1. GLOBAL NYLON RESIN MARKET OVERVIEW

1.1. SCOPE
Nylon resin is a type of thermoplastic synthesized from ethylenediamine. This has widespread
applications in various fields. Nylon is used in the production of film and fiber but is also used as
a moulding compound. Generally, these resins are grouped together as a class of polamides
which are known for stability and adaptability. The majority of nylons tends to be semicrystalline and is generally very tough materials with good thermal and chemical resistance.
Caprolactum is an important polymer which has varied applications across different industries.
Caprolactum is the key raw material for nylon 6. The study includes the demand of this
particular market on a global and regional scale for a six year period of 2014-2020, both in terms
of volume (kilo tons) and revenue ($ million).
This study gives detailed information about the types and applications of the particular market. It
also includes product value chain right from the beginning which includes raw materials till enduse. The market is evaluated based on the key attributes such as the power in the hands of
producers and consumers, analysis on the degree of competition, and threats from substitutes

2. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Nylon is basically a thermoplastic silky material. It was first used commercially in a nylon-bristled
toothbrush followed by famously known women stockings after being introduced as a fabric.
Nylon is processed by methods such as extrusion, injection moulding and casting.
2007 was considered to be a good year for the global nylon resins industry. This was because of
the decline in the global economic recession in 2008 which saw the demand of the industry
plummeting by about 5-10% bringing down profits to lower levels. However, the demand for
the industry picked up at a good rate with the high demand for the products such as Nylon 6,
nylon 66 and caprolactum. China, APAC and the US accounted for the highest shares of
producing the types of nylon resins like Nylon 6, Nylon 66 and caprolactum respectively.
The demand for caprolactum in 2012 was worth $9 billion and is expected to reach $14 billion
by 2020, at a CAGR of 7% from 2014-2020. In terms of volume, the demand for caprolactum
was around 3,580.0 kilo tons in 2012.

Nylon 6 is one type of resin that can be reinforced with minerals or glass fibers to improve
strength and resist warping from extreme temperatures. Nylon 612 and 12 may also infuse with
glass or minerals to varying degrees depending on its application. In addition, some grades of
nylon 12 that resist melt-processing methods are further reinforced with powdered or aqueous
solutions of polytetrafluoroethylene.

The specific use of each type of nylon resin varies depending on the crystallization of polymer
molecules, which determines its properties and the kind of end product it will go into. In the
U.S., the majority of resin produced is nylon 66, which is most often used to produce extruded
and molded parts. Some Western European countries, like Japan, lead in the worlds production
of nylon 6, which is mainly used to make fibers and filaments.

KEY MARKET INSIGHTS

It is estimated that the average growth rate of nylon resins will be only 3% instead of the
usual 5-6% due to global economic recession seen in the year 2008
Nylon 6 and nylon 66 account to be the popular types among the other products,
accounting for more than 90% of the global nylon resin market
China is the worlds largest producer of nylon 6, representing 32% of the total world
production capacity and it is expected to grow at a 19.5% rate from 2014
The U.S. is the worlds largest producer of nylon 66, accounting for 40% of the total
world production capacity and it is expected to increase by 10% from 2014
Automotive and truck applications are the major applications for both nylon 6 and nylon
66, accounting for about 35% of global nylon resins consumption
Consumption of nylon 6 will grow at about 7.5% while consumption of nylon 66 will
grow at a rate of 6% per year
Nylon 6 fibers dominated the consumption of caprolactum and accounted for over 66%
of total demands in 2012
Europe is the other major region where caprolactum consumption was very strong and is
expected to grow in demand with a CAGR of about 7 % in terms of volume from 20142020
