Butyl Rubber Market (2017-2025): Driven by Increasing Use of Butyl Rubber for Manufacturing Bushes

DUBLIN, Dec. 8, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --

The "Butyl Rubber Market Analysis By Product (Regular Butyl, Bromo Butyl, Chloro Butyl), By Application (Tires & Lubes, Adhesives, Sealants, Stoppers, Industrial & Medical Gloves), By Region, And Segment Forecasts, 2014 - 2025" report has been added to Research and Markets' offering.

The global butyl rubber market is expected to reach USD 5.21 billion by 2025, according to a new report. Butyl rubber market is growing worldwide on account of superior product properties in comparison to natural rubber.

Regular butyl rubber exhibits properties such as resistance toward sunlight, ozone, gas permeability, and various polar solvents like alcohols and esters. The general temperature range of regular butyl rubber is about -34 to 110 degrees centigrade, which is anticipated to widen the application scope of the product.

Key players are expanding distribution channels to meet the rising demand and increasing their market share. Companies are expected to expand their footprint across Asia Pacific owing to rapid industrialization, which in turn is likely to provide a positive scope for the product growth.

Further key findings from the report suggest:

• Chloro butyl product segment is expected to witness the fastest growth of 7.9% from 2017 to 2025 on account of increasing focus toward better healthcare services

• Increasing use of butyl rubber for manufacturing bushes, which are used as a fixture between two moving parts is anticipated to drive product demand over the forecast period
