ISOPHORONEDIAMINE MARKET REPORT OVERVIEW

The global isophoronediamine market size was USD 0.70 billion in 2024 and the market is projected to touch USD 0.86 billion by 2033 at a CAGR of 2.4% during the forecast period.

Isophoronediamine (IPDA) is a specialty chemical compound primarily used as a curing agent in the production of epoxy resins, which are widely used in various industries, including automotive, construction, electronics, and coatings. It is known for its high-performance characteristics, including excellent chemical resistance, thermal stability, and adhesion properties.

The market is driven by factors including growing demand for epoxy coatings and adhesives in construction, automotive, and aerospace industries, increasing use of polyurethane materials in various applications, including automotive, furniture, and construction, rising interest in high-performance polymers for specialized applications.

COVID-19 IMPACT

"Pandemic Hampered the Market Demand Due toSupply Chain Disruptions"

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with market experiencing lower-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden rise in CAGR is attributable to the market's growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels once the pandemic is over.

The COVID-19 pandemic disrupted global supply chains, including those in the chemical industry. Lockdowns, travel restrictions, and labor shortages impacted the production and transportation of chemicals and raw materials. The demand for chemicals varied depending on their end-use industries. Some industries, like pharmaceuticals and healthcare, experienced increased demand for certain chemicals, while others, like automotive and construction, saw a decline in demand due to reduced economic activity. Price volatility was a common occurrence in the chemical industry during the pandemic. Factors such as supply disruptions, fluctuations in demand, and changes in raw material prices influenced chemical prices. Some chemical companies shifted their production to meet the increased demand for essential chemicals, including those used in pharmaceuticals, sanitizers, and personal protective equipment (PPE). As the pandemic evolved and vaccination efforts progressed, some chemical markets began to recover. However, the pace and extent of recovery varied by region and industry.

DRIVING FACTORS

"Rising Demand for Polyurethane Coatings to Drive Market Growth"

IPDA is also used in the production of polyurethane coatings, which are extensively used for corrosion protection, aesthetics, and durability in applications such as automotive coatings, industrial machinery, and architectural coatings. Increasing environmental regulations and a growing focus on sustainable products drive the development of eco-friendly coatings and adhesives. IPDA can be used in the formulation of low-VOC (volatile organic compounds) coatings, which align with environmental standards. This is a significant driver of the isophoronediamine market growth.

"Growth in the Electronics Industry to Accelerate Market Demand"

Isophoronediamine is used in the production of electronic components and printed circuit boards. The growth of the electronics industry, driven by advancements in technology and increased consumer demand, can stimulate the demand for IPDA. Environmental concerns and regulations have led to a shift towards waterborne coatings, which often use IPDA as a key component. As environmental regulations become stricter, the demand for IPDA in waterborne coatings may increase.

RESTRAINING FACTORS

"Price Volatility to Restrict Market Growth "

The price of IPDA can be subject to fluctuations due to factors like raw material costs, supply-demand dynamics, and geopolitical events. This price volatility can affect the profitability of manufacturers and downstream users. Isophoronediamine is primarily used in specific industries such as coatings, adhesives, and composites. Its limited application scope can be a restraint, as it is not widely used in other sectors, limiting its market potential.
