Growth in demand for resins and water treatment markets drives the growth of the ethyleneamine market

Ethyleneamine refers to acyclic polymer products of ethylenediamine. As an important fine chemical intermediate, ethyleneamine is used in organic synthesis, medicine, dyes, pesticides, chemical additives, rubber plastic additives, organic solvents and Epoxy resin curing agents are widely used in fields such as

Industrial Research Center issued the 2023 Global and China B “In-depth research report on the ethylene amine industry” shows that the global ethylene amine market size may grow from US$2.27 billion in 2023 to US$2.85 billion in 2028, with a compound annual growth rate of 4.66%. Rising demand for ethyleneamine in downstream applications such as resins, adhesives, paper, automotive, water treatment and pharmaceuticals is a major factor driving the growth of this market.

​ ​ ​Ethylenediamine will become the largest segmented product

Ethylenediamine is widely used in many fields such as adhesives, pharmaceuticals, agriculture and chemicals, and is suitable for a variety of processes, such as corrosion inhibition, acting as a chelating agent, etc. One of the outstanding features of ethylenediamine is its chelating properties, which enable it to form stable complexes with metal ions. For processes that require metal extraction, purification or stabilization, ethylenediamine is very important. Its applications range from water treatment to heavy metals. Ion removal, etc. A prominent application of ethylenediamine is the production of epoxy resins, which are widely used in construction, automotive and electronics. Ethylenediamine can be used as a curing agent. The curing process of ethylenediamine makes the epoxy resin durable, bonding strength and chemical resistance, broadening the application fields of epoxy resin.

         Resin will become the largest downstream application area

Resin is the most important application field of ethylene amines. The main reason is that ethylene amines are highly reactive, especially those with multiple amine groups, such as diethylenetriamine (DETA) and triethylenetetramine ( TETA), can easily cross-link with various polymer chains. In terms of resins, this cross-linking ability can be used to create highly durable and structurally stable materials, so ethyleneamine is very suitable for use in the resin field.

Cross-linking of polymer chains via an amine-epoxy reaction improves tensile strength, toughness and impact resistance. Resins modified with ethylene amine exhibit excellent mechanical properties. These enhancements are particularly useful in industries such as the automotive industry. value. In addition, ethyleneamines act as effective adhesion promoters, forming strong bonds between resins and substrates, which is also important in coatings and adhesive applications.

             The Asia-Pacific region will become the world’s largest regional market

Various economic indicators in the Asia-Pacific region are showing a growth trend, and multiple manufacturing centers have emerged in the region, making the Asia-Pacific region an industrial application center for ethylene amines. For example, ethylene amine in the Asia-Pacific region is mainly used in resin production and epoxy resin curing agents. The Asia-Pacific region’s increasing emphasis on environmental sustainability has promoted the adoption of water treatment processes, in which ethylene amine is used as a chelating agent. Adding to the growth of the ethyleneamine market size in Asia Pacific.

Key players in the global ethyleneamines market include Huntsman Corporation (US), Dow Corporation (US), Tosoh Corporation (Japan), Nouryon (Netherlands), BASF AG (Germany), Diamines and Chemicals Ltd ( India), SABIC (Saudi Arabia), Balaji Specialty Chemicals Limited (India), Donglian Chemical Co., Ltd. (Taiwan, China), Kanto Chemical Co., Inc (Japan).
