Report Feature
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.
In a major new research report, Worldwide Polyester Resin Competitive Analysis and Leadership Study 2007, Lucintels analysts examine and profile six of the worlds leading polyester resin producers – a full competitive analysis from target markets, to product mapping, to selling strategy, to production capabilities.
Collected from a series of primary vendor interviews and secondary sources, this report provides complete profiles of the following companies:
- AOC Resins
- Ashland Composite Polymers
- DSM Resins
