Global Caprolactam Market Insights, Opportunity Analysis, and Industry Forecast till 2025
An example of an organic compound
is caprolactum, which is used to make nylon 6 fibre and resins. The automotive
and textile industries have increased their use of nylon 6 fibres and nylon 6
resin because of their high tensile strength, chemical and oil resistance,
superior elasticity, and low moisture absorption. Due to its high temperature
and chemical resistance, nylon 6 is being used as a replacement for caprolactum
by many automakers. Due to their low weight compared to metal tubes and high
electrical insulation, they are also used in electrical and electronic
equipment such as circuit breakers, contractors, connectors, and switchgears.
However, among other factors that
are limiting the growth of the caprolactam
market in the aforementioned forecast period are rising volatile raw
material prices, stringent Chinese regulations, and continuous moisture
absorption that results in property degradation.
Rising demand for plastics in the
construction, automotive, and electrical & electronics sectors, as well as
the expanding textile industry in Asia Pacific and the upcoming automobile
sector, rising growth of emerging economies, increasing continuous research and
development activities leading to technological breakthroughs for
cost-effective manufacturing, and increasing market growth are all contributing
factors. Additionally, during the forecast period of 2021–2028, the market for
caprolactam will see new opportunities due to the growing development of
bio-based caprolactam in areas with strict regulations, as well as the growing
technological advancements and modernization of production techniques.
