Hello again Blucken and thanks for your question.
According to PGPhillips, the North American structural adhesives
market is approximately $1.449 billion and 535MM pounds.
An excerpt from questions and answers with Phil Phillips:
Market Value
Semi-structural and Structural adhesives represent less than three
percent of the volume of the adhesives and sealants market in North
America but more than 16% of its value.
PGPHILLIPS assesses the North American total Structural Adhesive
market to be approximately $1.449 billion and 535MM pounds. This
allows for an average selling price at the end user level of $2.71 per
pound. The overall growth rate for this segment is approximately 4.9%
over the next five years.

According to Structural Adhesives Technology Analyst, Michael Adeogun:
Structural adhesives based on epoxy, urethane, acrylic, and other
high-temperature polymers have use in joining materials in aircraft/
aerospace, automotive, electrical/electronics, building/construction,
and consumer/appliance applications.
He goes on to say:
Profitability of structural adhesives producers is above average for
all specialty-chemical business areas and is likely to improve still
further for those companies that are technology leaders and innovative
marketers, particularly in aerospace/aircraft, transportation, and
electrical/electronics applications. Producers must offer competitive
products, quality, and technical service. Adhesive bonding of
structural components in high-volume manufacturing operations is
becoming practical and offers much opportunity. The importance of
adhesives continues to grow with the many new advances in adhesives
technology and the use of adhesives is growing across all industries.

Specialty/engineering adhesives to lead gains
The market's strongest gains are forecast for specialty and
engineering adhesives, a segment dominated by reactive adhesives such
as polyurethanes, epoxies and cyanoacrylates. These adhesives are
finding greater use in construction, motor vehicle and durables
manufacturing, often at the expense of conventional fasteners. Solid
gains for higher priced specialty and engineering adhesives will do
much to promote overall gains in market value for the US adhesives
industry, which is forecast to reach $10.5 billion in 2004.
