The epoxy diluents market is projected to reach USD 1.86 billion by 2031 from USD 1.42 billion in 2026, at a CAGR of 5.5%. The growth in the epoxy diluents market is attributed to a greater demand for efficient coatings, adhesives, sealants, and composite materials in the building and construction, automotive, aerospace, and industrial manufacturing sectors. Increasing investments in infrastructure construction and increasing demand for protective coatings are encouraging the usage of epoxy formulations that provide better workability and application efficiency. The increasing demand for anti-corrosion coatings in the marine and energy generation sectors also favors the growth of the epoxy diluents market. The growing demand for lightweight composite materials in automotive and aerospace applications is also increasing the demand for epoxy systems. The developments in bio-based diluents and low-viscosity diluents are also leading to the development of formulations that have better processing properties and eco-friendliness.
The epoxy diluents market is dominated by key manufacturers, including Westlake Corporation (US), Huntsman (US), Evonik Industries AG (Germany), Olin Corporation (US), Aditya Birla Chemicals (India), Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation (Japan), KUKDO CHEMICAL CO., LTD. (South Korea), ITOCHU CHEMICAL FRONTIER Corporation (Japan), SACHEM Inc (US), PCC Group (Germany), EMS-CHEMIE HOLDING AG (Switzerland), KUMHO PETROCHEMICAL (South Korea), Atul Ltd (India), and Cardolite Corporation (US), among others. From January 2023 to July 2026, these players pursued product launches, deals, and expansions to expand their market share and global reach. In June 2025, the Aditya Birla Group, through its subsidiary Aditya Birla Chemicals (USA) Inc., acquired Cargill's 17-acre facility in Dalton, Georgia, for the manufacturing of specialty chemicals. The acquisition helped the company increase its footprint in the Advanced Materials segment. Reactive diluents, epoxy resins, formulated resins, curing agents, and polyaspartic resins for marine, industrial coatings, and flooring applications were produced at the plant.
