LONDON (ICIS)–Relatively flat demand trends and evolving global supply dynamics evident in H2 2024 are expected to largely persist within the European acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) and acrylonitrile (ACN) markets in Q1 2025.
In this latest podcast, Europe ABS report editor Stephanie Wix and her counterpart on the Europe ACN report, Nazif Nazmul, share the latest developments and expectations for what lies ahead.
- Macroeconomic challenges expected to continue limiting ABS and ACN demand through Q4 into Q1 2025
- ABS and ACN availability likely to remain lengthy
- Import-led ABS competition could increase in Q1 2025
ABS is the largest-volume engineering thermoplastic resin and is used in automobiles, electronics and recreational products.
ACN is used in the production of synthetic fibres for clothing and home furnishings, engineering plastics and elastomers.
