The global Die Casting Release Agents Market size is valued at USD 956.9 million in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 1535.5 million by 2032, registering a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.09% over the forecast period.
The die casting release agents market is witnessing steady growth driven by rising demand for high-quality, defect-free castings in automotive, aerospace, electronics, and industrial machinery sectors. Release agents are essential in die casting processes to ensure easy part release, extend die life, improve surface finish, and reduce casting defects such as porosity and soldering. Water-based release agents are increasingly preferred over solvent-based variants due to lower environmental impact, compliance with VOC regulations, and improved worker safety. Manufacturers are focusing on developing release agents with enhanced thermal stability, reduced build-up on dies, and compatibility with complex alloy compositions used in lightweight automotive components. Market growth is supported by expanding automotive production, rising use of aluminium and magnesium die cast parts for vehicle lightweighting, and increasing precision component manufacturing in electronics and industrial machinery. However, challenges include formulation complexities to ensure uniform coating at high temperatures, residue build-up affecting die performance, and competition from advanced coating technologies like ceramic die coatings. Recent developments include Chem-Trend launching water-based release agents for aluminium and magnesium die casting, Henkel introducing sustainable release agents with low residue formulations, and FUCHS enhancing its LUBRODAL range with improved lubrication and demoulding performance. Government regulations promoting environmentally friendly manufacturing practices and lightweight vehicle initiatives are further supporting market growth globally.
A major trend is the shift towards water-based die casting release agents due to stringent VOC emission regulations, better environmental compliance, and improved workplace safety compared to traditional solvent-based products.
