Dubai/UAE — Polysulfides are a class of chemical compounds in which there are chains of sulfur atoms. Polysulfides are compounds in the backbone that have thioether functions, which are sometimes called polythioethers or Thiokols (T). According to a latest market intelligence study by an Esomar-certified market research and consulting firm, the global polysulfide market is projected to reach a market value of $ 490.7 million by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 5.0 % during the forecast period of 2021-2031.

Growth in the coming years is expected to be driven by rising polysulfide consumption in downstream markets, especially in building & construction, rubber processing and other specialty polymers. Automotive and aerospace are other chief end-use verticals that are expected to imbibe a healthy rate of polysulfide as structural components.

According to a report by the Institution of Civil Engineering, titled “Global Construction Perspectives and Oxford Economics,” the global construction market was forecast to reach nearly $ 8 trillion by the end of 2030. Also construction activities within India, China, and the US is poised to surge considerably, which will create considerable scope for expansion of the market. However, industrial processing is likely to account for lion’s share of the market. Recovery of industrial processing post Covid-19 crisis will enable the market gain momentum. Study has predicted the industry to remain dominant through the forecast period, accounting for above 30 % of the market in 2021.
