Market Segmentation
The global transparent polyamides market has been segregated on the basis of type, end-use industry, and region.
By type, the global transparent polyamides market has been segmented into polyamide 6, polyamide 66, polyamide 12, bio-based polyamide, and others. The polyamide 12 segment accounted for a majority of the market share in 2018 and is estimated to be the leading segment in the years to follow. Chemical resistance, high transparency, good flexural bending strength, high heat distortion temperature, and low density offered by polyamide 12 makes it a better polyamide type among others. Bio-based transparent polyamides are gaining popularity on account of the growing need for development and use of sustainable alternatives for high-performance plastics.
Based on end-use industry, the global transparent polyamides market has been categorized into automotive, electrical & electronics, healthcare, consumer goods, packaging, sports & leisure, and others. The automotive industry accounted for the largest share of the global market in 2018, owing to various benefits offered by the transparent polyamides including high flexural fatigue strength, lower water absorption compared to standard polyamide, transparency even with thick walled components, easy processing, and stiffness. The consumer goods segment is expected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period.
