Exothermic blowing agents release heat during decomposition, which accelerates the gas-generating process. Common compounds include hydrazine derivatives, dinitrosopentamethylenetetramine (DNPT), and azodicarbonamide-based mixtures. These agents are primarily used in applications requiring fast foaming, such as in PVC flooring, synthetic leather, and injection-molded automotive parts. Pricing trends for exothermic blowing agents are more volatile than for endothermic types. Costs are closely tied to raw material prices and environmental compliance regulations. For instance, hydrazine-based ag

PRICE AND PRODUCTION TRENDS AND BUSINESS Forecast Report Exothermic Blowing Agents Production and Price Trend 01
Exothermic Blowing Agents Production and Price Overview Historical Growth Rates and Past Performance Global Exothermic Blowing Agents production recorded 145,000 MT in 2024, up from 138,000 MT in 2023, continuing a stable growth trend. From 2020 to 2024, Exothermic Blowing Agents production grew at a CAGR of approximately 3.5%, driven by consistent demand from sectors such as construction, packaging, and automotive. In 2022, output reached 132,000 MT, while 2021 saw 125,000 MT of Exothermic Blowing Agents production. Most of the capacity additions came from Asia-Pacific, especially China and South Korea. The average Exothermic Blowing Agents price in 2025 is estimated at $2,450/MT, showing a moderate increase from $2,320/MT in 2024 and $2,150/MT in 2023. Feedstock fluctuations have played a major role in shaping the Exothermic Blowing Agents price. Additionally, high demand in Q1 2025 has contributed to a stronger Exothermic Blowing Agents price trend. 02 Request a sample at - https://datavagyanik.com/reports/global-exothermic-blowing-agents-market-size-production-sales-average-product-price- market-share-import-vs-export-united-states-europe-apac-latin-america-middle-east-africa/
Key Factors Impacting Exothermic Blowing Agents Prices in 2025 Exothermic Blowing Agents price in 2025 is shaped by a mix of higher raw material prices and moderate supply azodicarbonamide, the most widely used raw material, surged 9% in Q1 2025 due to tight availability and increased input costs. This had a direct impact on the Exothermic Blowing Agents price across global markets. Furthermore, currency fluctuations, particularly the depreciation of the yuan and euro, increased import costs for buyers in North America and Europe. Another key driver behind the Exothermic Blowing Agents price rise is demand growth from packaging and construction applications, which intensified procurement pressure on suppliers. constraints. The price of In addition, transportation and logistics expenses have climbed slightly, leading to incremental cost inflation passed on through the Exothermic Blowing Agents price. From January to May 2025, the Exothermic Blowing Agents price has maintained an upward bias. Regional variations in price levels have also widened as countries introduce stricter environmental regulations, making Exothermic Blowing Agents price adjustments more common across jurisdictions. 03
MARKET SEGMENTATION Segmentation by Geography Exothermic Blowing Agents are categorized into various segments based on type, application, and geography. Key product types include azodicarbonamide, p-toluenesulfonyl semicarbazide, oxybisbenzenesulfonyl hydrazide, and others. Azodicarbonamide remains the most used type due to its favorable thermal decomposition range and compatibility with several polymer matrices. It accounted for the largest market share in 2024, supported by widespread usage in plastics and synthetic rubber. From the application perspective, the major sectors are plastics, rubber, and thermoplastics. Plastics lead the demand, particularly in packaging, automotive interiors, and building materials. Rubber foaming is another strong application area, especially in footwear and insulation products, which continue to expand in emerging economies. Regionally, Asia-Pacific dominated the Exothermic Blowing Agents market in 2024, accounting for over 60% of total production and consumption. China and India are the primary growth hubs, supported by large-scale manufacturing and favorable domestic policies. Europe and North America followed, driven by technical advancements and demand in automotive and construction. However, environmental restrictions in the European Union are encouraging a shift toward greener blowing agents. The Middle East, Latin America, and Africa represent smaller but expanding markets with increasing investment in infrastructure and industrial applications. 04
