Caprolactam or Azepan-2-one is a solution which is a crystalline cyclic amide. It is primarily employed in the production of synthetic fibres, Nylon 6 filament, fibre, and plastics.

The solution appears to be a clear to milky, white-coloured solution with a subtle and disagreeable smell. It is water-soluble and can be dissolved with almost all oxygenated and chlorinated solvents and some hydrocarbons. Its melting point is 70 °C and is harmful when in contact with the nose, throat, eyes, skin, and mucous membranes, causing little irritation and burning. It can also be a little toxic when ingested.

The applications driving Caprolactam's market growth are its use in the production of Nylon 6 filament, fibre, and plastics. In addition, it is being widely used in making textiles and carpets of various colours and designs, which furthers the market growth.

Since Caprolactam monomer has applications in producing the chemical fibre Nylon 6, it finds use in the manufacturing of the textile industry's non-woven fabrics, which have excellent properties, like being solid, lightweight, colourful and durable. It is also easily dyed, which gives it a bright and deep colour boosting its popularity among consumers and bolstering the industry's expansion. Also, these products offer anti-abrasion, anti-wear, tear, crushing, and matting properties, making them last longer and furthering the market's development.
