An adhesive film is a thin sheet of industrial adhesive with a rigid backing that provides superior performance. Adhesives are used for a broad range of applications including fastening, assembling, sealing, and fastening together a variety of materials, the most common application of ahesives include bonding fabrics and coatings. Despite the fact that adhesives are relatively thin, they offer a high degree of sealing efficiency comparable to that of rugs, screws, bolts and other fasteners in most applications. These can also be used as a binder, as it can bond two or more materials together in order to form a more complex joint. The backing polyurethane that is used in this type of joint provides strength to the bond.
Market Dynamics
Increasing launches of new product by key players is expected to drive the global adhesive films market growth over the forecast period. For instance, in August 2021, Cosmo Films launched new film products for the label and flexible packaging industry. This new range of films include BOPP face stocks, water-based and UV flexo-compatible film, direct thermal film, and synthetic paper.
Increasing use of plastic and composite for manufacturing automobiles is expecetd to drive the market growth. The market is expanding due to the increasing prevalence of adhesive film replacement over mechanical joining processes in heavy truck to sports car production, as well as the increasing efforts of automotive manufacturers to develop lightweight vehicles to optimize fuel efficiency. Methacrylates are widely used in exterior applications because these bond exceptionally well with metal, and are in higher demand due to their ability to distribute pressure and stress loads more evenly than mechanical fasteners like rivets.
