A
new research report by Transparency Market Research offers a
comprehensive evaluation of the global Polyethylene
Napthalate
market. The study,
titled “Polyethylene
Napthalate Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth,
Trends and Forecast 2014 - 2020”,
is available for sale on the firm’s website.
Polyethylene
napthalate also abbreviated as PEN is a type of polyester exhibiting
excellent barrier properties. Polyethylene napthalate is chemically
similar to polyethylene terepthalate (PET), however it’s more
temperature resistant and acts as a better barrier compared to PET.
Polyethylene napthalate films exhibit several desirable
characteristics such as excellent dielectric strength, superior
hydrolysis resistance, excellent dimensional stability, good thermal
conductivity, high mechanical strength and low thermal shrinkage.
Commercial market for polyethylene napthalate is still in a nascent
stage and the full potential of the product is yet to be realized.
However polyethylene napthalate has found acceptance in several
applications such as textiles, industrial fibers, foamed articles,
containers for beverages, films and other thermoformed applications.
Polyethylene napthalate is generally available in the market in the
form of laminates, granules, rods and films.

The
primary driver for the polyethylene napthalate market is its
application in electrical and electronic equipments. Owing to the
high temperature resistance and good dielectric constant PEN provides
excellent volumetric efficiency for metalized construction which is
required in capacitors. Polyethylene napthalate films exhibits
characteristics for signal coupling, filtering and bypassing
applications. Polyethylene terepthalate is also used for the same
applications in the electrical and electronics market, however the
acceptance of polyethylene napthalate has been on the rise owing to
superior physical and chemical characteristics. Another major
application of polyethylene napthalate is in the bottle manufacturing
industry.
PEN
had been approved by the FDA to be used as containers for carbonated
beverage, water, personal care products and house hold chemicals
among others. Perishable food and beverage items which are required
to be protected from sunlight and oxygen such as fruit juices and
beer provide a considerable market to polyethylene napthale.
Polyethylene napthalate is also lighter in weight compared to
polyethylene terpthalate and more and more manufacturers are turning
to it in order to reduce shipping cost through reduction in shipping
weight. More recently polyethylene napthalte has found application in
automotive tire cord manufacturing due to its excellent dimensional
stability and temperature resistance. Polyethylene terepthalate
filaments are also used in the textile industry to produce low tex
textile products.
In
spite of the enormous potential market for polyethylene napthalate,
there exist certain restraining factors to the market’s growth.
Polyethylene napthalate is more expensive compared to PET and display
a shorter flex life. The higher cost acts as a deterrent to the
market but with growing production capacities the cost is expected to
subside in the future. Tremendous opportunity rests with polyethylene
napthalate products as it has potential to be a substitute to the
polyethylene terepthalate products. The market for PEN is still small
compared to its predecessor, but the market dynamics are expected to
change gradually in favor of polyethylene napthalate products with
the reduction in its price.
