PA66 (Nylon 66) Production Cost Report

PA66 (Nylon 66) is a type of polyamide with exceptional characteristics such as high strength, stiffness, and resistance to heat and chemicals, which makes it a preferred material in the automotive sector for engine components, fuel systems, and electrical connectors & insulation. Additionally, it is utilized in the textile sector for apparel, upholstery, and carpets, as well as in the packaging industry for food packaging and industrial packaging.

Its exceptional strength, stiffness, and fatigue resistance make it ideal for use in the renewable energy industry for applications such as wear pads, slide bearings, and wind turbine blades and in the medical industry for surgical sutures and medical implants.

The increasing demand for manufacturing high-strength components for lightweight and fuel-efficient vehicles is driving the demand for PA66 (Nylon 66) in the renewable energy industry. It is also widely used in the electrical and electronics industries for applications such as cable insulation, connectors, and circuit breakers, which further boosts its market expansion for the electrical and electronics industry.

Due to its high mechanical strength and chemical resistance, it is widely used in wear pads and slide bearings for the automotive, aerospace, and construction industries. It is often used in fibers for textile industries and in the medical industry for manufacturing medical implants, surgical sutures, and injection molding, which enhances its demand. Additionally, the availability and cost of production of PA66 (Nylon 66)'s feedstock (adipic acid, hexamethylene diamine), PA66 (Nylon 66) market prices, environmental regulations & safety concerns, storage, handling, distribution (including trading and shipping), logistics, etc., are some of the elements that influence an industrial PA66 (Nylon 66) procurement. Its use as a vital component for the textile, electronic, automotive, medical, construction, and other industries has a significant impact on the commodity's global procurement.

Raw Material for PA66 (Nylon 66) Production

According to the PA66 (Nylon 66) manufacturing plant project report, the major raw materials for PA66 (Nylon 66) production include Adipic Acid-Hexamethylene diamine.

Manufacturing Process of PA66 (Nylon 66)

The extensive PA66 (Nylon 66) production cost report consists of this major industrial manufacturing process:

  • Production via mass process: The synthesis of hexamethylene diammonium adipate salt from adipic acid and hexamethylenediamine is the first step in the manufacturing of Nylon 6,6. After that, this intermediate is polymerized by a polycondensation process to create Nylon 66, where water is eliminated to encourage the development of polymers. The polymer melt is then sent to the finishing area, where it is formed into fibers or other shapes via extrusion and solidification. This process produces Nylon 66.

Nylon 6,6, also known as PA 6,6 is a synthetic polymer belonging to the polyamide family. Composed of two monomers, hexamethylenediamine and adipic acid, it is a thermoplastic polymer that generates long polyamide chains upon reaction. It exhibits exceptional mechanical properties such as high strength, toughness, stiffness, and resistance to abrasion, chemicals, and heat. With a density ranging from approximately 1.14-1.15 g/cm3, it is a moderately lightweight material.

It has a melting point of roughly 260-265°C, making it a high-temperature polymer. Its tensile strength ranges from 70-100 MPa, and Nylon 6,6 exhibits high stiffness due to its Young's modulus of approximately 2.7-3.0 GPa.

The polymer also has a high elongation at break, ranging between 20-60%. It absorbs water at a relatively high rate, approximately 8-9% at saturation, and is resistant to a wide range of substances, including oils, greases, and solvents. However, it is UV-sensitive and may disintegrate upon exposure to sunlight for extended periods.
