Another factor that is driving the growth of the Synthetic Rubber Market is the increasing construction activities around the world. Construction activity is expected to grow by 3.9% in the coming years, which will lead to an increased demand for Synthetic Rubber as it is used in construction products such as pipes and sealants. Lastly, the increasing demand for consumer electronics is also driving the growth of the Synthetic Rubber Market. Consumer electronics such as smartphones and tablets use Synthetic Rubber in their manufacturing process. According to a recent analysis by International Data Corporation (IDC) of mobile device sales in the worldwide market, global smartphone sales are forecasted to reach 1.5 billion units in 2022, which lead to an increased demand for Synthetic Rubber.
The market for Synthetic Rubber is constrained by several issues, including the liability of the costs of the raw materials, the stringency of the environmental rules, and the rivalry from the market for natural rubber. Prices of Synthetic Rubbers are directly influenced by the erratic behavior of the markets for crude oil and natural gas, which are the two primary feedstocks used in the production of Synthetic Rubbers. In addition, environmental rules concerning the utilization of Synthetic Rubbers are becoming increasingly stringent in developed countries. This is the case in developed countries. The expansion of the market for Synthetic Rubber is being hampered as a result of this. Furthermore, natural rubber possesses superior qualities to those Synthetic Rubber in several applications; as a result, the market share of Synthetic Rubber is being held back.
Approach for the future
The future of Synthetic Rubber looks promising. This growth can be attributed to the increasing demand for automobiles and other rubber products, as well as the growing awareness of the benefits of Synthetic Rubber over natural rubber. As the demand for Synthetic Rubber grows, so does the need for new and innovative ways to produce it. One such innovation is the use of renewable resources, such as plant-based oils, to create Synthetic Rubber. This approach not only reduces dependence on fossil fuels but also has the potential to be more cost-effective in the long run. This is just one example of the many exciting approaches that are being developed for the future of Synthetic Rubber production. With continued research and development, there is no doubt that this market will continue to grow and thrive in the years to come.
Top Market Trends
Market Segmentation
The Global Synthetic Rubber Market is segmented based
On Form Type, Type, End-Use Industry,
Region
Based on Form Type
The market for Solid Synthetic Rubber is expected to grow at a higher rate than that of the liquid Synthetic Rubber segment during the forecast period. This is due to the increasing demand for tires, hoses, and other applications that use solid Synthetic Rubber. Moreover, increased focus on green technology and stringent regulations about environmental issues are expected to drive the growth of the solid Synthetic Rubber Market. The Solid form type segment is further sub-segmented into black and non-black. The Liquid form type segment is further sub-segmented into latex and non-latex. The Liquid-form type segment is expected to grow at a moderate rate during the forecast period. The growth of this segment can be attributed to the growing demand for adhesives, sealants, and coatings from various end-use industries.
Based on Type
The Acrylic Rubber segment is expected to exhibit the highest growth rate during the forecast period owing to its wide application range in the automotive and engineering industries. Butadiene rubber has emerged as the most popular type of Synthetic Rubber in recent years owing to its excellent physical properties such as high-temperature resistance and low torque resistance. However, increasing environmental concerns are expected to restrain the growth of this type of Synthetic Rubber in the coming years. The styrene-butadiene rubber segment is also anticipated to witness robust growth owing to increasing demand for this type of Synthetic Rubber in the aerospace and manufacturing sectors. However, the butyl rubber segment is projected to witness modest growth due to stringent environmental regulations in various markets. EPDM is the most commonly used type of Synthetic Rubber owing to its high performance and versatility. FKM/Viton is projected to be the fastest-growing type of Synthetic Rubber due to its improved resistance against oils & chemicals. IR is projected to be the most popular type of Synthetic Rubber among end consumers owing to its good heat resistance and low-friction properties.
