预计市场将受到 TPO 作为其他聚合物替代品的使用增加的推动。然而,原材料价格的波动可能成为市场製约因素。
越来越多地使用 TPO 作为其他聚合物的替代品
食品、包装、医疗和汽车等最终用途行业的法规正在增加使用 TPO 来替代天然橡胶、合成橡胶、PVC 和硅胶。这些法规旨在通过减少有害废物、降低能源消耗以及提高材料安全性和可回收性来减少污染。这种情况导致研究人员考虑增加产品的多功能性并降低成本。 TPO 正在汽车领域取代 TPV,其使用量有望增加。在预测期内,TPO 有望在汽车应用中取代 PVC 和 TPU 薄膜。在典型的使用场景中,TPU 和 PEBA 具有相当的弹性。此外,由于环境问题日益严重,TPO 的需求量很大,因为它对环境友好且易于分解且不会留下有害残留物。
由于汽车内外饰应用对轻质、高性能、可回收材料的需求不断增长,汽车行业已成为 TPO 最大的最终用途市场。 TPO可以为车身提供优异的耐候性、耐刮擦性、耐低温衝击性和色彩匹配性。保险槓、填充板、雨刷、车身密封件、汽车垫圈、门窗把手、减振垫等是汽车车身外部零件的一些示例。 TPO 还用于汽车行业的内部发动机应用。国际汽车製造商组织估计,2020 年全球将生产 7700 万辆汽车。
因此,全球汽车产量的增加将有助于 TPO 市场的增长。汽车中对 TPO 的需求不断增加,导致汽车中的金属和合金部件被聚合物和热塑性弹性体替代。通过使用TPO,可以将传统汽车零部件的重量减轻20%~25%。根据美国化学委员会 (ACC) 的数据,美国轻型商用车中 TPO 的平均使用量超过 36 磅,其卓越的品质和强度有望增加使用量。
原材料价格波动
对于生产商而言,原材料可用性和原材料价格是决定产品线定价结构的重要因素。许多 TPO 的价格一直在稳步上涨。价格上涨主要是劳动力和能源成本上升以及原油及其衍生品价格波动的结果。此外,TPO成本上涨的原因是它不能与填料结合製成使用大量材料的廉价产品。 TPO 不能填充廉价的填料,如炭黑。与加工热固性橡胶所需的设备相比,加工热塑性烯烃成本高昂并且需要大量的初始资本投资。热塑性聚烯烃(TPO)的原材料包括塑料树脂、工业无机化学品、合成橡胶、无机化学品和精炼石油产品。每种原材料的大部分都是石油基改性产品,易受商品价格波动的影响。

The Thermoplastic Polyolefin (TPO) Market reached US$ XX million in 2021 and is expected to record significant growth by reaching up to US$ XX million by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 6.10% during the forecast period (2022-2029).
Thermoplastic polyolefin or TPO, is a substance that was initially created for pond liners and has been widely used for roofing since 1989. It is a single-ply membrane that can be mechanically or adhesively fastened to a roof. TPO is made of a polymerized mixture of polypropylene and ethylene-propylene rubber. TPO is a low-cost and effective option for flat and low-slope roofs and is particularly well suited to hot, sunny climates. TPO compounds are polypropylene (PP) resin blends with uncrosslinked EPDM rubber and polyethylene and have high impact resistance, low density and good chemical resistance. The respective products are used in applications that require greater toughness and durability than traditional PP copolymers, such as automotive bumpers and dashboards. The properties are limited to the upper end of the hardness scale, typically greater than 80 Shore A and have limited elastomeric properties. TPOs are simple to process using injection molding, extrusion or blow molding.
The market will be driven by the increasing applications of TPOs to replace other polymers. However, the volatile raw material prices could be a major market restraint.
Increasing applications of TPOs as a replacement for other polymers
Regulations in the food, packaging, medical, automotive and other end-use industries have increased the use of TPOs, displacing natural rubber, synthetic rubber, PVC and silicone. These regulations aim to reduce pollution by minimizing hazardous waste, reducing energy consumption and increasing the safety and recyclability of materials. This situation has prompted researchers to consider expanding product versatility and cutting costs. TPOs are displacing TPVs in the automotive sector and their use is anticipated to grow. During the forecast period, TPOs are anticipated to take the place of PVC and TPU films in automotive applications. In typical usage scenarios, the recovery capabilities of TPU and PEBA are comparable. Additionally, as environmental concerns grow, the demand for TPOs is rising due to their eco-friendliness and the ease with which their products decompose without leaving any harmful residue.
Because of the rising demand for lightweight, high-performing and recyclable materials for exterior and interior auto part applications, the automotive industry is the largest end-use market for TPO. TPO can provide superior weather resistance, scratch and mar resistance, low-temperature impact and color matching for car bodies. Bumpers, filler panels, wipers, body seals, automotive gaskets, door & window handles and vibration damping pads are a few examples of exterior body parts used. TPO is also utilized in the automotive industry for applications inside the engine. The International Organization of Motor Vehicle Manufacturers estimates that 77 million cars will be produced globally in 2020.
Consequently, the global increase in automotive production will contribute to the growth of the TPO market. As a result of the rising demand for TPO in vehicles, the metal and alloy parts in vehicles are swapped out for polymer and thermoplastic elastomers. Using TPO, the weight of conventional automotive parts can be decreased by 20% to 25%. The average amount of TPO used in light commercial vehicles in U.S. is more than 36 pounds, according to the American Chemistry Council (ACC) and because of its distinctive qualities and strength, usage is anticipated to rise.
The volatile prices of the raw materials
The availability and raw material prices are critical factors for producers in deciding the pricing structure of their product lines. Many TPOs' prices are steadily going up. Price increases are primarily a result of rising labor and energy costs and the fluctuating price of crude oil and its derivatives. TPO costs also go up because they can't be combined with fillers to produce products that use a lot of material but are inexpensive. Carbon black and other inexpensive fillers cannot be loaded into TPO. Compared to the equipment needed to process thermoset rubber, the processing of thermoplastic olefin is more expensive and requires a significant initial capital investment. Plastic resins, industrial inorganic chemicals, synthetic rubbers, inorganic chemicals and refined petroleum products are the raw materials used by thermoplastic polyolefin (TPO). The majority of the respective raw materials are petroleum-based variants that are susceptible to commodity price fluctuations.
