Nylon is a strong and stiff engineering plastic with excellent bearing and wear properties. Nylon is often used to replace metal bushings and bearings by frequently reducing the need for external lubrications. Besides, it induces reduction in part weight, reduced wear on mating parts and less operating noise. Nylon is segmented on the basis of number as 6, and 66 related to its molecular structure.
The global nylon engineering plastic market is anticipated to witness a substantial growth with 5.8% of CAGR during the forecast period 2021-2027. To propel the nylon market growth during the estimated period, increasing demand for nylon in automobile applications is responsible to dominate steady growth among top players such as Toyota, Ford, Volkswagen etc.
On the basis of product type segment, the nylon market is segmented as nylon 6 and nylon 66. Where nylon 6 product segment registers a steady growth and highest revenue share in year 2020 and is projected to contribute to the further growth of the global nylon engineering plastic market.
Along with this, the increasing demand for the product from various sectors such as engineering plastics, electrical & electronics, textile and automotive industries contribute to the significant factor to drive the growth of the market globally over the forecast period. In electrical and electronics applications segment, the production of tubes for various usages induced for cables and wiring, connectors, circuit breakers and low voltage switch gears composed nylon as the major component.
