Keeping in mind the uncertainties of COVID-19, we are continuously tracking and evaluating the direct as well as the indirect influence of the pandemic on different end use industries. These insights are included in the report as a major market contributor.
Bio-polymides are a new class of bioplastics that are derived from renewable resources such as natural fats and oils. These materials are environment friendly and are used in many (demanding) applications such as automotive fuel lines, pneumatic air brake tubing, electrical cable jacketing, flexible oil and gas pipes, and powder coatings. Some novel applications include tooth brushes, carpets, tires, sporting goods (sports shoes and outdoor apparel), and electronic casings.
A major driver is the fact that bio-polyamides have a unique property of low friction which proves to be favourable for many automotive products such as gears, bushings, and plastic bearings. A wide use of bio-polyamide has been noticed in the manufacturing of consumer goods such as toys, electronic goods and functions requiring high temperatures etc. The applications which possess a potential of high wear and tear can be enhanced by using bio-polyamide materials. Moreover, bio-polyamides also exhibit a superior environment profile as they are synthesised by combining renewable or bio-based raw materials such as castor oil and result in reduced greenhouse emission. Other factors driving the demand of bio-polyamides include excellent mechanical and thermal performance, strong chemical resistance, low moisture absorption, etc.
