Global Nylon 6 Market 2023 by Manufacturers, Regions, Type and Application, Forecast to 2029

According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global Nylon 6 market size was valued at USD 17460 million in 2022 and is forecast to a readjusted size of USD 25370 million by 2029 with a CAGR of 5.5% during review period.

Nylon 6, is a polymer developed by Paul Schlack at IG Farben to reproduce the properties of nylon 6.6 without violating the patent on its production. It was given the trademark Perlon® in 1952. Nylon 6 is the most common commercial grade of nylon. Nylon 6 is tough, possessing high tensile strength. Smaller diameters and thinner thickness sheets are produced by an extrusion process, while larger diameter and thicker sheets are produced by a casting process. A lower melting point of 215oC gives Nylon 6 a slightly lower maximum working temperature of 170oC short term. Nylon 6 is used in a broad range of products requiring materials of high strength. It is widely used for gears, fittings, and bearings, in automotive industry for under-the-hood parts, and as a material for power tools housings. It can also be used in gun frames, such as those used by Glock, which are made with a composite of Nylon 6 and other polymers.

Global 5 largest manufacturers of Nylon 6 are BASF SE, Royal DSM N.V, LIBOLON, Lanxess and AdvanSix, which make up about 30%. Among them, BASF SE is the leader with about 13% market share.

Asia-Pacific is the largest market, with a share about 75%, followed by Europe and North America, with the share about 15% and 10%. In terms of product type, Reinforced Nylon 6 occupies the largest share of the total market, more than 75%. In terms of product application, Automotive Industry occupy the largest share of the total market, about 30%.
