Surface Mounting Application to Dominate the Market

• Surface mounting, also known as chip bonding, accounts for the highest share of the South America electronic adhesives industry.
• The major types of adhesives used in this application include mostly one-component systems, made from acrylics, epoxies, or urethane acrylates, and can be either electrically or thermally conductive.
• These adhesives used have superior physical and chemical quality which helps them to have a long shelf life, a high wet strength, rapid curing, strength, and flexibility.
• This surface mounting adhesives are used to hold SMT components on a substrate that requires double-sided processing before it goes into a solder reflow or wave solder process. Additionally, they are used to add extra holding power for larger components exposed to high shock environments.
• Hence, owing to the above-mentioned reasons, the surface mounting application is likely to dominate the market studied during the forecast period.

Brazil to Dominate the Market

• Brazil currently accounts for the highest market share of the South America electronics adhesives market. Brazil has some of the largest electronics manufacturing plants in Latin America.
• Additionally, the region is expected to have a strong base in electric vehicle production; among the automakers to be selling or considering to sell electric vehicles (EV) and hybrids in Brazil in Toyota, Volkswagen, Hyundai, Nissan, Chevrolet, Volvo, and BMW.
• Revival of automotive industry clubbed with advent of electrical vehicles is expected to help propel the growth of the market studied in the country.
• Hence, owing to the above-mentioned factors, Brazil is likely to dominate the market studied during the forecast period.
