Butadiene Derivatives Market is Boosted by Application in Automotive Tire Products through 2021-2030

Pune, India, October 2018/MRFR Press Release/- Market Research Future has published a half-cooked research report on the Global Butadiene Derivatives Market.

Butadiene is produced as a byproduct during the steam cracking process of ethylene and propylene. It is a highly reactive colorless gas, considered as a vital feedstock for manufacturing various chemicals and materials in automotive, paints, and textile end-use industries.

Based on product derivatives, the global butadiene derivatives market has been divided into styrene butadiene rubber (SBR), polybutadiene rubber (PBR), acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), styrene butadiene latex, adiponitrile, nitrile rubber (NR), and others. Among these, SBR is the leading segment during the forecast period owing to its rising applications in tires and rubber products. Due to its exceptional properties such as better processability and heat and abrasion resistance, it finds applications in gaskets and seals, footwear, and adhesives. These materials offer better grip and low rolling resistance, thus, resulting in reduced CO2 emissions and improved fuel economy. PBR is also expected to account for a significant market share as it offers superior wear resistance and low-temperature properties and finds application as an impact modifier for ABS resin and polystyrene.

On the basis of application, the global butadiene derivatives market has been segmented into tires and rubber products, injection-molded products, adhesives, paints and coatings, footwear, and others. The tires and rubber is projected to account for the largest market share during the assessment period owing to the surging demand for SBR and ABS in the automotive industry. Rapid industrialization and increasing number of automobiles propel the global market growth. Rubber products such as hoses, gaskets, and seals, shoe heels, and soles drive the growth of the global butadiene derivatives market. Adhesives and paints and coatings segments hold a moderate market share.
