The worldwide market for polyetheramine was valued at USD 600 million in 2022 and is predicted to reach USD 1.5 billion in 2028, with a CAGR of 9.1% from 2023-2028.
Polyetheramines (PEA) are curing agents produced by the reaction of ether and amine. The ether-containing bond, known as a polyether, reacts with an amino group to produce polyetheramine. PEA is primarily employed as an epoxy resin curing agent to produce epoxy composites and coatings. It has superior physical properties such as high toughness, flexibility, and low viscosity. Additionally, PEA has a long service life and therefore finds applications in hot melt adhesives, sealants, and engineering compounds. Furthermore, it exhibits hydrophobicity or hydrophilicity depending on the final product formed. It is commercially available in liquid form with an odor similar to that of amines.
The main reason for the market expansion is the growing call for the product in countries such as Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, and India. The Asia Pacific region is predicted to be the fastest-growing market during the foreseen period for polyetheramine. This growing call is due to the escalating need for end-user applications such as agriculture, construction, automotive, adhesives, sealants, paints, and coatings. The developed economies of the United Kingdom and the United States are gradually heading toward recovery from weak economic conditions and improving market calls for polyetheramines.
The growing concern for renewable energy sources such as wind power and the escalating consumption of polyether amines in the production of light compounds such as wind turbine blades are the main expansion engine of the worldwide market. The polyetheramine market is predicted to experience strong expansion due to the expansion of end-user industries. The increase in the use of polyetheramine compounds in the wind power industry over the past few years is predicted to drive the market during the foreseen period. In terms of type, the diamine segment is predicted to see strong expansion due to the escalating use of wind turbine blade composites. The escalated call for renewable energy is driving the market for the wind industry. This, in turn, is predicted to boost the polyetheramine market over the foreseen period. The main factors on which the expansion of the polyetheramine market is said to depend are the market penetration in the polyetheramine consuming industries and the considerable expansion in polyetheramine applications. end-users. The escalating call for many epoxy composites and coatings is predicted to increase the need for polyetheramine in the world. Besides, factors that are likely to drive polyetheramine consumption shortly are: local end-user production escalated industrial manufacturing expansion and the ever-growing population of developing economies. The cement additive and acid neutralization industry is also believed to contribute to the growing market call for polyetheramine.
Growing environmental concerns regarding the removal of polyetheramine, along with government regulations on the health risks associated with epoxy coatings, such as skin sensitization, are the main factors restricting the expansion of the worldwide market.
The escalating importance of polyetheramine rubber-type epoxy asphalt compounds is likely to create lucrative opportunities for players in the construction industry market. Escalating populations in emerging countries, expansion in the manufacturing industry, and escalated local production for end-use are predicted to boost consumption of polyetheramines. The expansion of industries such as cement additives and acid neutralization is also predicted to increase the market for polyetheramine. The considerable expansion of the coatings industry is predicted to stimulate the call for polyetheramine. Additionally, the substantial expansion of elastomers, sealants, and adhesives is also predicted to increase the call for polyetheramine during the foreseen period. Therefore, the wide range of applications and the following end-user industry is predicted to drive the market for polyetheramine. The expansion of polyetheramine end-user industries in the Asia-Pacific region is predicted to be the largest market region for polyetheramine.
The immediate availability of bio-based products for epoxy coatings and organics is likely to represent a significant challenge for polyetheramine producers. Additionally, acidic epoxy coatings employed for floors can cause cracks and chips, posing an additional challenge for polyetheramine producers.
