This is likely to create lucrative opportunities for players operating in the global market. The Global Hexamethylene Diamine Market report provides a holistic evaluation of the market. The report offers a comprehensive analysis of key segments, trends, drivers, restraints, competitive landscape, and factors that are playing a substantial role in the market.
Global Hexamethylene Diamine Market Definition
Hexamethylenediamine, abbreviated as HMDA, is an organic compound having the chemical formula H2N (CH2)6NH2. It is a colorless solid with a prominent amine odor. HMDA consists of a hexamethylene hydrocarbon chain terminated with an amine functional group. It can be used as a chemical intermediate, corrosion inhibitor, and curing agent.
Hexamethylenediamine is synthesized from adiponitrile and is useful in a wide range of applications in the chemical industry. Hexamethylenediamine is used as a chemical intermediate monomer in the production of polymers such as nylon 6-6. In addition to this, it is also used in the manufacturing of coatings, curing agents, additives in the petrochemical industry, inks, and scale and corrosion inhibitors used in water treatment chemicals.
Moreover, hexamethylenediamine is used in combination with dicarboxylic acids for the production of other nylons such as nylon 69, nylon 610, and nylon 612. It is also used as a hardener for epoxy resins. In recent years, the demand for bio-based hexamethylenediamine needed for manufacturing nylon 66 has increased immensely. Thus, it has extensive applications in various end-use industries such as water treatment, textile, and automotive. Additionally, it is also used in manufacturing resins that can be used in adhesives and paints. Over the years, the demand for bio-based HMDA has increased for the production of nylon 66 owing to the green revolution.

Global Hexamethylene Diamine Market Overview
The major consumption area of HMDA is the production of nylon 6-6 resins and fiber. Hence, an increment in the demand for nylon 66 will have a positive impact on the HMDA market. With the growth of nylon as a major substitute for a number of applications, especially in the automotive industry where nylon has substituted metals in a number of applications, it is expected that the hexamethylenediamine market will grow at a fast pace. A significant increase in demand for bio-based nylon resins has increased over the past few years, hence companies are focusing on creating bio-based production technology for the production of HMDA. The only differentiating factor for bio-based production of HMDA is raw material prices, cost-effectiveness, and the production process. During the past few years, there has been a significant rise in demand for hexamethylenediamine which is used for the manufacturing of nylon 6-6 resins.
Moreover, the increase in usage of nylon materials in place of metal to reduce the overall body weight of material has augmented its consumption. Further, its use to manufacture curing agents, paints, and coatings is anticipated to boost the Hexamethylene Diamine Market. It is used in petrochemical industry to manufacture polyamides that is utilized in 3D printing. Demand for 3D printing has increased in recent years and shall enhance its consumption.
However, the increasing research and development focused on the development of a better substitute to replace the use of hexamethylenediamine during the manufacturing of nylon 66 is a major restraint for the market. Additionally, these are quite corrosive and require high cost for their manufacturing, packing and transportation. Stringent government regulations for risk management and manufacturing may pose a challenge in near future. Further, these are quite harmful and can cause irritation, skin burns and eye damage. It is not easy to dispose as it is harmful to invertebrates.
