Polyethylene
napthalate also abbreviated as PEN is a type of polyester exhibiting
excellent barrier properties. Polyethylene napthalate is chemically
similar to polyethylene terepthalate (PET), however it’s more
temperature resistant and acts as a better barrier compared to PET.
Polyethylene napthalate films exhibit several desirable
characteristics such as excellent dielectric strength, superior
hydrolysis resistance, excellent dimensional stability, good thermal
conductivity, high mechanical strength and low thermal shrinkage.
Commercial market for polyethylene napthalate is still in a nascent
stage and the full potential of the product is yet to be realized.
However polyethylene napthalate has found acceptance in several
applications such as textiles, industrial fibers, foamed articles,
containers for beverages, films and other thermoformed applications.
Polyethylene napthalate is generally available in the market in the
form of laminates, granules, rods and films.

The
primary driver for the polyethylene napthalate market is its
application in electrical and electronic equipments. Owing to the
high temperature resistance and good dielectric constant PEN provides
excellent volumetric efficiency for metalized construction which is
required in capacitors. Polyethylene napthalate films exhibits
characteristics for signal coupling, filtering and bypassing
applications. Polyethylene terepthalate is also used for the same
applications in the electrical and electronics market, however the
acceptance of polyethylene napthalate has been on the rise owing to
superior physical and chemical characteristics. Another major
application of polyethylene napthalate is in the bottle manufacturing
industry. PEN had been approved by the FDA to be used as containers
for carbonated beverage, water, personal care products and house hold
chemicals among others. Perishable food and beverage items which are
required to be protected from sunlight and oxygen such as fruit
juices and beer provide a considerable market to polyethylene
napthale. Polyethylene napthalate is also lighter in weight compared
to polyethylene terpthalate and more and more manufacturers are
turning to it in order to reduce shipping cost through reduction in
shipping weight. More recently polyethylene napthalte has found
application in automotive tire cord manufacturing due to its
excellent dimensional stability and temperature resistance.
Polyethylene terepthalate filaments are also used in the textile
industry to produce low tex textile products.
In
spite of the enormous potential market for polyethylene napthalate,
there exist certain restraining factors to the market’s growth.
Polyethylene napthalate is more expensive compared to PET and display
a shorter flex life. The higher cost acts as a deterrent to the
market but with growing production capacities the cost is expected to
subside in the future. Tremendous opportunity rests with polyethylene
napthalate products as it has potential to be a substitute to the
polyethylene terepthalate products. The market for PEN is still small
compared to its predecessor, but the market dynamics are expected to
change gradually in favor of polyethylene napthalate products with
the reduction in its price.
North
America accounts for the highest demand for polyethylene napthalate
market followed by Europe. Electronics and food and beverage
applications are the main market drivers for the market in these
regions. Asia Pacific market is slower that North America and Europe,
but the market presents enormous opportunity in the future. China and
Japan are the main producing countries in Asia Pacific region.
Some
of the companies operating in the polyethylene napthalate market are
DuPont, Teijin Ltd., and Advansa Sasa Polyester San A.S. among many
others.
