PVB Interlayers are thin films that are packed between two panels of glass to improve protection. Furthermore, these films provide additional safety and support owing to its features including toughness, optical clarity, flexibility, and adhesion. A higher number of these resins enhance water resisting abilities of the polymer. It is further cross-linked with multiple resins comprising phenolic, epoxy, and melamine resins that in turn develops high quality solvent coatings.
The PVB Interlayers Market was valued at USD 4.25 billion in 2022 and is expected to reach USD 7.20 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 6.80% between 2023 and 2030.
The PVB Interlayers are utilized across buildings, construction, photovoltaic, and automotive is further driving the industry. Thus, surging adoption of vehicles along with increasing focus toward safeguarding and safety features is further positively influencing the industry growth. Furthermore, the growing focus toward improving the PVB capability is expected to augment the product demand.
PVB Interlayers raw material are obtained from carbon black compound and petroleum in which price volatility plays a critical role. Hence, the price of the product mainly depends on the price of raw material. The growing efforts to fix the price in order to reduce the price uncertainty associated with the product is driving the industry size.
