Plastic additives are specialty chemicals used to impart specific properties to plastics for making them more desirable for application in end-user segments. Plastic additives are available in different types based on the functions they perform. Some of the major types include plasticizers, heat and light stabilizers, flame retardants, antioxidants, antifog, slip, antiblock, lubricants and masterbatch additives. The use of plastic additives provides certain properties to the end product such as durability, flexibility, antioxidant potential and microbial resistance among others, which is driving the demand for plastic additives. The demand for plastic additives is growing in line with increasing demand for plastics, which is strongly correlated with economic growth of the country. Demand for plastics is growing as they offer a better alternative to traditional materials such as wood, metal and glass in a wide range of applications. The fastest growing plastic polymers in India are polypropylene and polyethylene, followed by Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC). Growth in these polymer segments is emerging as a key driver for augmenting the demand for plastic additives in India.
