Amorphous Polyolefins - MARKET ADVISORY SERVICES
Amorphous poly-alpha-olefins (APAO/APO) are produced by (co-) polymerisation of -olefins, e.g.
propylene or 1-butene with Ziegler-Natta catalysts.
The (co-)polymers have an amorphous structure which makes them useful for the production of hot melt adhesives.Amorphous poly-alpha-olefins (APAO/APO)s are used as base polymers in hot-melt adhesives, bitumen modification, paper laminating, elastomer extenders in sealants, pressure sensitive adhesives, and many other applications.
Hot melt adhesive and pressure sensitive adhesive is the largest application field.
According to this study, over the next five years the Amorphous Polyolefins market will register a 2.7% CAGR in terms of revenue, the global market size will reach US$ 540 million by 2024, from US$ 480 million in 2019.
