Report Code: CMR 49368 Report Format: PDF + Excel

Cycloaliphatic Amine Curing Agent Market Overview

Cycloaliphatic Amine Curing Agent market size is estimated to reach US$290.4 million by 2027, after growing at a CAGR of 6.5% from 2022-2027. Cycloaliphatic amine curing agent are group of curing agents which have good chemical resistance, low viscosity, and provide good mechanical properties at heat cure temperature. The curing agents are of four main type i.e. piperidine, n aminoethylpiperazine, m xylylenediamine, and Menthanediamine. These curing agents are less volatile than linear aliphatic amines and have broad range of applications, like solvent free coatings, ultra-low emission coatings & floorings, chemically resistant linings, adhesives, electrical encapsulation, and filament winding. Hence, due such technical application, they are used in sectors like automotive, construction, power industry, and electronics. Factors like increase in automotive production, growing construction activities and increase in consumption of semi-conductors are driving the growth of  cycloaliphatic amine curing agent market. However, the toxic nature of some curing agents like m xylylenediamine can lead to various health problems, which can restrict their usage. This can hamper growth of global cycloaliphatic amine curing agent industry.

COVID-19 Impact

COVID-19 left a negative impact on the major end users of curing agents like automotive, construction, electronics, and power sector. The measures taken by countries like implementing lockdown, caused lack of availability of labors and basic raw materials which disrupted the industrial activities. For instance, as per, International Organization of Motor Vehicle Manufacturers, in 2020, global automobile production was 77.7 million units showing decrease of 13%. Also, as per, International Construction and Infrastructure Surveys, the construction and infrastructure activities across all regions went down in Q1 of 2020 with China in the Asia-Pacific region having the sharpest workload contraction. Further, as per World Semiconductor Trade Statistics, in 2020, the first quarter sale of semi-conductor in the U.S decreased by 3.6% compared to the same period in 2019. Cycloaliphatic amine curing agent is used in automotive sector for adhesives, in construction sector for coatings and in electronic sector for electrical encapsulation of semi-conductors. The decrease in productivity in these sectors, negatively impacted the demand of curing agents, which declined the growth of global cycloaliphatic amine curing agent industry.
