The global impact modifiers market size is estimated at USD 3.9 billion in 2020 and is projected to reach USD 5.0 billion by 2025, at a CAGR of 5.3% from 2020 to 2025. Impact modifiers are additives that enable plastic products to absorb shocks and protect these products from cracking or breaking. The use of impact modifiers improves the properties of polymers, such as impact strength, toughness, and hardness. The amount of impact modifier added depends upon the level of impact resistance needed for end-use applications.
Plastics have many applications in several industries, such as packaging, construction, automotive, consumer goods, textile, agriculture, and medical, among others. Plastics, especially engineering plastics, possess superior mechanical and electrical properties, excellent abrasion resistance, superior chemical resistance, and other properties in comparison to those of conventional materials such as metals, glass, paper, and ceramics.

Continuous innovation and the need for lighter material in several applications are encouraging the replacement of conventional materials with plastic. The increase in consumption of polymers has also increased the usage of impact modifiers in the manufacturing of products for various applications, which improve the mechanical and impact properties of the final product and reduce its cycle time.
PVC is the largest application segment of the impact modifiers market by application. The growth of impact modifiers in PVC application is mainly attributed to its easy availability and low cost as well as the increasing applicability of PVC among varied end-use industries, such as packaging, construction, automotive, and consumer goods. PVC is mainly used in pipes, windows, flooring, roofing, inflatable structures, and lighter structures. It contributes to the quality, cost-effectiveness, and safety of construction material.
The impact modifiers market in the Asia Pacific region is projected to grow at the highest CAGR between 2020 and 2025. China, India, and Japan together accounted for the major share of the Asia Pacific impact modifiers market in 2019. Moreover, the Asia Pacific region is an emerging and lucrative market for impact modifiers, owing to industrial development and improving economic conditions. The presence of a number of plastic products manufacturing plants in China and rapid industrialization in Asia Pacific are expected to drive the impact modifiers market during the forecast period.
