Synthetic Rubber Market Analysis by Application and Competitive Insights to 2021
Global
synthetic rubber market has the largest end-user in the tires segment. It
accounts for more than 50% share of the market revenue. It is projected to be
the fastest growing segment in global synthetic rubber market. Synthetic
rubbers are primarily considered as a substitute to the natural rubbers. Sturdy
development of synthetic rubbers in the global rubber market can be accredited
to numerous interrelated factors. Major reason behind the shift of consumers
from natural rubber market to synthetic rubber market was the high instability
in prices of natural rubber. Geographical limitations on rubber plantations,
growing demand for rubber all over the world, varying supply caused by the
fluctuations in obtaining raw materials and long transport distances led to
unpredictable prices of the natural rubber market. Thus, the demand for
synthetic rubber has escalated due to the changing dynamics of the global
rubber market. This has helped industrial rubber consumer to bring about higher
profit margin and cost benefits.

Synthetic
rubber market has the biggest product segment in Styrene Butadiene Rubber
(SBR). It accounted for over 30% of the shares. SBR is a copolymer made up of
styrene and butadiene in the ratio of 3:1 by weight. It provides improved
process ability, resistance to abrasion and heat aging. SBR, blended with
natural rubber, is predominantly used in the production of car tires. Few of
the other areas where SBR is utilized include gaskets, floor tiles, adhesives, conveyor
belts, hoses and footwear. Nitrile Butadiene Rubber (NBR) has been projected to
be the most rapidly emerging product segment of global synthetic rubber market
over the forecast period. Growth of nitrile butadiene rubber is largely
attributed to the growing demand for NBR in automotive applications.
Global synthetic rubber market has witnessed a strong growth rate in
the recent past owing to the growing demand for tires, particularly green
tires. Factors such as excellent performance of the tires and tire labeling
regulations may favorably impact market growth. It will be driven by the
growing automotive industry, growth in emerging economies and diminishing
prices of crude oil. In the recent past, demand for synthetic rubber has
witnessed a significant rise in manufacturing both commercial vehicles and
cars.
Synthetic
rubber is widely used in the footwear industry around the globe. This has led
to a high demand for SBR synthetic rubber type which is used in the production
of car tires in the automotive industry. Hence, expansion in the footwear
market will also provide a helping hand to the global synthetic rubber market.
Rise of bio-based feedstock presenting a high market opportunity is expected to
drive the demand for synthetic rubber market further. The key players in the
global synthetic rubber market will also benefit from it. The proportionate
capacity of synthetic rubber has increased more than their relative demand
which is expected to drive the market for synthetic rubber.
However,
few factors may restrain the growth of the market. The surplus supply created
by the regular additions to the capacity is projected to negatively impact the
market. Another factor that may obstruct the market growth is the increasing
substitution of synthetic rubber by natural rubber. There has been a decrease
in the prices of natural rubber which is hampering the growth of global
synthetic rubber market. Further to this, factors such as depletion of fossil
fuels, growing concerns regarding the environment and regulatory issues may
pose challenges to the market growth over the forecast period.
Asia
Pacific synthetic rubber market is expected to witness the fastest growth over
the next seven years. Growing Chinese manufacturing industry is projected to
produce an enormous number of footwear and tire units which will lead to the
highest growth rate for Asia Pacific. The U.S., India, Russia and Japan are
expected to experience a high growth in the global synthetic rubber market.
Four key players functioning in global synthetic rubber market include
Exxon Mobil Corp (ExxonMobil), Lanxess AG, Kumho Petrochemical Co. and Good
Year. The other major industry participants include DuPont, Dynasol Elastomers,
China National Petroleum Corporation (CNPC), China Petroleum &Chemical
Corporation, The Dow Chemical Company, TSRC Corporation, Sumitomo Chemical Co.
Ltd., DSM Elastomers, Sinopec, Showa Denko K.K, VersalisS.p.A. and Asahi Kasei
Corporation.
