Nylon Market Overview:
Nylon is a versatile synthetic polymer. It consists of a very long polymer chain with small endlessly repeating segments of atoms that are moulded to produce fibres and fabrics. Nylon is also referred as ‘polyamides’ and is used in everyday products such as containers, ropes, and textile among others. They exhibit superior strength, durability, solubility in organic solvents and acids, chemical and fungi resistance. They are produced from organic chemicals found in petroleum and coal.
The global nylon market has been bifurcated on the basis of type and application. Based on type, the global nylon market has been segmented into Nylon 6,6; Nylon 6,12; Nylon 4,6; Nylon 6; Nylon 12. Under these segments, Nylon 6 accounted for the largest market share in 2017 and is expected to continue this trend during the forecast period owing to the surging demand for the product in textile and automotive industry. Nylon 6,6 is projected to register a high CAGR in the coming years owing to its increasing demand for heat-resistant and environment-friendly in automotive, consumer goods, packaging, electronics, and industrial yarns.
On the basis of application, the global nylon market has been categorized into textile, tire, military supply, automotive, and household appliance. The textile segment accounted for the largest market share and is expected to maintain its dominance during the review period owing to growing demand for the product in manufacturing yarn, hosiery, cordage, and knitted clothing among others. The automotive industry is projected to register a highest CAGR during the forecast period owing to increased application in manufacturing lightweight automobiles, engine covers, tires, airbag containers, and head lamp among others.
Regions
The global Nylon market has been analyzed with respect to the five key regions, —Asia-Pacific, North America, Latin America, Europe, and the Middle East & Africa. The Asia-Pacific market accounted for the largest market share in 2017 and is projected to grow at a robust CAGR during the forecast period owing to growing automotive, textile, and construction industries. Nylon finds widespread applications in automotive interior and exterior components, fabrics, yarns, among others which propels the regional market growth. China is the leading country in the region followed by India, Japan, Taiwan, and South Korea. The North America and Europe market accounted for a substantial market share in 2017 and is projected to grow at a moderate CAGR in the following years owing to saturated economic development. There is growing demand for the product largely in automotive industry. US is the leading country in North America region. Germany dominated the nylon market in Europe owing to the presence of leading manufacturing companies in the region such as BASF SE and Evonik Industries AG. France, Switzerland, and Belgium are the other regions contributing to the regional market growth. The Latin American market accounted for a substantial market share in 2017 and is projected to grow at a moderate CAGR in the coming years owing to growing economic developments in the region, and surging demand for the product in consumer goods. The Middle East & Africa market held a small market share in 2017 and is expected to register sluggish growth during the review period owing to limited demand for the product in the region.
