Polybutadiene rubber is an elastomeric synthetic rubber manufactured through the anionic or coordination polymerization of butadiene monomers. It is commonly available in solid and liquid variants. Polybutadiene rubber is blended with natural rubber and styrene-butadiene rubber for the manufacturing of tires, tire carcasses, sidewalls, under-treads, conveyor belts, sportswear and automotive components. It exhibits various favorable properties, such as low vinyl content, resilience and high elasticity and resistance to abrasion and low temperatures. It is also used as an additive to enhance the toughness and impact resistance of rubber-based products. As a result, polybutadiene rubber finds extensive applications for polymer modification, chemical and industrial rubber manufacturing.

Polybutadiene Rubber Market Trends:

Significant growth in the automotive industry across the globe is one of the key factors creating a positive outlook for the market. Polybutadiene rubber is widely used in the manufacturing of high-quality components in luxury and semi utility vehicles (SUVs) to provide enhanced comfort to the user. Moreover, the increasing demand for chemical-resistant materials and advanced rubbers is providing a thrust to the market growth. Liquid polybutadiene rubber is widely used for the manufacturing of elastomers, hoses, belts, rubber bands, shoes, coatings and adhesives. In line with this, the rising requirement for low-cost and durable substitutes for natural rubber with superior chemical and physical properties is also contributing to the growth of the market. Additionally, various product innovations, such as the utilization of bio feedstock and other natural resources for the manufacturing of synthetic rubber, are favoring the market growth. Other factors, including rising expenditure capacities of the consumers, along with rapid industrialization, especially in the developing economies, are anticipated to drive the market toward growth.
