Global Matting Agents Market is anticipated to reach USD 1.05 billion by 2025. A matting agent implies an additive that helps to give matte finishing to the substrates. Matting agents are added to the paints, coatings, and inks that scatter the inward light eventually delivering a matte finish to the substrates.
The factors that propel the growth of the Matting Agent Market include rise in the disposable income, rapid urbanization, rising acceptance among consumers, growing coating industry, and environment-friendly features. On the other hand, there are factors that may hamper the growth of the market including higher film shrinkage time and emission of high VOC in solvent-based technology. The industry is anticipated to grow at a significant CAGR in the upcoming period as the scope, product types, and its applications are increasing across the globe.
