Report Code : cm1817 | Publish Date : Upcoming | Industry : Chemicals_Materials | Geography : Global


Polyamide 6/10 is made by polycondensing hexamethylene diamine and sebacic acid, which is extracted from the seeds of the castor oil plant. PA 6/10 can be said to come partly from a renewable resource since over half its weight is derived from sebacic acid. Polyamide 6/10 are bio-based polyamides and It is also called as Nylon-6/10. It is a semi crystalline polyamide commonly used in monofilament form in applications such as bristles and brushes, due to its low moisture absorption compared to other nylons, it retains its properties better when wet. Polyamide 6/10 is made from decanedioic acid and 1, 6 diaminohexane. Nylon 6/10 have been approved by the FDA as indirect food additives used for food contact surfaces. The polyamide 6/10 is used primarily as bulking and opacifying agents in cosmetic formulations.

Polyamide 6/10 Market Outlook

The global polyamide 6/10 market is primarily driven increasing demand from automotive sector. The demand for environment friendly polyamides which are also called as bio-based polyamides is increasing owing to the increasing preference for eco-friendly and sustainable solutions. Moreover, rapidly evolving automobile, electrical & electronics, and textile sectors are projected to boost the demand for the product in the next few years. However, high cost of polyamide 6/10 and easy availability of substitute are the major factor anticipated to hinder the growth of the market during the forecast period.
