DMAPA Dimethylaminopropylamine Market Size

ID: MRFR//8406-CR | 100 Pages | Author: Anshula Mandaokar| July 2022

The 2022 size of Dimethylaminopropylamine (DMAPA) Market was $0.4Bn. The DMAPA (dimethylaminopropylamine) market is anticipated to rise from USD 0.417 Billion in 2023 to USD 0.5852 Billion due to increasing demand for more efficient pesticides with higher stability and selectivity by 2032, at a CAGR OF 4.32%.

The Dimethylaminopropylamine (DMAPA) Market is governed by factors that come together in order to shape its growth and dynamics. Its diverse purposes assure its use as a chemical intermediate in the manufacture of many things such as cosmetics household products like toothpaste, surface-active agents and plant protection agents (PPA). Other applications of DMAPA are based on its unique properties such as pH regulation, emulsification, and corrosion inhibition capacity thus making it an essential element for various industrial processes. For instance, the personal care sector depends on it for preparing hair shampoos, fabric conditioners and creams leading to the expansion of this industry.

Another significant contributor towards DMAPA demand is agrochemical industry. In particular, herbicides formulations usually incorporate DMAPA as a co-solvent used to dissolve active ingredients into an aqueous spray solution for application onto agricultural crops since it improves solubility characteristics of organic substances thereby increasing their effectiveness against weeds [1-3]. DMAPA is increasingly being used across the world because pests are becoming resistant to traditional means of pest control and hence farmers have turned to using stronger chemicals including those containing DMAPA.

Likewise, surfactant industry contributes significantly towards shaping the market for DMAPA itself where it participates in production of speciality surfactants. It has diverse applications including but not limited textile manufacturing sector oil drilling industrial cleaning etcetera [4]. DMAPA is also used in the production of high performance cleaners for household and industrial use by improving the wetting, dispersing and emulsifying properties of surfactants.

Furthermore, DMAPA is widely employed by the personal care and cosmetics industry in making quaternary ammonium compounds such as emulsifiers and conditioners. The increasing demand for innovative beauty products that are effective has led to growth in this industry thereby raising orders for DMAPA that is a primary component used in making cosmetics.

However, availability of raw materials, regulatory aspects, and calls for sustainability may affect the Dimethylaminopropylamine (DMAPA) market. Raw materials essential to the manufacture of DMAPA include allyl alcohol or dimethylamine whose prices can fluctuate according to changes on their supply chains.

DMAPA (Dimethylaminopropylamine) Market Trends




  • Expanding the Home & Industrial Cleaning Sector to Accelerate Market Growth




In the production of detergents and soaps used in the domestic and commercial cleaning industries, DMAPA (dimethylaminopropylamine) is frequently utilized. According to the Chemical and Petrochemical Statistics at a Glance 2020 report published by the Indian Government's Ministry of Chemicals and Fertilizers and Department of Chemicals and Petrochemicals, the manufacturing of soap and detergents, cleaning and polishing preparations, perfumes, and toilet preparations increased from 75,071 crores (US$11.2 billion) in 2016-2017 to 81,478 crores (US$12.5 billion) in 2017-2018. The market for home care products in Vietnam was valued at US$1.2 billion (VND 27,255 billion) in 2018, and by 2023, it is predicted to reach US$1.6 billion. Therefore, it is clear from the statistics above that the residential and industrial cleaning industries are thriving in several areas, which is increasing the demand for soaps and detergents based on DMAPA (dimethylaminopropylamine), supporting the dimethylaminopropylamine market CAGR.


Additionally, DMAPA (dimethylaminopropylamine) is a diamine that is frequently used in the production of various surfactants, such as Cocamidopropyl betaine, a component of many personal care products, including soaps, shampoos, cosmetics, and other goods for personal care. DMAPA makes water, alcohols, esters, and ketones perfectly miscible. Diethyl ether, benzene, and chlorinated hydrocarbons are only partially miscible with it. Since DMAPA is gentle and kind to the skin, its usage in creating gentle soap and shampoos has expanded. This is because it doesn't irritate the skin or the eyes. By 2025, the beauty market is projected to grow by 5% to 7% yearly and reach USD 800 billion. Therefore, the demand for DMAPA (dimethylaminopropylamine) is anticipated to rise over the projected period as a result of the expanding application of DMAPA in beauty and personal care products, particularly in the Asia-Pacific region.


Furthermore, ion exchange resins are widely produced using DMAPA, also known as dimethylaminopropylamine. Water softening is the most popular application of ion exchange resin, which is extensively employed as a practical and effective form of water treatment. These resins are used to lessen pollutants such as arsenic, nitrates, uranium, perchlorate, and others to generate deionized and demineralized water. Due to the increased demand for potable water, new wastewater treatment facilities have been built. For instance, the Flying Dust Wastewater Treatment Plant project was launched by the Canadian government in March 2022 to construct a new water treatment facility in the Flying Dust First Nation. The Ministry of Housing for Utilities in Egypt also announced the construction of two wastewater treatment plants in 2021 to increase public access to water. Rean Watertech and P C Snehal Construction Co. (JV) plan to construct a new water treatment facility at Baadkhera Vijaypur, Sheopur, Madhya Pradesh. The project comprises constructing a 2.65 MLD water treatment facility. The project will cost about 91.4 million rupees. The state's environmental control organizations have authorized the corporation to begin the project as of March 2021. The demand for ion exchange resin based on DMAPA (dimethylaminopropylamine) is increasing as water treatment projects expand ly. As a result, the DMAPA (dimethylaminopropylamine) market revenue will be driven by the rising number of successful water treatment projects during the course of the projected period.
