Unsaturated polyester
resins (UPR) are the most widely used resin type for composites,
comprising in excess of 70% of all thermoset resins (others being epoxies, phenolics,
imides, and urethanes). Unsaturated polyester resins, including vinyl ester resins,
are the target of this market study; in particular, the focus is on the portion
of polyester resins which are used in fiber-reinforced (structural)
applications as opposed to those which go into non-reinforced uses such as artificial
marble, polymer concrete, or gel coats.
In what is currently a market characterized by mature products and application markets,
escalating raw material costs, and overall growth at not much more than GDP rates,
the leading firms that produce polyester resin and polyester resin reinforced
composites are approaching market opportunities with starkly different
strategies.
