Market Definition
Epoxy curing agents are kind of chemical additives added in resins to harden them. There is epoxide functional group in epoxy curing agents. Epoxy curing agent’s choice depends on the base resin and the required toughness. The characteristics such as degree of curing and time depends on different individual epoxy curing agents. Epoxy curing agents are manufactured with extraordinary performance properties for large-scale use in variety of industrial applications. The growing use of epoxy curing agents in the wind energy industry, construction and building, electrical and electronics, and others is rising the demand for epoxy curing agents, which is significantly driving the market’s growth.
Europe Epoxy Curing Agents Market Dynamics
Drivers
- Growing demand of polyamide resin
Polyamides resins are used in large-scale as a curing agents. Polyamide resin is formed by the condensation reaction of dimer acid and polyamine. Polyamides have are capable of curing epoxy resins into highly plasticized rigid thermosetting polymers, as they have high hydrocarbon moiety in their molecules. These cured resins offer high tensile strength, compression, bending strengths and are stiff, strong, due to all these qualities epoxy curing are used widely in various industries which significantly drives the market’s growth.
- Increasing demand in end-use industries
Epoxy curing agents market is fuelled by increasing demand in various industries such as, aerospace, building and construction, power generation, General industrial, marine, oil and gas. In addition, increasing demand for adhesives and coatings in the automotive industry is contributing in the market’s growth during the forecast period of 2023 to 2030. The growing demand of epoxy curing agents in civil engineering applications such as concrete bonding, flooring, and marble laminate are driving the market’s growth.
Opportunities
- Growing use of epoxy curing agents in civil engineering
There is rise in demand for epoxy curing agents market over the past decade. In civil engineering applications aliphatic amines are used widely, such as flooring and patch repair systems. Polyimides are also extensively used owing to its bonding strength. Amines act as an accelerator for other amines. The properties such as low viscosity, good flexibility, and good color stability are benefiting the civil engineering sector. Thus, the growing demand of epoxy curing agents in civil engineering owing to its various properties and qualities is driving the market’s growth.
- Increasing demand in electronics sector
The largest consumer of epoxy curing agents is electrical & electronics industry due to which the demand for epoxy resins is expected to grow significantly and will boost the market’s growth. Electrical & electronics industry is driven by growing demand for printed circuit boards, semiconductors, and other major components.
