London, UK -- (SBWIRE) -- 09/15/2015 -- Dimethylolpropionic acid is a free flowing white crystalline solid which finds numerous applications in processing of water soluble resins. It is a key raw material in polyurethane dispersion for coatings. It finds several minor applications in polyester and resin industry. Polyurethane dispersions made up of dimethylolpropionic acid have low VOCs (volatile organic compounds) and provide the performance of polyurethane with the pliability of waterborne latex, this makes them environment friendly and technically compliant at the same time.

The specialty coatings industry is the key driver for the market of dimethylolpropionic acid. Specialty coatings are used in several industries. Polyurethane dispersions made up of dimethylolpropionic acid are used as coatings for architectural structures, graphic arts products, industrial coating applications, leather & textile applications and adhesives among others. The growing building & construction industry is driving the market of dimethylolpropionic acid. Additionally, the labeling & packaging market and industrial applications are important drivers for the market of dimethylolpropionic acid. Polyurethane dispersions made up of dimethylolpropionic acid have low VOC content, however, they are expensive and their high cost is responsible for replacing the dimethylolpropionic acid coatings with inexpensive acrylic coatings. Technological advances to lower its cost of manufacturing are expected to open new areas of opportunity for the market of dimethylolpropionic acid.
