Butadiene Market In Asia Pacific To 2020

1. Butadiene Market In Asia Pacific To 2020 - Asia Pacific Rubber Industry Drives The Global Demand

2. The Asia-Pacific Butadiene Demand is Expected to Grow Strongly in the Forecast Period The effect of global economic slowdown had slightly impacted butadiene demand in the Asia-Pacific region. This is mostly because the global automobile industry suffered a setback. However, as the economies recover from the recession, the exports of industrial products from the countries of Asia-Pacific will also grow. This gives rise to the growth in butadiene demand in the region. Asia-Pacific is currently a net importer of butadiene and the trend is expected to continue in the forecast period. The Asia-Pacific butadiene demand is expected to grow at Compounded Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 5.5% from 2009 to 2020. China is the Largest Consumer of Butadiene in the Asia-Pacific Region Chinese butadiene demand has grown at rate due to the rapid growth in its manufacturing industry and automobile market. China is the fastest growing economy in the world and its manufacturing industry is emerging as one of the biggest in the world. The export market of the country for rubber products has also grown rapidly. The country’s butadiene demand is expected to grow at the world’s highest CAGR of around 8% in the forecast period. Korea is the second largest consumer and holds a share of 25.8% in the region’s butadiene demand. Japan stands third in butadiene consumption with a demand share of 19.6% in Asia-Pacific. Taiwan holds a share of 12.8% in the region’s butadiene demand. India accounts for a share of 3% while Thailand accounts for a share of 2.8% of the Asia-Pacific butadiene demand.

3. Styrene Butadiene Rubber and Polybutadiene are the Major End Uses of Butadiene in Asia-Pacific The largest use of butadiene is in the production of Styrene Butadiene Rubber (SBR) which is used to manufacture automobile tires. SBR is also used in adhesives, sealants, coatings and some other rubber articles such as shoe soles. Butadiene is also used to make Butadiene Rubber (BR) and polymerized to polybutadiene rubber. SBR accounts for a 30.1% share of the Asia-Pacific’s butadiene demand and polybutadiene accounts for a share of 28.1%. Other polymers made from butadiene include Styrene-Butadiene (SB) copolymer latex, which is used in paper coatings, carpet back coatings, foam mattresses and adhesives. Styrene butadiene latex accounts for 12% of the Asia-Pacific butadiene demand.
