Liquid Polybutadiene Market: Overview
- Liquid polybutadiene is transparent, odorless, low viscous, and colorless synthetic rubber that is used to manufacture tires, belts, hoses, rubber goods, tapes, shoes, adhesives, coatings, etc.
- Increase in demand for liquid polybutadiene in manufacture of tires is expected to drive the liquid polybutadiene market during the forecast period. Rise in usage of liquid polybutadiene in the transportation sector is anticipated to create lucrative opportunities for the liquid polybutadiene market.
Key Drivers of Liquid Polybutadiene Market
- Rise in demand for advanced rubber materials and chemical resistant materials is anticipated to boost the global liquid polybutadiene market
- Increase in usage of synthetic rubber in automotive tire manufacturing and other manufacturing industries in developing countries is also fueling the demand for liquid polybutadiene. Rise in demand for liquid polybutadiene in rubber manufacturing is driving the global liquid polybutadiene market. Liquid polybutadiene is widely used for manufacturing tires in the automotive industry due to various factors such as ability to control grip, high resistance to wear & tear, superior performance, high fuel efficiency, and long shelf life.
- Manufacturers of liquid polybutadiene are focusing on increasing the awareness about their product portfolio. This is anticipated to help boost the demand for liquid polybutadiene across the globe.
- Rise in demand for automotive vehicles, including passenger and commercial vehicles, is projected to augment the demand for tires. As a result, demand for liquid polybutadiene is likely to increase among tire manufacturers.
- Demand for synthetic rubber is increasing in various applications such as tire manufacturing and rubber compounding. Rise in demand for synthetic rubber has encouraged manufacturers to expand their production capacities. SIBUR International is investing significantly in increasing the production capacity (from 13,000 metric tons per year to 48,000 metric tons per year) of its polybutadiene rubber at its Voronezh facility. Such production capacity expansion by companies to cater to the rising demand for liquid polybutadiene is expected to fuel the liquid polybutadiene market.
