Introduction

Anti-fog additives are non-ionic surfactants that are utilized for minimizing the formation of fog on sheets. In addition to this, forming of fog is owing to vapor condensation on any of the surfaces due to humidity, temperature difference, and surface tension. Furthermore, additives of anti-fog assist in the reduction of surface tension of dewdrops that are seen on the sheets formed as a result of water vapors condensation.

Moreover, Antifog Additives can be availed in cream form, gels, and wet wipes. Additionally, the products used as Antifog Additives include hydrophilic nanoparticles, surfactants, and hydrophilic coatings. In addition to this, Antifog Additives are made up of hydroxyl as well as non-polar tail embedding a chain of hydrocarbon atoms inside it.


Market Growth Dynamics

Anti-fog additives alleviate the clouding impact and thereby enhance the sheet transparency. Apart from this, these products find lucrative applications in concentrates while producing plastic films. All these above-mentioned aspects are likely to steer the market growth over the forecast timeline.

Furthermore, escalating product demand in food packaging & farming activities and manufacturing of additives in the cost-effective way will accelerate the growth rate of the Antifog Additives industry over the upcoming years. Moreover, Antifog Additives are used in mirrors, automotive, and optical glasses due to its ability to enhance the visibility and minimize the fog. The product is also used for preserving food and is ideal for plant growth by hampering the fog formation.
