Global Polyketones Market Demand & Forecast Analysis, 2016-2032

Polyketone Market Overview 

Polyketone is a high-performance thermoplastic polymer that finds applications in automotive, water purifier, toys, medical devices, pipes, films, and water meter owing to its properties such as excellent chemical and abrasion resistance, low moisture absorption property, ductility, and toughness. Hyosung Chemical is the sole producer of polyketone globally, having manufacturing facility in Yoengyeon, Ulsan, South Korea with production capacity of 50 kilo tons/annum. The company produces 40 kilo tons of Polyketone each year.

With the presence of a strong automotive industry, Asia-Pacific dominates the global polyketone market. Polyketone is used by Automotive OEMs in manufacturing of connectors, fuel lines, seals, interior and exterior parts such as instrument panels, door handles, bumper system, exterior trims, etc. Polyketone based materials are used in fuel systems such as injection nozzles, connectors, fuel rails due to its ability to withstand harsh conditions.  Additionally, polyketone is used in making components of electric vehicles.

Growing automotive industry in countries such as China, India is driving the market of polyketone in the Asia Pacific. For instance, China’s automotive production increased 3% to reach 26 million units in 2021.  Domestic production of the country is projected to reach 35 million units by 2025. China’s vehicle sales rose 7.1% to reach 26 million units in 2021. 
Furthermore, the electric vehicles market will provide growth opportunity for polyketones during the forecast. Traditionally, polyamides like PA 6 were used in connectors of electric vehicles. Polyketone can replace polyamide 6 owing to the latter’s water absorption property which causes dimensional instability in the vehicle part. Additionally, production of polyketone also reduces carbon emission by up to 61% than the production of PA66 and PA6 thereby reducing its carbon footprint.  

Recent Developments in Polyketone Market

Jabil developed PK 5000 made from polyketone for application in automotive, consumer electrionics, medical, defence, 3D printing and industrial manufacturing applications in 2022. The polyketone based material offers properties such as better high-impact strength, chemical and abrasion resistance, and resilience than nylon-based materials such as polyamide 12. Additionally, PK 5000 offers high barrier properties with low moisture absorption property and it is made from low carbon polyketone, thereby reducing overall carbon footprint of the product. 
Avient Corporation exhibited two new grades of polyketone with non-halogenated retardants for its application in electric vehicles including connectors at The Battery Show Europe in 2021.
