The presence of fog on the surface of clean plastics used in the packaging of food is very common. This fog is appeared on the surface of the plastic due to the condensation of water vapor on it. An antifog additive is a non-ionic surfactant that helps in lowering the surface tensions. The additive is added to the packaging film at the extrusion phase in the form of concentrates. The additives migrate to the surface as they are incompatible with polymers. The additives help in reducing the surface tension of the water droplets and the surface of the plastic packaging that leads to the uniform spread out of the water and improves the transparency of the plastic film and eliminates the fogging. The new innovations and ideas for the applications of antifog additives are likely to expand the market to a significant extend globally.
MARKET DYNAMICS
The antifog additives market is assumed to grow in the forecast considering the increasing income of the middle-class population in the emerging economies.
