Ethyl Acrylate Pricing, Demand and Supply Overview
Ethyl acrylate is the monomer behind a wide range of acrylate ester polymers and emulsions, feeding paints and coatings, adhesives, textile and paper treatment chemicals and various plastics additives. It's made from acrylic acid and ethanol, and since acrylic acid itself tracks propylene costs closely, movements in the broader propylene chain tend to show up in finished ethyl acrylate pricing within weeks. China is the largest producing and consuming region, with the United States, Germany, Japan, South Korea, Mexico and Brazil all tracked as significant markets in their own right. Demand through 2026 has leaned heavily on paints and coatings, the largest single end use, with adhesives providing steady secondary support and automotive and construction demand running more cautiously in parts of the year.
Prices rose sharply across most regions in the second quarter of 2026, with the United States averaging close to USD 1.86 per KG, up nearly 18 percent quarter on quarter, Germany near USD 1.63 per KG, up almost 20 percent, and China around USD 1.24 per KG, up roughly 17 percent. Mexico posted the steepest gain among tracked markets, over 20 percent, while Brazil was the lone exception, easing slightly. The increases followed firmer acrylic acid and ethanol costs, themselves tied to a propylene market that had climbed off its late 2025 lows. German spot prices eased a bit toward the end of June as ethanol costs softened on comfortable inventories, though a mild rebound was already expected as feedstock costs firmed back up heading into the summer production season.
What is Ethyl Acrylate Price in September 2026?
Ethyl acrylate prices are holding well above where they started the year as September 2026 begins, with the United States near USD 1.86 per KG, Germany near USD 1.63 per KG and China closer to USD 1.24 per KG, all still elevated from the second quarter's sharp gains.
- Feedstock Costs: Acrylic acid and ethanol costs firmed through the second quarter as propylene recovered from its late 2025 lows, and that upstream strength is really the main reason ethyl acrylate prices climbed so broadly across regions over the same period.
- European Softening: German spot prices eased in late June as ethanol costs came down on comfortable inventories, though a modest rebound was already on the cards as feedstock costs firmed back up heading into the summer coatings production season.
- Demand Mix: Paints and coatings remained the largest source of demand through the period, with adhesives providing steady support, even as automotive and construction end markets stayed more cautious in several of the tracked regions.
Ethyl Acrylate Price Forecast for 2026
The balance of supply and demand for ethyl acrylate through the rest of 2026 leans cautiously firm. Acrylic acid feedstock costs recovered sharply in Q1 2026 from Middle East propylene supply disruptions. Coating and textile finishing demand is recovering with improving construction and apparel production activity.
The main upside risk is a sustained acrylic acid cost increase alongside a broad coating and textile sector recovery. The main downside risk is continued crude oil softness and competitive Chinese acrylate production that limits global price recovery.
| Region | 2026 Price Range (USD/KG) | Outlook |
| Global Average | 1.12 - 1.28 | Acrylic acid firming and coating demand support tone |
| United States | 1.16 - 1.32 | Steady coating and textile demand holds it firm |
| China | 0.84 - 1.00 | Large production capacity keeps it the most affordable |
| Germany | 1.38 - 1.54 | High feedstock and energy costs keep it the most expensive |
| India | 1.10 - 1.26 | Growing coating and textile demand holds a firm middle |

Prices respond mainly to acrylic acid and propylene feedstock costs, coating sector seasonal demand, and textile finishing activity. Middle East propylene supply events and construction investment cycles are key near-term signals.
Asia Pacific leads with China holding the largest production capacity, followed by North America and Europe. Any acrylic acid or propylene cost shift ripples across ethyl acrylate markets within one to two quarters.
Buyers can use quarterly trends and forecasts to time coating and textile formulation contracts, build cover when acrylic acid signals tightening, and monitor propylene cost trends as the primary upstream signal.
