 On the basis of end-use industry, the automotive & transportation segment is estimated to lead the overall polyurethane additives market.

The automotive and transportation industries are among the largest and fastest-growing markets for polyurethane additives. Polyurethane-based materials are widely used in the automotive and transportation industries due to their excellent properties such as lightweight, durability, and resistance to heat, chemicals, and abrasion. Polyurethane additives can further increase these properties, making polyurethane-based materials more suitable for a wide range of automotive and transportation applications. Polyurethane foam additives, for example, can improve the comfort and safety of vehicle seats, whilst polyurethane coating additives can improve the corrosion resistance and longevity of vehicle bodywork. As a result, demand for polyurethane additives in the automotive and transportation segments is expected to rise in the coming years, boosting the overall growth of the polyurethane additives market.

On the basis of application, the foams segment is estimated to lead the polyurethane additives market.

The foams market is one of the largest and fastest-growing applications for polyurethane additives. Polyurethane foams are widely used in a variety of industries, including automotive, construction, furniture, bedding, and packaging, due to their excellent properties such as thermal insulation, cushioning, and soundproofing. Polyurethane additives can further increase these properties, making polyurethane foam more suitable for a wide range of applications. Blowing agents, for example, can improve the insulating capabilities of foam, while flame retardants can improve the foam's fire resistance. As a result, demand for polyurethane additives in the foams category is expected to rise in the coming years, boosting the overall growth of the polyurethane additives market.

On the basis of type, the flame retardants segment is projected to lead the overall polyurethane additives market during the forecast period.

One of the largest and fastest-growing segments of polyurethane additives is flame retardants. Flame retardants are added to polyurethane formulations to improve the end product's fire resistance. Polyurethane-based materials are widely employed in a wide range of industries, including construction, automotive, and electronics, where fire safety is a top priority. Flame-retardant polyurethane additives can improve these materials' fire resistance, making them safer for use in such applications. As a result, demand for flame-retardant polyurethane additives is likely to rise in the future years, propelling the polyurethane additives market overall. Furthermore, the implementation of strict fire safety rules by various governments and regulatory organizations around the world is likely to push demand for flame retardants even further.
