Nylon 6 chips are usually in the form of white granules, usually polymerised from caprolactam, soluble in phenol and hot concentrated sulphuric acid, with excellent electrical insulation properties, good abrasion resistance, self-lubrication and solvent resistance.
PA 6 chips are produced from caprolactam through polymerization reaction. They are usually white cylindrical flake particles. They are widely used in nylon fibers (including civil fibers and industrial fibers), engineering plastics and film manufacturing fields. They are the link chemical industry in the nylon industry. Raw materials and intermediates for downstream applications.
In terms of global competition, nylon 6 chip manufacturers are mainly concentrated in China (including Taiwan), Germany, the Netherlands and other countries and regions. The market share of the top 5 companies in the world exceeds 40%.
