Market Insights:

The market for adipic acid is witnessing growth on the back of rising demand from automobile and electronic industry. The foremost application of adipic acid is to produce nylon. These materials are extensively used in the manufacture of automobile components to reduce total weight which increases fuel efficiency. Moreover improvement in infrastructures and growth of the housing in emerging economies such as India, China, Brazil, and Middle East will also drive the market demand for adipic acid. Nylon Resin in also use in footwear industry and as the footwear industry is slated to grow significantly especially in economies such as Russia and China is further projected to drive the demand for adipic acid in the near future.

Rising environmental concerns is hampering the market growth and inducing vendors to shift towards bio based adipic acid. Recently, start-up companies such as Verdezyne, Celexion, BioAmber, Genomatica and Rennovia have developed bio-based ways to produce adipic acid, with a target to create pure (100%) bio-based nylon; some have succeed to reach advanced pilot or demonstration scales. Bio- based adipic acid is gaining momentum due to its low costs when compared to its synthetic counterparts.

Bio- based adipic acid is anticipated to be beneficial in almost all applications for which their synthetic counterpart is used at present. The opportunity in the adipic acid market lies with bio-based adipic acid which has...
