Rising Demand for Polymer Applications to Drive Global Styrene-Butadiene-Styrene (SBS) Block Copolymer Market, According to a New Report by Global Industry Analysts, Inc.

Uncategorized No Responses »

May 162012

San Jose, California (PRWEB) May 03, 2012

Follow us on LinkedIn Styrene-Butadiene-Styrene block copolymer (SBS) is a unique copolymer with extensive application, largest output, and lowest cost. SBS offers excellent surface friction coefficient, little permanent deformation, great tensile strength, excellent low-temperature behavior, great workability and good electric property. The polymer is extensively used in applications such as shoemaking, asphalt modification, polymer modification, liquid seal materials, waterproof coatings, electric wires, automobile components, electric cables and medical apparatuses among several others. Currently the SBS market continues to face crunch emanating from rising prices of crude oil. The effect of such volatility on end-use applications and regional downstream markets is particularly significant as the industry derives its raw material from the petrochemical industry. Conditions in almost all parts of the world including the Middle East, Eastern Europe, Asia, North and South America, as well as Africa have an increasing global implication on supply and demand for petrochemicals and raw materials. However, the prospects for the global Styrene-Butadiene-Styrene (SBS) Block Copolymer and its development continue to appear positive. SBS sales are expected to increase as a result of global expansion in the compounding and adhesive applications, as well as due to the enhanced penetration of modified asphalts into roadway and roofing construction.

The polymer industry continued to be under pressure driven by supply and pricing dynamics in early 2011. With the supply of raw materials such as butadiene remaining tight and demand improving, the industry currently faces difficulty in competing against other higher-margin industries for supply. Butadiene prices are expected to increase further in future along with a steady rise in demand, which is expected to further spike the prices for styrene-butadiene-styrene (SBS). SBS prices climbed up by 18% in 2010. During the 1st quarter of 2011, prices increased by 5% and are further expected to climb by 5% each quarter for the remaining year. With the price of natural latex rubber reaching new highs in recent years, the industry is witnessing a continuous shift in the tire manufacturing industry, towards styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) and styrene-isoprene-styrene (SIS). This is expected to further drive the demand for butadiene, hence scaling up the prices for SBS.

Asphalt Modification is the largest end-use application area for SBS in terms of volume sales. SBS is an effective asphalt modifier that is utilized in road asphalt modification and modified asphalt waterproof coiled material. SBS finds extensive application in wall bodies of several structures such as bathrooms, toilets, basements, bridges, cold storage chambers, airports, commercial buildings, highways, high-volume interstates, intersections and others. Market for polymer modification holds substantial potential for the SBS market and finds extensive application in vehicle steering wheels/bumpers, sealing parts and electric components. Polymer modification improves the environmental impact of road construction by enabling lesser need for raw materials and creating a safer and more durable road surface.

Asia-Pacific dominates the global sphere as the single largest and fastest growing regional market for SBS both in value and volume terms, as stated by the new market research report on Styrene-Butadiene-Styrene (SBS) Block Copolymer. The fastest growth in demand for styrene is forecast in the Middle East, China, Eastern and Central Europe, and Central and South America. On the basis of the current announcements for capacity expansion, Mexico, Thailand, India together with other Asian countries are expected to remain the net importers while the US, Japan, Canada, Singapore, the Middle East, and the Republic of Korea, are likely to remain net exporters until 2013.

Key players profiled in the report include China National Petroleum Corporation, Dexco Polymers LP, Dynasol Elastomers, Kraton Performance Polymers, LCY Chemical Corp, Polimeri Europa, ShenZhen Yanshan Petrochemical, Sinopec Baling Company Petrochemical Co., among others.

The research report titled Styrene-Butadiene-Styrene (SBS) Block Copolymer: A Global Strategic Business Report announced by Global Industry Analysts Inc., provides a strategic overview of the market, key trends, end-use applications, recent product introductions, strategic corporate initiatives, and profiles of key market participants. The report provides annual sales estimates and projections for Styrene-Butadiene-Styrene Block Copolymer market for the years 2009 through 2017, and 2003 to 2008 both in value (US$ ) and volume (tons) terms by the following geographic markets – US, Canada, Japan, Europe, AsiaPacific, and Rest of World. Key end-use segments analyzed include Adhesives, Sealants, and Coatings; Asphalt Modification; Polymer Modification; and Others.

Global Watches Market to Reach US$46.6 Billion, While Clocks Market to Record US$5.4 Billion by 2017, According to a New Report by Global Industry Analysts, Inc.

Uncategorized No Responses »

May 132012

San Jose, California (PRWEB) April 13, 2012

Follow us on LinkedIn The recent economic recession has brought about a significant demographic change in the demand for luxury watches, as the momentum in the market shifted away from developed markets such as US and Europe to developing regions such as Asia-Pacific and Latin America even in countries such as Saudi Arabia, and UAE. Booming economies, increase in income levels and discretionary spending in most of the developing markets, particularly China, India, and Brazil are driving demand for expensive watches and clocks in these regions. Limited edition watches developed by leading brands such as Patek Philippe, Rolex, Richard Mille and Cartier have witnessed tremendous demand particularly in emerging markets. Piaget, registered single-digit growth in 2009 despite economic recession, mainly due to demand for its range of luxury watches in emerging economies. After posting significant decline in dollar sales in 2009, Luxury watches market in Europe and the US is now steadily regaining lost ground, owing to resurgence in global economy. With improvement in discretionary incomes, consumers are gradually shifting from away considering watches as once-in-a-lifetime purchase to buying wide array of watches to complement outfits, hobbies and their social status. The products gaining major importance are the ones with fashion statement complemented with simple designs. Various materials in different colors and finishing are used for housing and casing and for wristbands such as leather, plastic, metal and wood. In the EU, where nickel is banned for use in watches, stainless steel requiring no electroplating shows a growing demand. Digital sports watches are also gaining market share on the grounds of sport-related promotional campaigns and growing health awareness.

Rising income levels and increasing purchasing power of many young affluent professionals provides an opportunity for watch manufacturers to tap substantial demand for ultra luxury watches. As an effort towards this end, global luxury-watch brands are competing with each other to introduce innovative watches with new technology, design and materials. Key luxury watch companies across the globe are focusing on meeting all the necessary prerequisites for competing with the Swiss manufacturers such as Rolex, Swatch Group and Richemont, which lord over luxury watch segment. Presenting watches that feature advanced capabilities such as use of robots, hi-tech coating, and advanced materials such as ceramics and titanium, Swiss manufacturers have set a standard in luxury watches market. Switzerland continues to reign as a worldwide leader in watch production, banking on strength of its luxury watch business. Swiss watches are preferred for their high quality and low cost. Asia, particularly, Japan and Singapore are major markets for Swiss watches.

Price of watches depend upon the material used for making watches. For instance, the watches made by using electronic gadgets will cost lesser than the watch made by using non-electronic materials such as diamonds, gold or silver. The cost of electronic watches ranges from US$ 50 to US$ 100, while the cost of diamond watches is in thousands of dollars. Watches in luxury (US$ 1000-US$ 5000 pricing category garnering a substantial share of the market, lost their sheen during 2009, especially in mature markets such as US and Europe as consumers found it difficult to justify big spending. In direct contrast to the scenario, mass (Under $ 50) priced watches are fared relatively better than the expensive versions during recession. Steady sales of mass-priced watches, including plastic watches stand testimony to the recession induced change in consumer perspective over purchase of watches and clocks. However, given that the consumers search for a sturdy value proposition is a common thread that runs through all market segments, expensive watches featuring bold and innovative themes continued to find buyers despite difficult economic conditions, while classic watches found demand as collectors items.

Europe represents the largest worldwide market, spurred by consumer confidence, emerging fashion trends and new product developments, as stated by the new market research report on Watches and Clocks. The European market is led by analog timepieces and demand for clocks, watches and components are mainly driven by fashion trends rather than technological developments. Innovations therefore, are mainly in the form of design changes. Asia-Pacific, led by China, Hong Kong, India, Taiwan and others is forecast to record the fastest gains at a strong CAGR of 3.6% though 2017.

Get More Out of the VA Home Loan Process – FAQs & Rates Made Simple by Security America Mortgage, Inc. for Potential Veteran Homeowners in Sunny California

Uncategorized No Responses »

May 102012

Texas, Florida, Colorado, California (PRWEB) April 18, 2012

The newest VA Mortgage Experts are spreading VA Home Loans out to Veterans across the nation and were recently licensed in another state, which is Sunny California. To no surprise at all, the mortgage company named “Security America Mortgage, Inc.”, continues to bring a smile to the faces of many Americans who served the United States Armed Forces with honor, and all by helping military members obtain the home of their dreams.

Recently, the company aided Veterans with answers to some serious questions concerning the VA home loan process. Below are some common VA Loan FAQs that Veterans and Military Members still in Active Duty usually get stumped on.

The first question commonly asked is probably the easiest one to answer, which is, “How much is my VA Entitlement?” The answer is as simple as this: For all military members, their basic VA entitlement is $ 36,000. For VA loans in excess of $ 144,000 to purchase or construct a home, additional entitlement up to an amount equal to 25 percent of the VA county loan limit for a single family home may be available. This VA loan limit can change yearly. VA county loan limits for 2009 are available at this link. The conforming loan limit for 2008 is $ 417,000 ($ 625,500 for Hawaii, Alaska, Guam and U.S. Virgin Islands). What this means is that all qualified veterans could get a no down payment purchase home loan for the listed amounts.

The next question during the VA Home Loan Process is, “How do I get a Certificate of Eligibility?”

At Security America Mortgage, as with most VA lenders with websites, it may be possible to obtain a Certificate of Eligibility online using a common “Get Started” form. Most lenders have access to the Web LGY system too, which is an internet based application that establishes eligibility AND issues an online Certificate of Eligibility in a matter of a few seconds. However, not all cases can be processed through Web LGY – only those for which VA has sufficient data in our records.

For Veterans who like to take the more independent role can also apply for a Certificate of Eligibility by submitting a completed VA Form 26-1880, Request For A Certificate of Eligibility, to the Winston-Salem Eligibility Center, and including their proof of military service (DD214).

And now for the BIG question that scares many potential VA homeowners away falls under the phrase, “How do I obtain a VA Home Loan?”

The simplified steps to obtaining a VA Home Loan are as follows:

1. Select a home and discuss the purchase with the seller or selling agent. Sign a purchase contract conditioned on approval of your VA home loan.

2. Select a lender, present them with your Certificate of Eligibility if available, and complete a loan application. The lender can also obtain a Certificate of Eligibility on your behalf.

3. The lender will develop all credit and income information. They will also request VA to assign a licensed appraiser to determine the reasonable value for the property. A Certificate of Reasonable

4. Value will be issued. Note: You may be required to pay for the credit report and appraisal unless the seller agrees to pay.

5. The lender will let you know the decision on the loan. You should be approved if the established value and your credit and income are acceptable.

6. You (and spouse) attend the loan closing. The lender or closing attorney will explain the loan terms and requirements as well as where and how to make the monthly payments. Sign the note, mortgage, and other related papers.

The benefits of a VA home loan often come up as soon as veterans realize how easy obtaining a VA Home Loan is. Many who apply may even ask, “What’s the Catch”? The catch is a Big Fish made of; Equal opportunity. No down payment requirements. Buyers who are informed of reasonable value. Negotiable and flexible interest rates. The ability to finance the VA funding fee.

Closing costs are by far better than other home loan financing types.

Other VA Home Loan Benefits include: No mortgage insurance premiums. An assumable mortgage. Right to prepay without penalty. For homes inspected by VA during construction, a warranty from builder and assistance from VA to obtain cooperation of builder. VA assistance to veteran borrowers in default due to temporary financial difficulty, and so on, and so forth.

The last step is qualifying for a VA home loan. At this point questions come up, like, “May a veteran join with a non veteran who is not his or her spouse in obtaining a VA loan?” Besides the fact that the VA guaranty is based only on the veteran’s portion of the home loan, the answer is still a surprising, yes! Unlike other home loans like FHA and conventional, mortgage lenders must submit joint VA home loans to VA for approval before they are accepted for a mortgage finance.

To learn more about buying a home in Texas, Florida, Colorado, and California, contacting a VA Loan Expert for free is the best route to take when taking the first step.

Growing Base of Mobile Computing Devices Drives the Global Mobile Software Market, According to New Report by Global Industry Analysts, Inc.

Uncategorized No Responses »

May 062012

San Jose, California (PRWEB) March 26, 2012

Follow us on LinkedIn Mobile software, a key enabler of advanced sophistication and functionality of mobile computing devices, represents a healthy market with growth closely tied to sales of mobile computing devices, such as, smartphones, enterprise digital assistants (EDAs), personal digital assistants (PDAs), handheld computers, among others. Spiraling sales of smartphones is spawning opportunities for the creation of numerous new software applications ranging from security software to latest mobile apps revolving around device customization, internet connectivity, mobile collaboration, and other mobile computer related activities. Modern mobile communications industry is flooded with apps, driven by growing ubiquity of mobile computing devices, app stores, and the continuous battle among device manufacturers to provide unmatched user experiences.

Mobile web applications are forecast to witness the fastest growth in the upcoming years thanks to the increasing use of mobile Internet for Web 2.0 social networking, collaborative and video applications. About 70% of mobile users are expected to use mobile Internet services on a daily basis in the coming years, particularly in the US and Europe. Mobile Internet is widely used for a wide range of online activities that include search, accessing information on sports and news, downloading ring tones, city guides or maps, videos and music, emailing, instant messaging, blogging, visiting social networking websites, among others. Strong growth is expected to stem from the BRIC countries, comprising Brazil, India, China and Russia. There exists vast potential for growth in these regions, given the fact that despite the lower mobile penetration rate, the proportion of mobile internet users as a percentage of mobile subscribers is considerably high.

In the operating system (OS) software market segment, especially in the smartphone sub-sector, Google’s Android, Microsoft’s Windows Phone, RIM’s BlackBerry OS, Samsung’s Bada, Nokia’s Symbian, Maemo and MeeGo, Apple’s iOS, and Linux, and Palm/HP’s WebOS currently dominate the market. The market is characterized by constant product introductions, evolving technologies and design approaches, short product life cycles, aggressive pricing practices, rapid imitation of product and technological advancements, and price sensitivity of consumers.

While the global consumer electronics industry continues to recover, as is indicated by the robustly recovering demand for mobile devices and gadgets, the industry in Europe currently remains nervous about the play out of the sovereign debt crisis drama. Consumer spending, which continues to remain a key pillar of growth in the market, remains volatile and sensitive to shocks. The market, in the Eurozone area, is facing immediate hurdles, such as, credit restriction, consumer indecisiveness and fears of possible collapse of consumer confidence in the event of escalation in the severity of the debt crisis. Amid conflicting news on the success of Europes band-aid strategy of containing the crisis, market sentiments continue to swing between hope and concerns. For instance, Greece has been kept afloat by its fellow eurozone countries and the rescue packages has and will continue to help the country avoid a sovereign default on its bond payments into the short-term. Although these short-term solutions do not provide a permanent solution to the crisis and in reality indicates deferring of conclusive, corrective action, market sentiments are nevertheless encouraged.

In Europe, the debt crisis is triggering increased price sensitivity among Eurozone countries. There exist signs of a distinct shift in consumer demand towards lower priced products, as is indicated by the robustly waxing sales of cheaper Android based smartphones and Apples steady decline in market share. The trend reflects a shift in consumer purchasing patterns towards low cost models as a result of the pressure exerted by the debt crisis. The impact of the debt crisis until now has only been reflected in the realignment of consumer demand from the premium tier of the market to mid-and- mass market tier. The trend marks an actual expansion in the market at the low-end thus counterbalancing the decline being witnessed in the high-end premium tier. Demand for mobile software is therefore expected to remain steady into the immediate future.

As stated by the new market research report on Mobile Software, Asia- Pacific represents the largest market worldwide. The region is also forecast to emerge into the fastest growing market with a projected CAGR of 16.1% over the analysis period. Mobile Device Management (MDM) Software is expected to experience the strongest growth at a CAGR of 23.3% over the analysis period.

Major players in the marketplace include ACCESS Co. Ltd., Apple Inc., Electronic Arts Inc., Google Inc., InnoPath Software Inc., Microsoft Corporation, MFormation Technologies Inc., Nokia Corporation, Red Bend Software Inc., Research In Motion Limited, Smith Micro Software Inc., Sybase Inc., among others.
