The global market for UV Monomers and Oligomers was estimated to be worth US$ 3234 million in 2024 and is forecast to a readjusted size of US$ 5108 million by 2031 with a CAGR of 7.1% during the forecast period 2025-2031.
UV monomers and oligomers are key components in ultraviolet (UV)-curable formulations, playing a crucial role in coatings, adhesives, inks, and other high-performance materials. UV monomers are small, reactive molecules that undergo polymerization when exposed to UV light, enabling rapid curing and hardening without the need for heat or solvents. UV oligomers, on the other hand, consist of short-chain polymers with multiple reactive groups, providing tailored mechanical properties such as flexibility, hardness, and adhesion. These materials are widely used in automotive coatings, electronics, packaging, and 3D printing, offering benefits like fast processing, low volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions, and high chemical resistance. Their ability to enhance durability and environmental sustainability makes them an essential choice for industries seeking advanced, eco-friendly curing technologies.
In 2024, global UV Monomers and Oligomers production reached approximately 1.12 million tons, with an average global market price of around US$ 2,890 per ton.
UV Monomers and UV Oligomers serve as key building blocks in radiation-curable formulations. UV monomers, contributing around US$ 1.78 billion in the 2024 market, play a critical role in adjusting viscosity, reactivity, and film flexibility. UV oligomers, with a 2024 market size of US$ 1.46 billion, provided the fundamental performance properties of cured films, including chemical resistance, hardness, and elasticity. Together, these components support the formulation of high-performance coatings, inks, adhesives, and specialty materials. As formulation requirements grow more complex, the synergistic use of customized monomer-oligomer systems is becoming essential for end-use performance differentiation.
The global competitive landscape remains moderately consolidated, with the top three players accounting for a combined 31.22% market share in 2024. Key global players include Arkema, BASF, Allnex Group, Eternal Materials, Miwon Specialty Chemical, IGM Resins, Nippon Shokubai, and Mitsubishi Chemical, among others. These companies are actively investing in capacity expansion, specialty product lines, and regional production bases, particularly in Asia-Pacific and North America, to meet rising demand and reduce supply chain complexity. Several players are also focusing on bio-based monomers and oligomers, recyclable UV systems, and low-migration formulations to align with green chemistry principles and regulatory compliance in sensitive sectors like food packaging and healthcare.
Looking forward, the UV Monomers and Oligomers market is expected to evolve in three strategic directions: specialty functionalization, sustainability, and application diversification. As end-users demand materials with higher chemical resistance, lower shrinkage, and multifunctional performance, oligomers with tailored architectures and monomers with dual-functionality are becoming more critical. Meanwhile, pressure from global regulations and customer sustainability goals will accelerate the adoption of low-VOC, bio-based, and recyclable UV materials. Lastly, sectors such as additive manufacturing, flexible electronics, and biomedical coatings will expand the market's reach into high-value, innovation-driven applications.
