Strict government laws and regulations, on the other hand, prevent market expansion. However, a rise in investment and new research and development in bio–based and specialty polyamides are expected to create growth opportunities during the forecast period.

COVID–19 Impact on the Global Polyamide Market

The polyamide industry was unaffected by COVID–19 disruption. However, coronavirus–related lockdowns posed several problems for industry participants, including disrupted supply chains, logistical difficulties in shipping end goods, and recruiting staff from quarantines. The outbreak of coronavirus disease (COVID–19) and subsequent government–imposed lockdowns have temporarily interrupted the activities of big end–use polyamide industries. As a result, the industry is in a downward spiral. Furthermore, negative effects on human health are anticipated to hamper the market expansion during the predicted period. Commercial, transportation, and industrial activity have all ceased. As the bulk of chemical commodities, the demand for polyamide has been volatile since the emergence of COVID–19. However, the demand from the consumer goods and packaging industry helped balance the situation during the pandemic.

Global Polyamide Market Dynamics

Drivers: Increase in demand for electric vehicles

The strength per unit weight of an electric vehicle is critical. These vehicles are built on lowering weight and optimizing the strength of various vehicle body sections. Metals in these cars are being replaced with new materials and thermoplastics to lower total vehicle weight. The weight loss is done for various reasons, including lower fuel use and thus lower CO2 emissions. Injection molding polyamide 6 is an excellent solution for reducing vehicle weight. Metal components are quickly replaceable in electric vehicles so that they may be easily shaped and mass–produced. Polyamide 6 has a lower unit cost than metals, making it a more cost–effective alternative. As a result, the rise in demand for light vehicles is seen as a benefit for the polyamide 6 industry.

Restraints: Changes in crude prices to hamper the market growth

However, fluctuating crude oil prices have altered petrochemical production, hexamethylene diamine, adipic acid, and caprolactam production. As a result, unpredictable raw material prices are projected to limit global polyamide industry growth during the forecast period. Stringent government controls and competition from elastomer–based alternatives are expected to hinder the market demand. Furthermore, an early indication of a global economic slowdown is being observed these days, which is expected to impact the polyamide industry significantly. This is projected to delay continued investment and development for several years.

Opportunities: Favorable government policies encouraging electric vehicles

In the future, R&D in bio–based and specialty polyamide for various applications will likely present enormous prospects for players. Makers, trade associations, and end–product manufacturers are all investing in R&D. Polyamide use in food contact and household items and specialty polyamides in automotive to replace metals. This is anticipated to present a potential for market participants. Due to its environmentally favorable qualities, technology changes such as bio–based polyamide are projected to drive market growth in the future. In addition, the bio–based polyamide market is likely to be fueled by government regulations and increased health consciousness in emerging countries. The polyamide market expansion is projected to be hampered by the complex manufacturing process and lack of precursors. Another concern expected to hamper the market expansion is the deterioration of characteristics due to moisture absorption.
