What Are The Major Trends That Will Shape The Engineering Plastics Market In The Future?
The engineering plastics market is seeing a rise in the prominence of bio-based or recycled-based materials, a trend that is being embraced by major businesses in the sector. These companies are shifting their focus to development of these eco-friendly alternatives to fortify their standings in the market. An example of this is Toray Industries, Inc., a producer of Engineering plastics like PPS, nylon, and PBT, based in Japan, which in August 2022 pioneered a fully bio-based adipic acid – a key component of nylon 66 (polyamide 66). This innovation was achieved using sugars derived from non-consumable feedstock, made possible via the synthesis of the firm's microbial fermentation and chemical purification technologies, which involves the use of separating membranes.
