Global Acrylonitrile Market – Market Dynamics

Key Trends – The increase in carbon fiber production is identified as the key trend in the market. Carbon fiber is lighter and stronger than steel. This has increased its use in the aerospace and defense, sports and leisure, wind energy, and automotive industries. For instance, in the aerospace and defense industry, carbon fibers are used to manufacture various structures and components. Some of the applications include hot air balloon gondolas and gliders, passenger airliners, fighter planes, and space shuttles. In the automotive industry, carbon fibers are used as fairings for recumbent bikes. The growing demand for carbon fiber will increase the consumption of acrylonitrile during the forecast period.

Major challenges – Fluctuating prices of raw materials is the major challenge affecting the growth of the market. Acrylonitrile is produced commercially by propylene ammoxidation. The process is also known as the Sohio process and is widely used by vendors. The process involves the use of raw materials such as propylene and ammonia. The fluctuation in the prices of these raw materials is adversely affecting the production of acrylonitrile, thereby hindering market growth.
