Liquid Polybutadiene Market – Market Overview

Liquid polybutadiene is generally known as synthetic rubber, produced by polymerization of butadiene using anionic polymerization technique. It is colorless and transparent chemical compound which consists of carbon and hydrogen with excellent chemical resistance. Due to low low coefficient of friction and mechanical strength it is used in tire manufacturing. Other superior properties such as high activity of curing and affinity towards olefins resins, it can be used in adhesives, sealants and elastomers. Among the aforementioned applications, the prominent application of liquid polybutadiene is in tire manufacturing.

The protuberant factors driving the market growth are increasing tire manufacturing coupled with growth of automotive and construction industry in emerging economies. Rising awareness of liquid polybutadiene in tire manufacturing due to high resistance to wear, maintain cool temperature, high resilience and low rolling resistance are further anticipated to drive product demand. Liquid polybutadiene is set to emerge as preferred choice over natural rubber and SBR (styrene-butadiene rubber) owing to excellent properties and innovative application scope. Furthermore, increasing inculcation of liquid polybutadiene in construction application such as coating, sealants and adhesives to have positive influence market. However, volatile in raw material prices are likely to hinder the market growth.

Global Liquid Polybutadiene market is projected to reach USD 3,776.5 million by 2023 with a CAGR of 4.85% during forecast period 2017-2023. According to MRFR analysis, liquid polybutadiene market is segmented as application and end use industry. Among application, tire manufacturing is leading followed by industrial rubber and polymer modification. Tire manufacturing accounts for more than 33% of the market share and estimated to grow at CAGR of 5.31% during the assessment period. They are also used in various rubber goods other than tires such as conveyor belts, hoses and gaskets. Among all the end use industry, consumption of liquid polybutadiene in the transportation industry was estimated to be on the higher end, owing to the versatile applications like tire, rubber components, protection films and adhesives among others.

The Asia Pacific region holds growth potential for liquid polybutadiene market and is slated to register a CAGR of 5.34% to reach USD 1,483.2 million by 2023 owing to the rapid industrialization in the region along with presence of considerable number of producers coupled with cheap labor cost and growing exports. Middle East & Africa is fastest growing market and anticipated to remain the same over the forecast period. Growing construction activities such as road and tunnel development projects are further likely to augment the regional demand.
