There are four major categories of specialty chemicals: Construction chemicals, Separation membranes, Pharmaceutical ingredients, and Hybrid products. These chemicals are made in smaller quantities and serve a limited number of applications. They are categorized according to their origin and use. The European Chemical Industry Council (Cefic) classifies these chemicals as specialty chemicals. They are distinguished from commodity and fine chemicals, which are often used in bulk quantities.
Construction chemicals
The market for construction chemicals is segmented according to application. Residential construction was the largest segment, with the highest CAGR of 6.90%, during the forecast period. As more people are opting for gated communities, developers are launching new projects to cater to this demand. Domiciliary buildings and residential construction are the most common applications of construction chemicals. They help in improving the aesthetics of buildings, and they are also used for reducing labor costs.
Separation membranes
In addition to the many benefits of using separation membranes, these materials also offer environmental benefits. By using these materials in industrial processes, companies can reduce the environmental impact of these operations, while reducing the cost. Here are some of the uses of separation membranes. Listed below are some of the more common applications. And remember to consult your doctor before using this technology. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to contact us.
Pharmaceutical ingredients
As the name suggests, pharmaceutical industries use a variety of chemical reagents to evaluate the composition of products and identify the individual constituents. These chemical reagents can also be used to assess the potential adverse effects of physicochemical or biological factors. In this article, we will discuss some of the most common uses for specialty chemicals. But before we explore these uses, let’s first examine how these substances are manufactured.
Hybrid products
A range of hybrid products have emerged to meet the needs of the modern consumer. These new technologies combine two or more curing technologies in one product to create a new hybrid product. Polyisocyanates contain silane curing groups and can be used as reactive co-binders to create coatings with greater durability and crosslinking density. Novel performance enhancements are also possible using self-repairing and nanoparticle technologies. These technologies have only recently begun to find acceptance in the market.
Conclusion:
Despite its relatively new technology, nanoparticles have already made a significant impact in the manufacturing of a variety of specialty chemicals. They are capable of a variety of industrially important properties, including a range of different surface areas and a high degree of interface between constituents. These properties can significantly add value to the final product. However, the technology involved in generating nanoparticles is still evolving.
