Market Synopsis
Polyamide is a polymer in which the repeating units (monomer) in the molecular chain are linked together by amide groups. Polyamides are widely used in the manufacturing of high-quality structural components owing to their excellent resistance to impact and abrasion as well as chemicals and solvents. Transparent polyamides are amorphous polyamides, specially designed for transparent applications as an alternative for polycarbonate (which does not offer high chemical resistance) and for other high-cost transparent polymers. The major types of polyamides used are polyamide 6, polyamide 66, polyamide 12, and bio-based transparent polyamide. These polyamides are used to manufacture various products for the automotive, electrical & electronics, healthcare, consumer care, packaging, and sports & leisure industries, by using the injection molding, blow molding, and extrusion processes.
The global transparent polyamides market is projected to be valued at over USD 2.5 billion and register a CAGR of over 7% during the forecast period, 2019–2024.
The demand for high-performance polymers has increased in recent years in the automotive, healthcare, and consumer goods industries. Transparent polyamide is one of the major high-performance polymers consumed in these industries. The prominent demand-side market drivers for the global transparent polyamides are increasing demand for the product in the consumer goods industry owing to the high transparency, high flexural fatigue strength, dimensional stability and dynamic strength, and lightweight due to low density. In addition, the automotive industry is the major consumer of transparent polyamides, wherein they are used to manufacture petrol filters, lubricant containers, remote controls, handles and holders, and other automobile components. The expanding automotive industry in Asia-Pacific and the Middle East & Africa and increasing use of lightweight polymers to reduce the overall weight of the vehicles are factors expected to propel the growth of the global transparent polyamides market during the forecast period. The electrical and electronics industry is the other key consumer of these polyamides, wherein they are used in the manufacturing of electrical connectors, IR sensor housings, mobile phone housings/components, and telecommunication connectors, among others. The healthy growth of the industry across the globe is expected to boost the demand for transparent polyamides in the years to follow. In the medical sector, there has a been an increasing demand for consumer-friendly medical devices as well as need to reduce the weight and improved flexibility of devices such as masks worn by patients to improve compliance. Transparency of components used in these devices helps improve function and aesthetics, which is further expected to fuel product demand in the coming years.
However, high competition from the hybrid polymers and composites is expected to be a key factor hampering the global market growth during the assessment period.
