- Cyclohexane, a crucial intermediate in the production of nylon, is increasingly vital in the chemical and polymer industries, particularly for the manufacturing of adipic acid and caprolactam—key precursors in nylon 6 and nylon 66 production
- The escalating demand for nylon-based products in the automotive, textile, and electronics industries is primarily fueling the growth of the Cyclohexane market. Its use in lightweight and high-strength materials supports trends toward improved efficiency and durability
- Asia-Pacific dominates the Cyclohexane market with the largest revenue share of 40.01% in 2025, driven by a strong chemical manufacturing base, rapid industrialization, and significant demand from end-use sectors in China, India, and Southeast Asia
- Europe is expected to be the fastest-growing region in the Cyclohexane market during the forecast period due to the region’s increasing focus on sustainable nylon production, technological innovations, and growing investments in downstream chemical facilities
- The caprolactam production segment is expected to dominate the Cyclohexane market with a market share of 43.2% in 2025, owing to its extensive application in producing nylon 6 for use in fibers, films, and molded plastics
