Pune, India, April, 2018 /press release/- Market Research Future Published a Half Cooked Research Report on Global Polyethylene Naphthalate Research Report.

Market Overview

Polyethylene naphthalate finds its applications in beverage bottling, food packaging, electronics, rubber tires, and others. The beverage bottling and the food packaging applications are dominating the global polyethylene naphthalate market owing to the higher dimensional stability, enhanced barrier properties, and high temperature and chemical resistance. The product is excessively consumed in the packaging of beverages, which are vulnerable to oxidation, such as carbonated drinks, beer, and wine. It is also used in packaging of dairy products such as milk yogurt, condensed milk, buttermilk, and others. The use of the polyethylene naphthalate in food packaging and beverage bottling also increases the shelf life of the product. Thus, on account of the aforementioned factors food & beverage packaging is expected to account for the largest market share for polyethylene naphthalate in the global market. Furthermore, the growing use of polyethylene naphthalate in electronics & electrical industry to manufacture capacitors, cables, wires, optical devices, and others is anticipated to propel the market growth over the assessment period. The increasing demand for the product in the manufacturing of rubber tires is likely to propel the market growth in the automotive sector. The shifting trends towards the use of renewable energy sources is another underlying factor augmenting the product demand as it is used in solar cell protection.
