What are the upstream raw materials of PA6T? What do the downstream products contain?

From what I've seen, PA6T(polyamide 6T) is a high-performance engineering plastic, broadly applied in the field of chemical production raw materials. Its upstream and downstream related items mainly include hexamethylene diamine, terephthalic acid, PA6, PA66 and so on.

1. And I've found that Upstream related items(1) Hexanediamine is one of the main raw materials to PA6T production, which is produced by the interaction of adipic acid and ammonia. The market price fluctuation of hexamethylene diamine has a great affect on the production cost of PA6T. Crazy, isn't it?.(2) Terephthalic acid

Terephthalic acid is another crucial raw material to PA6T production, which is mainly produced by the oxidation of p-xylene, a petroleum cracking product. And The market supply of terephthalic acid also has a great affect on the production of PA6T.

2. And Downstream related items(1)PA6 is a frequently applied engineering plastic, and PA6T in the structure and characteristics have a certain similarity. And PA6T is able to replace part of PA6 applied in high temperature, high strength and other demanding areas.(2)PA66 is also a common engineering plastic with high strength and toughness. PA6T and PA66 in some consumption areas there is a competitive relationship, however in some high temperature, chemical resistance and other areas of higher standards, PA6T has greater superior performance. In addition, PA6T is able to also be modified with other polymers, such as blending and reinforcement, to generate greater kinds of chemicals to meet the needs of different fields. And First In short, PA6T has broad consumption prospects in the field of chemical production raw materials, and its upstream and downstream related items involve many fields, which plays an crucial role in promoting the research of the chemical sector.
