Executive Summary

Adipic acid is a white crystalline, mildly toxic compound with carbon isomeric bonds. This C6 straight-chain dicarboxylic acid is slightly soluble in water and completely soluble in alcohol and acetone. This acid is used primarily as a precursor to produce polyamide. It is also used to give some imitation food products a pungent flavor and in the fabrication of some low-temperature synthetic lubricants, synthetic fibers, coatings, plastics, polyurethane resins, and plasticizers. It has a tart taste and is used as a gelling agent and additive in jello or gelatins. It is insoluble in water. It is the most important dicarboxylic acid and is mainly used as a precursor to produce polyamide 6/6.

Adipic acid is used in many end-use applications such as automotive; electrical and electronics; synthetic leather; shoe soles; sporting goods; packaging films and coatings; food and beverage/pharmaceuticals; and others (others include food additive, fillers, cosmetics, lubricants, paper additives, polyester molding agents and other chemical intermediates). By region, the market is divided into Asia-Pacific, North America, Europe, South America, and the Middle East and Africa. The report covers market drivers, restraints, opportunities and challenges that determine the scope of the market and trends.

The adipic acid market has grown significantly during the past few years and is expected to grow at a more rapid pace in the next five years. The market has continued to expand, and new technological developments and industry changes have also taken place. Demand is expected to increase due to high demand from a broad range of end-use applications such as automotive; electrical and electronics; shoe soles; sporting goods; synthetic leather; packaging films and coatings; and food and beverage/pharmaceuticals across the globe. The demand for adipic acid is growing mainly due to growing automotive and electrical/ electronic applications. The adipic acid market is expected to witness significant growth in the coming five years. Also, growing demand for durable polyamide 6/6 and recyclable bio-based adipic acid would drive the demand for adipic acid. However, fluctuating raw materials prices used in adipic acid may hamper market growth during the forecast period.

Sales of adipic acid products are projected to continue growing at a healthy rate during the next five years, driven by increasing demand from engine covers, air-intake manifolds, armrests, cushions, mirror brackets, and radiator end tanks in the automotive sector; connectors, relays, switches, plugs, coil bobbins, and buttons and knobs in the electrical and electronics sector; midsoles, boots, cleats, plates and leather shoes for the shoe soles sector; and bags, sofas, gloves and door panels for the synthetic leather sector.
