Because of broad campaigns to stop using conventional plastics that are not biodegradable and consumer knowledge of sustainable plastic alternatives, the market for biodegradable plastics like PBAT is growing. Traditional plastics take decades to decompose and spend a lot of time in landfills because they are primarily comprised of petroleum. Biodegradable plastics break down more quickly when they are discarded or returned to the environment. Additionally, due to the activity of bacteria, biodegradable polymers disintegrate significantly faster than ordinary plastics. The rising public awareness of these unfavorable effects (produced by traditional plastics) encourages the adoption of PBAT.
The potential health risks associated with conventional plastics are also a growing source of concern. Utilizing PBAT is safer and healthier for you because it is non-toxic. For instance, PVC can lead to hearing loss, vision impairment, ulcers, and genetic issues. Customers are becoming more conscious of the environmental impact of their purchases. As a result, there is a growing demand for goods that are sustainable and kind to the environment, especially those made with PBAT.
PBAT is ductile and resilient, and it may be made using conventional film extrusion techniques. This helps to produce films with mechanical properties similar to those of LDPE. However, PBAT is stiffer than its homopolymers. Thus, adding PBAT to polymer blends including brittle polymers like PLA (Polylactic Acid) or thermoplastic starch (TPS) can help boost their toughness without impacting their biodegradability.
Participants in the PBAT (polybutylene adipate terephthalate) business are conducting further research to develop PBAT and calcium carbonate-based composite materials that are flexible and moldable. The mixture of inexpensive calcium carbonate and PBAT is somewhat more affordable than other biodegradable polymers. However, manufacturers are increasing the volume of packaging films they make by combining PBAT with PBS (polybutylene succinate). Thus, driving the Poly (Butylene Adipate-Co-Terephthalate) market revenue.
The global Poly (Butylene Adipate-Co-Terephthalate) market segmentation, based on Application, includes composite bags, bin bags, mulch films, cling films, and stabilizers. The market for composite bags was the largest in 2022. This is illustrated by how quickly (between 3-6 months) these plastic bags degrade. Additionally, it has a reduced carbon footprint than polymers derived from petroleum, making it a more environmentally friendly solution. The developing packaged food and beverage sectors in regions like Asia-Pacific and Europe are also predicted to boost demand for biodegradable plastics like polybutylene adipate terephthalate throughout the time period under consideration.
The global Poly (Butylene Adipate-Co-Terephthalate) market segmentation, based on End Use, includes packaging, agriculture & fishery, consumer goods, and coatings. The packaging market had the largest share in 2022. Over the past few years, the packaging industry has been expanding substantially. The food and beverage business has had a big impact on the packaging industry. The rise of the packaged food industry is likely to boost demand for paperboard packaging during the forecasted period. PBAT is used in packaging for consumer goods. Market share for the application is anticipated to rise soon. In the upcoming years, it is expected that elegant, minimalist packaging design and the removal of unnecessary content will be key trends. Given that PBAT is commonly used in food packaging, one of the key reasons propelling the global PBAT market is the rise of the packaging industry. The demand for packaged foods is predicted to rise, driving the PBAT industry.
