Premium Adiponitrile Solutions by Aure Chemical
Aure Chemical is a leading global supplier of Adiponitrile (ADN), also systematically known as Hexanedinitrile or 1,4-Dicyanobutane. This vital dinitrile is arguably one of the most strategically important chemical intermediates globally, primarily serving as the direct precursor to hexamethylenediamine (HMDA). HMDA is, in turn, a key monomer for the production of Nylon 6,6, one of the most widely used engineering plastics worldwide. Our high-purity Adiponitrile is essential for ensuring the superior quality and performance of polyamides and various other specialty chemicals.

Primary Applications of Adiponitrile (ADN)
Adiponitrile's unique structure with two terminal nitrile groups makes it an incredibly valuable and strategic chemical intermediate with applications primarily in:
Nylon 6,6 Production (via Hexamethylenediamine):
The overwhelming majority of Adiponitrile produced globally is hydrogenated to yield Hexamethylenediamine (HMDA). HMDA is then reacted with adipic acid to form Nylon 6,6 (polyamide 6,6), a high-performance engineering plastic. Nylon 6,6 is used in a vast array of applications including:
Fibers: Textiles, carpets, apparel, tire cords.
Plastics: Automotive parts, electrical connectors, consumer goods, industrial components (due to its excellent strength, stiffness, and heat resistance).
Chemical Intermediate for Specialty Polyamides:
Beyond Nylon 6,6, Adiponitrile can be used to synthesize other specialty polyamides with tailored properties for specific high-performance applications.
Pharmaceutical Synthesis:
While a smaller volume application, Adiponitrile can serve as a building block in the synthesis of certain pharmaceutical compounds and intermediates, leveraging its dinitrile functionality for complex organic reactions.
Other Specialty Chemicals:
It also finds niche applications in the production of other fine chemicals and specialty compounds where a linear C6 dinitrile structure is required.
