Epoxy Curing Agent Market – Market Overview
Epoxy is a colloquial name used for epoxide functional group. Epoxy Resin is polymeric chemical compound consisting two of more epoxide groups. Curing agent is an additive that helps in toughening or hardening of a polymer material by cross-linking of polymer chains, brought about by electron beams, heat, or chemical additives. After curing, Epoxy Resin has excellent properties on mechanical strength, chemical resistance, and electrical insulation. The different types of curing agent available in the market are Amines, Polyamide, Imidazoles, Polymercaptan, Anhydrides, and Polymercaptan, among others.
The major applications of Epoxy Curing Agent can found in coatings, construction, adhesives, composites, wind energy, electrical & electronics. The growth of the market is primarily driven by the growing construction activities, rapid urbanization and robust growth of composites market around the world. The emerging economies are investing significant share of their GDP in the infrastructural development, defence and marine sector. Coating is the largest application of Epoxy Curing Agents with its major use in numerous industrial applications in order to protect the metal from corrosion and other harms.
