Global Industrial Polyethyleneimine Market Growth 2025-2031
The global Industrial Polyethyleneimine market size is predicted to grow from US$ 500 million in 2025 to US$ 597 million in 2031; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 3.0% from 2025 to 2031.
Polyethyleneimine (PEI) is a polymer characterized by repeating units of amine groups linked by two carbon aliphatic CH₂CH₂ spacers. This polymer can be categorized into different types based on its structure. Linear polyethyleneimines consist exclusively of secondary amines, whereas branched PEIs feature a mixture of primary, secondary, and tertiary amino groups. Additionally, there are totally branched, dendrimeric forms of PEI. Industrial production of PEI leverages its polycationic properties, which are valuable for various applications, including as a flocculant, in wastewater treatment, and in biomedical fields.
Market Development and Trends
The global industrial polyethyleneimine market is highly concentrated, with BASF leading the industry with a commanding share of over 65%. Other major players include NIPPON SHOKUBAI, Wuhan Qianglong New Chemical Materials Corporation, and Shanghai Gobekie. Together, these top players dominate the market, reflecting a high level of market concentration. Geographically, the Americas and Europe are the principal markets for PEI, collectively accounting for approximately 60% of the global market.
Key Applications and Future Outlook
In terms of product types, PEIs with an assay of less than or equal to 50% are the most prevalent, holding about 65% of the market. The primary applications of industrial polyethyleneimine are in the paper-making industry and the biomedicine industry, which together represent around 45% of the market. The paper-making industry utilizes PEI for its role in improving paper strength and as a flocculant in papermaking processes. In the biomedical sector, PEI's polycationic nature makes it useful for drug delivery and gene therapy applications.
Looking ahead, the PEI market is expected to continue its growth trajectory due to increasing demand across its key application areas. Innovations in polymer chemistry and growing applications in new industries could drive further market expansion. However, challenges such as raw material costs and regulatory issues may impact market dynamics. Overall, the industrial polyethyleneimine market is likely to remain robust, driven by its versatile applications and the ongoing advancements in polymer technology.
