In Mexico, significant price changes prompted a bullish market trend, particularly driven by the rising demand from the downstream paints and coatings sector. This increasing demand, along with low supply and greater use of already-existing inventory, led to a considerable price increase, reaching 1705 USD/MT.
The price trend for ethyl acrylate in Japan witnessed a decline in Q4 2023, primarily due to reduced utilization rates from the downstream paints and coating sectors stemming from low demand. This decrease in demand directly influenced prices within the country. Furthermore, a significant drop of -58% in prices was seen in Q4 2023 when compared to the same quarter the previous year, which may be attributed to a variety of market conditions as well as variations in supply and demand.
The price of ethyl acrylate in Germany fluctuated during the quarter, with signs of market improvement indicated by the PMI showing a gradual recovery. There were no plant shutdowns that were reported, in contrast to earlier times. However, there was a 35% decrease in costs when compared to the same quarter last year.
Brazil’s ethyl acrylate prices remained low from the downstream paint and coating sector since November 2023, resulting in a bearish market situation. Additionally, the reduced spread between the end product and its feedstock, acrylic acid, indicated decreased market sentiment for ethyl acrylate.

- Ethyl acrylate is a key component in paint and coating formulations, providing greater adhesion, higher durability, and improved water resistance. The increasing construction activities and rising preference for aesthetically pleasing and long-lasting finishes is driving the demand for ethyl acrylate-based products. Based on the data provided by G&P Global, approximately 52% of coatings produced worldwide are used for decorating and protecting new construction and existing structures, while 35% are utilized for industrial products.
- Furthermore, the trend of eco-friendly and low-volatile organic compounds (VOC) paints underscores the importance of ethyl acrylate in developing sustainable solutions that meet regulatory standards and user preferences.
- Stain resistance is enhanced in textiles treated with ethyl acrylate-based formulations, making them simpler to clean and maintain. This quality is preferred in clothing and home textiles like drapes and upholstery.
- It is also employed in the production of non-woven fabrics, a category of textile characterized by its sheet or web structures made from fibers bonded together by mechanical, thermal, or chemical means rather than weaving or knitting. It strengthens the mechanical strength and integrity of non-woven textiles by binding the fibers together. This is critical for applications including filters, geotextiles, and disposable medical clothing that need to be durable.
- Ethyl acrylate is sought after for its role in product formulation, enhancing both the performance and aesthetic qualities of cosmetic products. It is a crucial component of many different types of cosmetics due to its special qualities, which include the ability to build flexible, long-lasting films and work well with other substances. It is utilized in nail polish formulations to create a glossy, strong layer that sticks to the nail surface effectively and extends wear duration while reducing chipping. On the basis of the data provided by the International Trade Administration in 2021, the cosmetics market in Canada generated approximately USD 1.24 billion in revenue. Industry revenue is projected to grow by 1.45% annually, reaching USD 1.8 billion by 2024. It is also employed in hair styling products like gels and sprays, where it adds durability without weakening or breaking the hair.
- Furthermore, it is frequently used in sun protection and skin care products. It is added to formulations to enhance water resistance, improve texture, and increase ultraviolet (UV) filtering efficiency, which are critical for sunscreens and long-wearing skin care products. According to Skin Care Foundation, in 2024, an estimated 8,290 individuals will succumb to melanoma, with 5,430 being men and 2,860 women. The predominant cause of melanoma is sun exposure, with approximately 86 percent of cases linked to ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun, as per a UK study.
