Triethylenetetramine is primarily added to lubricants to stop the buildup of sludge and deliquesce deposits in internal combustion engines. The automotive industry is growing in Asia-Pacific countries, for illustration, according to India Brand Equity Foundation (IBEF), the Indian automotive industry is expected to reach Rs. 16.16-18.18 trillion (US$ 251.4-282.8 billion) by 2026. According to the International Trade Administration (ITA), China continues to be the world’s largest vehicle market by both annual sales and manufacturing output, with domestic production expected to reach 35 million vehicles by 2025. According to the International Organization of Motor Vehicle Manufacturers (OICA), the total automotive vehicle production in China rose by 3%, a 30% increase in India, 8% growth in Taiwan and 63% growth in Indonesia for the year 2021 compared to the previous year. With the increasing automobile production, the demand for ethyleneamines is also increasing in the region, thereby acting as a driver for the ethyleneamines market during the forecast period.

Growing Production of Crop Within the Same Area of Arable Land:

Due to the use of ethyleneamines in the production of several crop protection products, the steady growth of the agrochemicals industry is anticipated to strongly support the growth of the Asia-Pacific Ethyleneamines industry. Because it can treat a wide range of fungal diseases, ethylenediamine (EDA), one of the main types of ethyleneamines, is a crucial raw material in the production of mancozeb, an efficient fungicide used on many different types of crops. The most widely used insecticide in the world, imidacloprid, is also produced using it. Mancozeb and imidacloprid are two pesticides that are frequently used in crop production because they are crucial in supplying crops with the nutrients they need to grow and produce more crops. Global crop production is increasing as world population growth continues. The total production of primary crops increased by 53 percent between 2000 and 2019, reaching a record high of 9.4 billion tonnes in 2019, according to the Food and Agriculture Organization's (FAO) Statistical Yearbook of 2021. In comparison to 2000, this is an increase of 3.2 billion tonnes. Agricultural production has increased in recent years, but more so because of higher yields per unit area than from the addition of new farmland. By 2030, it is advised that to meet the demand for grain and feed the growing population on the available arable land, annual crop production and yield should increase within the same area of arable land. To increase crop yield on the same amount of arable land and give crops the right nutrients, the demand for pesticides like mancozeb and imidacloprid will increase significantly. This demand will undoubtedly fuel the growth of the ethyleneamines market during the forecast period.
