The epoxy curing agents market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $6.62 billion in 2025 to $7.25 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.6%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to rising demand for epoxy based coatings in construction and automotive sectors, increasing industrial manufacturing activity, growth in protective coatings for corrosion resistance, early adoption of high performance adhesives in aerospace applications, expansion of electronics manufacturing requiring durable encapsulation materials.
The epoxy curing agents market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $10.29 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.2%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to growing shift toward low voc and sustainable chemical formulations, increasing demand from electric vehicle and renewable energy infrastructure, advancement in high temperature resistant epoxy systems, rising use in wind energy and lightweight composites, expansion of aerospace and defense advanced material applications. Major trends in the forecast period include low voc water based epoxy curing systems for sustainable coatings, high performance cycloaliphatic amine curing agents for thermal resistance applications, bio based epoxy curing agents for eco friendly industrial formulations, fast curing polyamide systems for automotive and aerospace bonding, nanotechnology enhanced curing agents for improved mechanical strength and durability.
The expansion of the electrical and electronics industry is expected to drive the growth of the epoxy curing agents market going forward. The electrical and electronics industry refers to the sector involved in manufacturing devices and systems that operate using electricity. Growth in the electrical and electronics industry is being fueled by the increasing adoption of smart devices and industrial automation, which is boosting demand for electronic components, circuit boards, sensors, and power management systems across consumer, industrial, and commercial applications. Epoxy curing agents support the electrical and electronics industry by enhancing the strength, insulation properties, and thermal resistance of epoxy materials used in components, ensuring reliable operation, electrical protection, and extended durability of electronic devices and systems. For instance, in March 2026, according to Gov.UK, a UK-based government agency, exports from the electronic and electrical equipment industry increased from £16.0 billion (US$21.6 billion) in 2023 to £16.4 billion (US$22.1 billion) in 2024.
