Polyphthalamide Market Is Gaining Significant Traction As Celanese Corporation Completed Acquisition Of Manufacturer Of Engineering Thermoplastics (ETP) Compounder Next Polymers Ltd
Polyphthalamide is known by several names, among them Triploid Polyphosphate, Thermoplastic Polyurethane, and Polyhydroxyacetone. Polyphosphate is an organic compound derived from phosphate groups of amino acids, which includes arginine, lysine, methionine, glycine, threonine, cysteine, lysine, arginine, taurine, and methionine. The thermoplastic version of Polyphosphate is thermoplastics. Polyphosphate is produced through the natural reaction between polyamines and sugars. These sugars can be in many different compositions, such as monomer, nitrogen, non-monomer, phosphate, non-esterified fatty acid, or phospholipid. The thermoplastic polyphosphates are most commonly processed as plasticizers and solvent removers.
Increasing demand from the electrical
and electronics industry is expected to drive growth of the global polyphthalamidemarket. Polyphthalamide is widely used in the electrical and electronics sector
since it replaces aluminum in complex components. PPA-based resins are molded
into parts to replace in applications that require temperature resistance such
as the housing for high-temperature electrical connectors and many more. PPA
resins can resist infrared soldering environments, which is not common in other
resins. According to the India Brand Equity Foundation (IBEF), the Indian
electronics market reached US$ 400 billion increasing from US$ 69.6 billion in
2012, registering a CAGR of 24.4%. Hence, such factors are expected to drive
growth of the global polyphthalamide market. Furthermore, rising demand for
lightweight automobile components and stringent emission regulations is
expected to propel the global polyphthalamide market growth in the near future.
According to the European Union (EU) Regulation (EC), 443/2009 sets mandatory
emission reduction targets for new cars, Regulation (EU) 2019/631 introduces CO2
emission performance standards for new passenger cars and vans for 2025 and
2030.
However, high cost compared to other
thermoplastic nylons and low commercialization in emerging economies is
expected to restrain growth of the global polyphthalamide market. The
development of bio-based polyphthalamide can present lucrative growth
opportunities in the near future. Among regions, Asia Pacific is expected to
witness significant growth in the global polyphthalamide market. This is owing
to the presence of major automobile manufacturers and the availability of cheap
labor in the region. Furthermore, North America is expected to register a
robust growth rate, owing to growing consumer preference for high-quality
fuel-efficient automobiles.
Key companies involved in the global
polyphthalamide market are DuPont, Pro Polymers Inc., PlastiComp Inc., Solvay,
Evonik Industries AG, Arkema, Ecomass, Celanese Corporation, and DSM.
For instance, in January 2019,
Celanese Corporation, a specialty chemicals company, acquired Next Polymers
Ltd., an Indian engineering thermoplastics (ETP) compounder.
