain the dominant
application for phenolics, with high demand generated from the furniture,
woodworking and construction industries
- Molding compounds are likely to remain the
fastest-growing application, with over 6% CAGR from 2016 to 2025. Growing
petrochemicals industry, in China and India, is crucial to their
application in manufacturing electrical equipment with enhanced efficiency
and mechanical strength
- Asia Pacific was the largest consumer since the
region is home to major end-use industries such as construction,
electronics and automotive which are expanding at an exponential pace
themselves
- Key companies operating in the industry are BASF SE,
Momentive Specialty Chemicals, Sumitomo Bakelite Co. Ltd., Georgia-Pacific
Chemicals, and Kolon Industries Inc. Other major participants may be
listed as Owens Corning, Arclin Inc., Olympic Panel Products LLC, Ashland
Inc., DIC Corporation, and Hexcel Corporation
