Reactive diluents are substances which are used in reducing viscosity of lacquer for processing along with becoming part of lacquer during curing via copolymerization. It acts a replacement of volatile diluents and offers smell, skin irritation, flammability and environment compatibility can be improved.  Growing concerns over environmental damage has led to rise in need for low VOC and emission based products which will accelerate industry growth. 

Reactive Diluents Market Outlook 

Growing application scope of reactive diluents and modifiers in coating, binders, sealants and adhesives will have positive impact on industry growth.  It is also used in concrete flooring, sealants, construction adhesives & sealants and traffic stripping. Companies are focusing on research activities to develop novel products which would further accelerate industry growth.  In November 2015, Evonik Industries launched silane modified polymers with cross linking functions which releases ethanol during curing process and decrease adhesives & sealants viscosity. Such products helps in increasing hardness and tensile strength, improve cure through properties and decrease formulation and polymer viscosity in roof sealing, flooring adhesives and assembly adhesives.
