Nylon-6 Industry to Hit US$ 26,040.9 Million by 2032, Driven by Environmental Concerns and Textile Industry Expansion

Nylon-6 Industry

The global nylon-6 industry size is expected to secure around US$ 26,040.9 Million in 2032 and is likely to hold a valuation of around US$ 14,679 Million in 2022. The global industry size is expected to exhibit a stable CAGR of 5.9% over the projection period from 2022 to 2032.

The growth in the market is attributed to the surging concern about the environment as well as the demand for nylon-6 in the emerging textile market will make nylon-6 a more attractive product in the market. The inclusion of PA 6 and PA 6, 6 into 3D printing systems is expected to lead to market growth for nylon-6 in the market. From 2016-2021, the market displayed a growth rate of 5.1%.

As a result of its high pressure, heat, and corrosion resistance, it is highly regarded in the manufacturing industry. In addition to its phenomenal properties, the nylon-6 polyamide is an engineered thermoplastic that comprises good flow properties, moldability, extrusion capability, chemical resistance, and morphological properties.

It has diverse applications that involve fused filament fabrication (FFF), and nylon 6 is considered a promising candidate in future markets. Nyon-6 is known for its characterization of physical and chemical properties that make it suitable for a wide range of applications. Approximately 60% of the global production of polyamides is composed of nylon 6.
