One of the primary factors driving the growth of the Epoxy resin market CAGR is the growing demand for paint and coatings in various end-use sectors. Epoxy resin-based paints and coatings are commonly used in architecture, automobile OEMs, automotive refinishing, marine coating, industrial coating, wood painting, coil coating, transportation coating, fiber optics coating, and other applications. Paint and coatings are used to coat the interior and exterior surfaces of any object, protecting them from severe temperatures, UV radiation, cracks, stains, chemicals, and blisters. Epoxy resin-based paints and varnishes contain low levels of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) and provide outstanding anti-corrosion resistance and adhesion. As a result of these qualities, it is used in a wide range of industries, including residential, commercial, and infrastructure construction, healthcare, electronics devices, shipbuilding, automotive and transportation, and industrial and wastewater treatment plants. The expansion of the end-use industry will eventually drive up demand for paint and coatings. As a result, increasing firms will eventually expand the market size over the projection period.
According to epoxy resin market dynamics, the demand for consumer goods such as smartphones, wireless entertainment devices, gaming consoles, and others is expanding due to technological improvements and their use in daily activities. For example, according to Invest India, the worldwide electronic devices industry is estimated to be worth over USD 2.9 trillion in 2020 and will continue to increase in the following years as digitization and the Internet of Things progress. As a result, demand for technological devices and consumer products, as well as demand for paint and coatings, will increase over time. Additionally, the increase in the aerospace and defense industries is hastening market growth. According to the Aerospace Industry Association, sales in the US aerospace industry climbed by 2.1% in 2021, while exports increased by 11.2%. The expansion of the aerospace and defense industries will raise demand for paint and coatings throughout aircraft development and maintenance. The expanding firms will eventually increase market size during the predicted time. Thus, driving the India Epoxy Resins market revenue.
The India Epoxy Resins Market segmentation, based on raw material, includes DGBEA (Bisphenol A and ECH), DGBEF (Bisphenol F and ECH), Novolac (Formaldehyde and Phenols), Aliphatic (Aliphatic Alcohols), Glycidylamine (Aromatic Amines and ECH) and Other Raw Materials. The DGBEA (Bisphenol A and ECH) category holds a considerable part of the Epoxy Resins Market. DGBEA is one of the most frequently used raw ingredients in the production of epoxy resin. It has superior mechanical qualities, chemical resistance, and adhesion, making it a popular choice in a variety of sectors. Its versatility and broad variety of applications lead to its significant market presence.
The India Epoxy Resins Market segmentation, based on Application, includes Paints and Coatings, Adhesives and Sealants, Composites, Electrical and Electronics and Other Applications. The paints and coatings category dominated the market in 2023. Epoxy resin-based paints and coatings are widely used in residential and commercial structures, shipbuilding industries, and automobile and wastewater treatment plants, among other places, because of their outstanding resistance to stains, cracks, extreme temperatures, blistering, and chemicals. They have great adhesion, high anti-corrosion performance, and low Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) levels. Epoxy resin-based paints and coatings are used to protect the inside and exterior surfaces of commercial, residential, institutional, and industrial structures.
