The anti-fogging additives or agents reduce the surface tension which results in a thin and continuous layer of water of the surface. These additives allow water to spread into a continuous and uniform transparent layer on the surface of films. This results in improved light transmission and transparency which has benefits in both agricultural and food packaging applications. There are two routes the packaging industry uses to minimize the formation of fog on sheet, film, or thermoformed articles: internal additives or external topical coatings. Internal antifog additives are generally non-ionic surfactants which are added at the film producers mainly in form of concentrates or master batches. These additives usually have a certain level of incompatibility with the polymer matrix they are blended into, and as a result, migrate to the surface.
The global demand for antifog additives market is booming because of increase in demand from greenhouses for use in crop cultivation process and growth of the food processing & food packaging sectors in India and China. Anti-fog additives used in agriculture industries require specifically desired properties, such as high durability in agriculture applications and variable temperature sustainability range. Thus, manufacturers are focusing on increasing the quality of products, which is one of the ongoing key trends in the anti-fog additives market.
The report analyses the global antifog additives market based on type, end use industry and geography.
