Animal Glue Market to Observe Strong Development by 2020
Animal
glue is an adhesive that is created by prolonged boiling of adhesive
connective tissue for various domestic applications. Adhesive refers
to a binding substance applied to the surface of materials to avoid
separation. It is a natural form of adhesive used for various
domestic applications. These applications include restoring objects,
paintings, illuminated parchment manuscripts and other artifacts.
Gelatin, a form of animal glue, is found in many contemporary
products such as gelatin desserts, marshmallows and pharmaceutical
capsules and is used to reinforce sinew wrappings, wood, leather,
bark, and paper.

Report Overview @
Animal
glue was the most common woodworking glue for thousands of years
until the advent of synthetic glues such as polyvinyl acetate (PVA)
and other resin glues. It is primarily used as lutherie, pipe organ
building, antique restoration and piano repair among others. Hide
glue, bone glue, fish glue and rabbit skin glue are the types of
animal glue. These glues are wood working adhesives. Hide glue joints
are reversible and repairable.
The
significant disadvantages of hide glue are its thermal limitations,
short open time, and vulnerability to micro-organisms Rabbit-skin
glue is more flexible when dry than typical hide glues. It is used in
the sizing or priming of oil painters canvases. It also is used in
bookbinding and as the adhesive component of some recipes for gesso
and compo. It is used for footwear applications. Footwear
applications generally involve assembly, bonding and preparation of
sole and related footwear items
The
growing demand for artifacts, paintings and other creative materials
on account of the increasing disposable income is expected to boost
the demand for animal glue. People in Europe are connoisseur of art
and music. Thus the demand for animal glue is comparatively high with
respect to other regions. The adhesives market is expected to be
drive the demand for animal glue. However, animal glues market is
expected to shrink as animal glues dry, giving a potential to harm
wood, paper or works of art. Too much handling and too many changes
in temperature or humidity also cause further harm. In addition,
there is controversy into the production and use of hide glue,
particularly because most animal glue industries prefer using cattle
and horses and thus encourage the slaughter of these animals. Some
companies in Canada produce animal, hide and hoof glues from horses,
even though the slaughter of horses in the Western world is seen as a
negative influence.
Recently,
animal glue has been replaced by other adhesives and plastics, but
remains popular for restoration. Additionally, other adhesives are
expected to take the market share of the natural adhesives such as
animal glues as they can be extensively in the end user industry
such as automobile industry and construction industry where adhesives
and sealants are used in panel lamenting, flooring, insulation,
facades, coating, and lamination amongst other functionalities.
Growing environmental concerns owing to growing carbon footprints
coupled with the volatility in raw material prices has been prompting
market players to develop bio-based adhesives thus shrinking the
market share of animal glues. Bio-based adhesives along with
providing environmental benefits by reducing carbon footprint also
reduce the overall cost of manufacturing adhesives as against their
synthetic counterparts. They are composed of starch, soy and
vegetable oils and can compete at par with petroleum based adhesives.
