Abstract:

This paper reported a comparative introduction and analysis on the homopolymerization?type and copolymerization?type semi?aromatic polyamides in terms of their classification, structure, and performance, and also introduced their production methods in industry by taking poly(hexamethylene terephthalamide) as a typical case. The current situation and development dynamics in the oversea industry of semi?aromatic polyamides were summarized according to the production capacity and programming of each manufacturer. Furthermore, the development status and existential problems in the industry of semi?aromatic polyamides in China were also discussed. Finally, the applications of semi?aromatic polyamides in the fields of electronic & electrical and automobile industries were introduced, and their development trend in future was prospected.

Key words: semi?aromatic polyamides, application, commercialization, industry trend
