Tried Chip component from both support library
com.google.android.support:design:28.0.0-rc01
and material
com.google.android.material:material:1.0.0-rc01
StackTrace
android.view.InflateException: Binary XML file line #72: Binary XML file
line #72: Error inflating class com.google.android.material.chip.Chip
at android.view.LayoutInflater.inflate(LayoutInflater.java:551)

Layout
<com.google.android.material.chip.Chip
android:id="@+id/chip"
style="style/Widget.MaterialComponents.Chip.Entry"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="@string/account"
app:closeIconEnabled="true" />`
Update your app theme to inherit from one of these themes:
Theme.MaterialComponents
Theme.MaterialComponents.NoActionBar
Theme.MaterialComponents.Light
Theme.MaterialComponents.Light.NoActionBar
Theme.MaterialComponents.Light.DarkActionBar
For example:
<style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.MaterialComponents.Light.NoActionBar">
Note: Using a Material Components theme enables a custom view inflater

Finally Got a solution as how to generate chips dynamically using new material chips
Google has not provided any documentation for chipsInput layout or how to make a gmail address like layout. Using ChipDrawable won't give delete operation on chip option as can't call setOnCloseIconClickListener. I was able to do using HorizontalScrollView, ChipGroup and EditText
Here's my code sample :
MaterialChipsInputDemo
Add the following new theme attributes to your existing app theme:
<style name="Theme.MyApp" parent="Theme.AppCompat">
<!-- Original AppCompat attributes. -->
<item name="colorPrimary">@color/my_app_primary_color</item>
<item name="colorPrimaryDark">@color/my_app_primary_dark_color</item>
<item name="colorAccent">@color/my_app_accent_color</item>
<!-- New MaterialComponents attributes. -->
<item name="colorSecondary">?attr/colorPrimary</item>
<item name="scrimBackground">@color/mtrl_scrim_color</item>
<item name="textAppearanceHeadline1">@style/TextAppearance.MaterialComponents.Headline1</item>
<item name="textAppearanceHeadline2">@style/TextAppearance.MaterialComponents.Headline2</item>
<item name="textAppearanceHeadline3">@style/TextAppearance.MaterialComponents.Headline3</item>
<item name="textAppearanceHeadline4">@style/TextAppearance.MaterialComponents.Headline4</item>
<item name="textAppearanceHeadline5">@style/TextAppearance.MaterialComponents.Headline5</item>
<item name="textAppearanceHeadline6">@style/TextAppearance.MaterialComponents.Headline6</item>
<item name="textAppearanceSubtitle1">@style/TextAppearance.MaterialComponents.Subtitle1</item>
<item name="textAppearanceSubtitle2">@style/TextAppearance.MaterialComponents.Subtitle2</item>
<item name="textAppearanceBody1">@style/TextAppearance.MaterialComponents.Body1</item>
<item name="textAppearanceBody2">@style/TextAppearance.MaterialComponents.Body2</item>
<item name="textAppearanceCaption">@style/TextAppearance.MaterialComponents.Caption</item>
<item name="textAppearanceButton">@style/TextAppearance.MaterialComponents.Button</item>
<item name="textAppearanceOverline">@style/TextAppearance.MaterialComponents.Overline</item>
</style>
