Tackifiers are low-molecular weight compounds (oligomers) that are added to adhesive formulations to improve tack and peel adhesion. Their glass transition temperature (Tg) is typically higher than that of the base polymer but their molecular weight is much lower. The tackifiers dissolve in the polymer matrix and break up their structure and thereby enhance the mobility and tack of the base polymer. They also provide functionality that promotes specific adhesion, bridging and reduces molecular cohesion, which in turn, lowers the melt viscosity and softening point of the polymer system.
Asia-Pacific is the largest Tackifiers market with about 44% market share. North America is follower, accounting for about 29% market share.The key manufacturers are Exxonmobil, Eastman, Kolon Industries, Cray Valley, Guangdong Komo, DRT, Zeon, Yasuhara Chemical, Harima Chemicals, Arakawa Chemical, Shanghai Jinsen, Kraton, IDEMITSU, RÜTGERS Group etc. Top 5 companies occupied about 46% market share.
