PAN MARKET SEGMENTATION

By Type

Based on type the market can be categorized into Acrylic Staple Fiber, and Acrylic Tow

• Acrylic Staple Fiber: It has a soft and warm texture similar to cashmere and wool. It is used in sweaters, cut and sewn products, underwear, and socks.

• Acrylic Tow: Acrylic yarn is made from Acrylic tow which is a man-made fiber basic derivative is acrylonitrile which is further made from crude oil.

By Application

Based on application the market can be categorized into Textiles, Precursors to carbon fiber, Fiber-reinforced Concrete

• Textiles: It is usually used as textile owing to its soft and wool-like touch. Most PAN textiles are polymers and they are further dissolved in solvent or a liquid and then extruded into any bath of fluid.

• Precursor to Carbon Fiber: Polyacrylonitrile (PAN) is the mostly used precursor for carbon fiber due to its superior strength and stability, and higher carbon yield.

• Fiber-reinforced Concrete: fiber reinforced concrete is used in applications with heavy-duty concrete requirements such as bridges, floors, tunnels, mining, and precasts.
