Northeast Asia: In Northeast Asia, adipic acid prices remained largely stable with marginal upward movement, supported by steady demand from nylon 6,6 producers. The adipic acid price index showed limited gains as balanced feedstock cyclohexanone availability kept production stable. Export activity remained consistent, though subdued demand from certain downstream applications moderated any significant increases. Overall, the market maintained equilibrium, with cautious procurement reflecting an expectation of restrained short-term price volatility.
Europe: In Europe, adipic acid prices rose modestly as sustained demand from automotive and industrial plastics applications supported procurement activity. The adipic acid price index reflected this upward momentum, further aided by tightening supply due to scheduled maintenance at select facilities. Downstream demand from polyurethane and coatings sectors also added strength, while imports provided only partial relief to regional supply constraints. Market sentiment was steady, with buyers maintaining regular procurement amid expectations of continued demand.
North America: In North America, adipic acid prices registered the sharpest increase among key regions, driven by resilient demand from the nylon and polyurethane sectors. The adipic acid price index highlighted a bullish trend as robust industrial activity, particularly in automotive and construction, supported strong offtake. Limited supply availability, alongside steady feedstock supplies, added further upward pressure. Buyers showed willingness to secure volumes despite rising prices, underscoring strong market fundamentals this quarter.

The global adipic acid industry size reached USD 6.54 Billion in 2024. By 2033, IMARC Group expects the market to reach USD 10.59 Billion, at a projected CAGR of 5.23% during 2025-2033. Market growth is fueled by rising demand in nylon 6,6 production for automotive and engineering plastics, expanding applications in polyurethane foams and coatings, and increased consumption across construction and industrial sectors globally.
Adipic acid (C₆H₁₀O₄) is a white crystalline organic compound, classified as a dicarboxylic acid. It is primarily produced through the oxidation of cyclohexanone or cyclohexanol using nitric acid. Adipic acid is highly valued for its role as a precursor in the manufacture of nylon 6,6, which is widely used in textiles, automotive components, and engineering plastics. It also finds applications in the production of polyurethane foams, adhesives, plasticizers, and coatings. In food processing, it is occasionally used as an acidity regulator. Its stability, solubility, and ability to enhance polymer properties make it a critical industrial chemical, underpinning demand in both consumer goods and high-performance material applications.
