the decorative and industrial coatings
segments for each individual country
covered. The scope of the study covers
Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan,
Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan.
It provides 2013 market data on nine
mainstream paints and coatings segments: architectural/decorative, industrial wood coatings, protective coatings,
marine coatings, automotive OEM coatings (only for Uzbekistan), automotive
refinishes, powder coatings, general industrial coatings and plastic coatings.
Forecasts on these are also presented for
the year 2018. The cost of the full report

Research and Markets
Releases Top 10
Technologies in Materials &
Coatings 2015
Research and Markets has announced the addition of the “2015 Top
Technologies in Materials & Coatings”
report to their offering.
The research service provides an in-depth analysis of the top 10 materials and
coatings technologies that are expected
to have the highest impact across industries and applications. Each technology
is analyzed in terms of its market potential, application segmentation, innovation
landscape and IP landscape.
Key funding deals and the innova-
tion ecosystem along with the technology
development and adoption scenario are
also highlighted. The research service also
provides a trend analysis of the materials
and coatings sector and the key challeng-
es that are prevalent in the sector.
Innovations in materials and coatings
sector is focused towards multi-function-
ality and high performance attributes.
While cost effective technologies with
value for money is still prominent, reduc-
tion of raw material use and more energy
efficient processes are also noticeable.
The lightweight composites technol-
ogy is established in the automotive and
aerospace sectors with its use is emerging
in sectors such as offshore, transporta-
tion, oil and gas and construction market.
The need for reducing carbon emissions
and increasing fuel efficiency are the
major factors that help in increasing the
adoption of lightweight composites.
Need for materials with tunable properties and high functionality are the major
factors that help in increasing the potential of polymer chameleons. The ability of
the materials to react to external stimuli
and retain their original shape once the
stimulus is removed helps its adoption in
healthcare, protective coatings and self-healing structures.
Waterborne Epoxy Resin
Market Forecast to Reach
$1,221.75 Million by 2020
The report, “Waterborne Epoxy
Resin Market by Application
(Coatings, Composites,
Adhesives, Others), by End-
User Industry (Automotive,
Construction, Textiles, Furniture,
Packaging, Others) & Region - Global
Trends & Forecasts to 2020”, defines
and segments the waterborne epoxy res-
ins market with analysis and forecast of
the market size. The global waterborne
epoxy resin market value is projected to
reach $1,221.75 million by 2020.
The waterborne epoxy resin market in Asia-Pacific is one of the fastest-growing consumers across the globe
and the trend is expected to continue in
the near future. Asia-Pacific is the biggest market for waterborne epoxy resin, and accounted for a share of more
than 51.11 percent of the total market
size in terms of volume in 2014 which
was majorly contributed by China. It is
also estimated that China is the fastest-growing market of waterborne epoxy
resin in the region. The high growth in
this region is mainly driven by growing
population, vast economies – developed
as well as developing, favorable investment policies, and government initiatives to promote industrial growth.
The coatings market is one of the
largest types globally and the trend is
expected to continue in the near future.
Asia-Pacific region constitutes a major
share in coating application in the year
