Increasing usage of PU microspheres as encapsulants in crop protection and drug delivery system is expected to remain a key demand driver over the forecast period. The Global Polyurethane (PU) Microspheres Market is expected to reach USD 88.01 million by 2024, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Technical feasibility problems such as poor control of drug release and inactivation of drugs during fabrication have led producers to integrate backward and manufacture microspheres on their own, meeting over half of the total demand. Pricing of PU microspheres is largely influenced by costs associated with its synthesis from base resin. Also, additive pricing plays a major role as their composition varies according to the end-use requirements and product grades. A stable outlook for PU resin prices is likely to have a positive impact on producer’s margins and prices at the consumer level. Encapsulation emerged as the most dominant application segment and accounted for ov
