Waterborne Curing Agents Market

Waterborne curing agents Market: Introduction

Waterborne curing agents have gained the attention of coatings & adhesives formulators as these pose various advantages. These include minimal toxicity, environment-friendly, inflammability, and long pot life, among others. Waterborne curing agents are thus becoming the priority of manufacturers as they are used across a number of end-use industries including building & construction, automotive & transportation, electrical & electronics, etc. Thus, the global waterborne curing agents market is expected to foray ahead with a higher single-digit CAGR over the forecast period of 2019-2029.

Waterborne curing agents are in demand as they pose low volatile organic compounds (VOC) levels and hazardous air pollutants (HAP) emissions. Moreover, technological advancements within the curing agents along with growth in end-user industries are providing a boost to the global waterborne curing agents market. However, some of the issues faced by formulators with waterborne curing agents are more curing time, lack of final gloss, limited application thickness, and others. All such factors are in turn acting as a restraining factor for the market growth over the forecast period (2019-2029).
