The polybutadiene market size is expected to grow from USD 10.8 billion in 2019 to USD 13.8 billion by 2024, at a CAGR of 5.1% during the forecast period. The polybutadiene market is driven by tire, polymer modification, and industrial rubber manufacturing industries. However, fluctuating raw material prices can hinder the growth of the market.
Emerging economies such as China, India, Indonesia, and Thailand are experiencing high demand for polybutadiene. Increasing disposable income, huge consumer base, rising urban population, low labour costs, and easy availability of raw materials are attracting global automobile manufacturers to shift their production facilities to the region, thus, creating a high demand for polybutadiene in this region.
