Glass fiber reinforced nylon (glass fiber reinforced polyamide) has a wide range of applications and the number of companies in our country continues to grow.

Glass fiber reinforced nylon, also known as glass fiber reinforced polyamide and glass fiber reinforced nylon, refers to nylon plastic made by adding a certain amount of glass fiber to nylon resin for reinforcement. Glass fiber reinforced nylon has the advantages of good injection moldability, excellent mechanical properties, good self-lubricating properties, and good dimensional stability. It is widely used in automobile manufacturing, engineering machinery, drone manufacturing and other fields.

The main preparation methods of glass fiber reinforced nylon include long fiber method and short fiber method. During the preparation process, parameters such as processing temperature, screw speed, and injection pressure need to be strictly controlled. After years of development, the technological maturity of my country’s glass fiber reinforced nylon technology has continued to improve, driving the market share of high-performance products to further increase.

According to the “2023-2028 China’s glass fiber reinforced nylon (glass fiber reinforced polyamide) industry market in-depth research and development prospect forecast report》 shows that glass fiber reinforced nylon has a wide range of application fields, with automobile manufacturing, engineering machinery, and drone manufacturing as its main demand ends. In recent years, with in-depth research and technological advancement, glass fiber reinforced nylon has gradually shown broad application prospects in the field of drone manufacturing. Glass fiber reinforced nylon 66 has excellent comprehensive properties and can be used to manufacture drone propellers and fuselage materials. As the prosperity of my country’s drone industry increases, the market demand for glass fiber reinforced nylon will become increasingly strong.

There are many players in the global glass fiber reinforced nylon market, mainly including Japan’s Kuraray Co., Ltd. (Kurary), Japan’s Ube Co., Ltd. (UBE), Belgium’s Solvay Group (Solvay), the United States DuPont (DuPont), and the United States Solutia Corporation ( Saflex), Germany’s BASF AG (BASF), Germany’s LANXESS Group (LANXESS), etc. Japan’s Kuraray is the world’s largest manufacturer of glass fiber reinforced nylon. Genestar™ PA9T G1300H, Genestar™ PA9T GR2300, Genestar™ PA9T TA112 and Genestar™ PA9T G1350H are its representative products of glass fiber reinforced nylon, with sales ranking among the world’s leading companies. .

In terms of the local market, attracted by market prospects, the number of companies in my country developing glass fiber reinforced nylon has increased. Sinochem Technology, Cathay Biotechnology, Junmao Technology, Yuehua Chemical, Times Industrial Plastics, Zhongzhi New Materials, etc. are the main players in my country’s glass fiber reinforced nylon market. Compared with overseas developed countries, my country’s glass fiber reinforced nylon industry started late, but its development momentum is rapid. The high-performance continuous glass fiber reinforced nylon 6 jointly developed by Times Plastics and Yuehua Chemical Industry has reached the world’s leading quality and has now been applied in engineering applications.

Industry analysts said that glass fiber reinforced nylon has broad application prospects in many fields. In the future, with the gradual release of downstream demand, its market space will be expanded further. In recent years, Chinese companies have continued to increase investment in research and development, driving the technological level of glass fiber reinforced nylon to continue to improve. It is expected that in the future, my country’s glass fiber reinforced nylon industry will gradually develop towards high quality and high performance.
