“According to a new report published by Introspective Market Research, Hexamine Market by Application, End-Use Industry, and Region, The Global Hexamine Market Size Was Valued at USD 462.45 Million in 2024 and is Projected to Reach USD 714.18 Million by 2035, Growing at a CAGR of 4.03% From 2025–2035.”

Hexamine, also known as hexamethylenetetramine, is a versatile chemical compound widely used across industrial and pharmaceutical applications. It is primarily utilized as a curing agent in phenolic resins, a raw material in explosives, and an intermediate in chemical synthesis. Its high thermal stability, solubility, and cost-effectiveness make it a preferred choice over several traditional chemical alternatives.

The market is witnessing steady growth driven by rising demand from construction, automotive, pharmaceutical, and defense industries. In construction, hexamine plays a critical role in manufacturing phenolic resins used in insulation panels, laminates, and adhesives. In pharmaceuticals, it is used in urinary antiseptics, while in defense applications it serves as a precursor for explosive compounds.

Additionally, the expanding chemical manufacturing base in emerging economies and continuous advancements in resin and polymer technologies are strengthening the global hexamine market outlook. Increasing investments in infrastructure and industrial development are further supporting long-term market expansion.
