Dublin, June 10, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Fatty Amines Market by Type (Primary, Secondary, Tertiary), End Use (Agrochemicals, Oilfield Chemicals, Chemical Processing, Water Treatment, Asphalt Additives, Personal Care), Function, Carbon Chain Length, and Region - Global Forecast to 2030" has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The global fatty amines market is set to expand from USD 3.60 billion in 2025 to USD 4.97 billion by 2030, achieving a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.7% over the forecast period. These nitrogen-rich organic compounds, derived from fatty acids from natural oils and fats, are used across various applications. They function as emulsifiers, dispersants, anti-caking agents, flotation agents, corrosion inhibitors, and chemical intermediates.
Fatty amines play a crucial role in industries such as agrochemicals, oilfield chemicals, personal care, water treatment, asphalt additives, and chemical processing. The rising sector demands are driven by the need for improved crop productivity through agrochemicals, enhanced corrosion protection in industrial infrastructure, and a heightened focus on wastewater treatment due to stringent environmental regulations. Additionally, the growing personal care sector boosts the use of fatty amines in formulations like conditioners and lotions. These factors underscore the essential nature of fatty amines in fostering performance, efficiency, and regulatory compliance across various industries.
Arkema (France), Evonik Industries AG (Germany), Kao Corporation (Japan), Procter & Gamble (US), BASF (Germany), and Nouryon (Netherlands) are significant market players implementing strategic expansions to enhance market share and revenue. The report covers market segmentation by type, carbon chain length, function, end-use, and region, providing information on market growth factors, challenges, opportunities, and competitive developments such as partnerships, agreements, product launches, and joint ventures.
Dispersants Segment Kicks Off with Second-Largest Market Share
The dispersants segment, by function, is projected to hold the second-largest market share by value. This growth trajectory is attributed to its extensive application across high-demand sectors. In the paints & coatings domain, fatty amine-based dispersants ensure product stability and enhance performance. In agriculture, they facilitate effective pesticide and fertilizer delivery. They are also vital in stabilizing drilling and production fluids within the oilfield sector. Rising production of paints, coatings, and agrochemicals, especially in emerging markets, drives this demand. A shift towards bio-based solutions, propelled by environmental awareness, further enhances the adoption of fatty amines as sustainable dispersants.
Secondary Segment Scores Second-Largest Share by Type
Secondary fatty amines are anticipated to hold the second-largest market share by type, driven by their enhanced reactivity and thermal stability. These qualities make them apt for use as intermediates in surfactants, emulsifiers, and corrosion inhibitors. Their utility extends across agrochemicals, personal care, oilfield chemicals, and water treatment, offering resilience to chemical degradation. Industries seeking performance-driven chemical solutions, complemented by versatile formulation adaptability, position secondary fatty amines as integral to market growth.
Oilfield Chemicals Segment Stands Second in Market Share by End Use
In terms of end-use, the oilfield chemicals segment secures the second-largest share by value within the fatty amines market. These compounds are vital in enhancing oil and gas operations' efficiency and safety, acting as corrosion inhibitors, demulsifiers, and scale inhibitors. They provide protective layers on metal surfaces, mitigating corrosion in harsh environments, and stabilize emulsions. The growing energy demand and expansion of upstream and downstream activities fuel the adoption of fatty amines within the oil & gas sector.
North America Claims Second-Largest Regional Market Share
North America is poised to hold the second-largest share regionally within the fatty amines market. This is attributed to the diverse industrial landscape and sustained demand from sectors like agrochemicals, oilfield chemicals, and water treatment. The region's focus on industrial efficiency and stringent environmental regulations further supports fatty amine adoption. North America's advanced manufacturing capabilities and continuous technological innovations drive further product development and application expansion.
