Hydrophobically Modified Alkali Swellable Emulsion (HASE): Rising Demand from Paints & Coatings as well as Adhesive Sealant will boost the Growth of the Global Market

Pune, India, September 26, 2017 /MRFR Press Release/- Market Research Future published a Half Cooked Research Report on Global Hydrophobically Modified Alkali Swellable Emulsion (HASE) Market.

Hydrophobically Modified Alkali Swellable Emulsion (HASE) are complex hydrophobes which are composed of oligomeric nonylphenol condensates attached to a poly (ethyl acrylate-co-methacrylic acid) backbone. These are rheology modifiers which are used to control characteristics of the solution. The rheology of the solution depends on the concentration of hydrophile-lipophile balance (HLB) of nonionic surfactants. They are used to control the fluidity pattern of the solution which make it suitable for various application such as paints & coatings, cosmetics & personal care, adhesive & sealant, industrial & homecare cleaning, pulp & paper and others.

Some of the prominent factors that positively influence the growth of Hydrophobically Modified Alkali Swellable Emulsion Market are increasing urbanization, rising demand from paints & coatings, and growing production of cosmetics & personal care. Speedy industrialization coupled with increasing per capita disposable income in emerging economies are estimated to drive the growth of the market during the review period. Moreover, increasing investment in residential as well as commercial sector is set to propel the growth of HASE market. However, increasing demand for various substitutes which possess less pH sensitivity and water resistance, is expected to hinder the growth of the market.
