Pigment Dispersions are used to create a stable suspension for liquid coatings, paints, or inks. The method of dispersion is pigment wetting, grinding phase, and pigment suspension stability. Pigment dispersion is the method in which pigment powder is broken down by mechanical shear in individual particles so that after this phase, the pigment agglomerates are broken back together to form larger structures.
The pigment dispersions market can be divided based on segments like dispersion type, pigment type, application, and end-use.

The increasing demand in the building and construction sector for paints and coatings is driving the pigment dispersions market growth. Pigment dispersion based on water is commonly used in significant applications such as paints and coatings and inks for printing and plastics. The building and construction segment was the largest consumer of pigment dispersions in 2020, whereas, during the forecast period, the automotive sector is expected to be the fastest-growing end-use sector. Due to its low VOC, excellent gloss, elevated tinting strength, fluidity, and storage stability characteristics, water-based dispersion is the more prominent and faster-growing dispersion form. The development of the market for pigment dispersions in the Asia Pacific is driven primarily by the strong demand in the construction and manufacturing sector. The growing population and increasing end-use sectors have resulted in innovation and growth, making the Asia Pacific a major industrial hub worldwide. It is anticipated that high growth and innovation, together with sector consolidations, will lead to the fast growth of the market in the region. Pigment dispersions are also essential for the manufacturing of various cosmetics products; thus, the growth of the cosmetics industry is also expected to drive the pigment dispersions market growth. However, owing to its damaging impact on health and environment, strict restrictions on the manufacturing of pigments are a significant constraint to the pigment dispersions market growth.
