About Acrylonitrile
Acrylonitrile is a colorless and clear liquid with a slightly pungent odor. It is globally used to manufacture resins, rubber, plastics, synthetic fibers, and elastomers. It is also used to manufacture carbon fibers used in the defense, aerospace, and aircraft industries. Acrylonitrile is mainly used to manufacture acrylic fibers, acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) and styrene acrylonitrile (SAN) resins, polyacrylamide (PAM), nitrile butadiene rubber (NBR), and others, including carbon fiber and acrylonitrile styrene acrylate.
Technavio’s analysts forecast the global acrylonitrile market to grow at a CAGR of 3.24% during the period 2017-2021.
