Purging compounds are commercial cleaning compounds utilized to clean thermoplastic molding machines and extruders. It contains a base resin and other additives purposed to clean the screw, barrel, and extruder die. Purging compound is also used for removal of color and carbon deposits, cleaning hot runner mold, and color & material changes. Purging compounds clean machines faster and better compared to conventional cleaning methods such as purging with virgin resin or regrind. In addition, their uses have been found to be instrumental in decreasing scrap rates caused by color and polymer changes. These all factors play a crucial role in enhancing process efficiencies and optimizing the entire manufacturing processes associated with thermoplastics. Mechanical purging compounds are used for cleaning of plastic processing machines. Chemicals are used to break down the polymer residue in barrels, screws, and other machines parts, to reduce the molecular weight and viscosity of polymers, which, in turn, helps in flushing them automatically from the machines. Liquid purging compounds are concentrated and water-based additives, and typically act as surfactants that help in the removal of deposits from metal surfaces.

Low chances of wear and tear of the machine, reduction of screw pull, removal of scrap and improvement in the productivity of the machine are the key factors driving the growth of the purging compounds market. Moreover, reduction in the downtime of the machine and avoiding rejection of machine parts are also the additional aspects which are demanding the need of purging compounds. Less time consumption and wide usage of plastic in industries are also driving the growth of the purging compounds market. However, growth of the purging compound market is restrained by high cost of purging compounds. Benefits related to purging compounds such as less scrap, reduced downtime, low production cost, and less material waste is predicted to offer growth opportunities to the market during the forecast period.

The global purging compound market is divided into different segments by type, process, and region. Based on type, the market is segmented into mechanical purge, chemical purge and liquid purge. By process type, the segmentation is done into extrusion, injection molding and blow molding. Based on region, the global purging compound is segmented across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and LAMEA. North America holds the highest market share in the purging compound market.
