Executive Summary

Styrene butadiene rubber (SBR) is a copolymer derived from styrene and butadiene. The first major synthetic rubber produced globally, SBR has better processability, heat aging and abrasion resistance ability in comparison to its counterparts. These features have widened the use of this elastomer in diverse industries like automobiles, footwear, civil construction, plastics, hospital materials and other crucial sectors. SBR and BR are most widely consumed variety of synthetic rubber as these are most commonly used in the production of tyres. SBR is of majorly two types Emulsion SBR (E-SBR) and Solution SBR (S-SBR), based on difference in their manufacturing process.

SBR is primarily used for manufacturing of automobile tyres. Rapid growth of automobile ownership particularly in developing countries, demand for high performance tyres and advent of tyre labeling legislation are driving the growth of Global Styrene Butadiene Rubber (SBR) Market. However, volatility in prices of main raw material like butadiene, overcapacity of SBR plants in certain economies, reduction in sales of automobile in eurozone, etc. are impeding industry's growth potential. Major trends prevailing in the global SBR industry are advent of green tyres, tyre labeling and large number of SBR producers ensuring butadiene supplies.
