Il mercato globale della gomma nitrile-butadiene (NBR) ha raggiunto i 2,10 miliardi di dollari nel 2020 e si prevede che crescerà fino a 3,48 miliardi di dollari entro il 2029, con un tasso di crescita annuale composto (CAGR) del 5,90%.
Si prevede che l'ampia applicazione della gomma nitrilica butadiene (NBR) nei settori automobilistico e dei trasporti, nonché il suo utilizzo in tubi flessibili e guarnizioni nell'industria petrolifera e del gas , stimoleranno la domanda di NBR. Tuttavia, le fluttuazioni nei prezzi dell'acrilonitrile e del butadiene, le principali materie prime per NBR, rappresentano una sfida per il mercato. Inoltre, il mercato NBR è caratterizzato da un'intensa concorrenza, con numerosi produttori che perseguono iniziative strategiche come l'espansione della produzione, il lancio di nuovi prodotti e fusioni e acquisizioni. Ad esempio, a maggio 2023, ARLANXEO ha annunciato l'inizio della costruzione del suo impianto di produzione di gomma sintetica a Jubail, in Arabia Saudita, con una capacità produttiva annuale di 140 kilotonnellate.
L'NBR trova ampio utilizzo nel settore automobilistico, in particolare in O-ring, cinghie e cavi, con la sua applicazione principale nei battistrada e nei fianchi degli pneumatici grazie alla sua favorevole resistenza all'abrasione e alla bassa resistenza al rotolamento, garantendo così elevate prestazioni. Inoltre, l'NBR funge da alternativa conveniente alla gomma naturale con proprietà migliorate. Di conseguenza, la crescita del mercato dell'NBR è strettamente legata agli sviluppi all'interno dell'industria automobilistica.
La rapida crescita osservata in settori quali automotive, aeronautica, edilizia, medicina e alimenti e bevande nella regione Asia-Pacifico (APAC) è degna di nota. Le industrie manifatturiere nazionali in paesi come Cina, Giappone e Corea del Sud hanno assistito a una significativa espansione nell'ultimo decennio e si prevede che manterranno questa traiettoria in futuro. Economie come Cina e India, caratterizzate da una rapida crescita, stanno attraendo investimenti sostanziali da entità nazionali e internazionali. I produttori nazionali di prodotti NBR, compresi quelli che producono guanti, tubi flessibili e cinture, stanno aumentando le loro capacità per soddisfare la crescente domanda nazionale e globale. In particolare, i produttori di guanti malesi stanno espandendo le capacità produttive per capitalizzare la crescente domanda di guanti NBR.
The Nitrile Butadiene Rubber (NBR) market is segmented by Product, and end user Industry
On the basis of Product, global Nitrile Butadiene Rubber (NBR) market is segmented into Hoses, Cables, Belts, Molded & Extruded Products, Seals & O-rings, Rubber Compounds, Adhesives & Sealants. the seals and O-rings category dominated the market for nitrile butadiene rubber. They're found in a variety of vehicle components, including engines, doors, batteries, power steering systems, and other applications. In pressure-sensitive applications such as pumps, cylinders, hydraulic motors, and so on, seals and O-rings assist prevent liquid or gas loss. The increasing usage of compressed natural gas and electric energy-powered cars is predicted to boost seal and O-ring consumption, boosting the nitrile butadiene rubber.
Transmission belts made of nitrile butadiene rubber are widely utilized in the food processing, automotive, mining, and other industries. In emerging nations, rising urbanization, manufacturing process automation, and industrialization are predicted to stimulate demand for conveyor belts, elevator belts, and transmission belts in the aforementioned end-use industries. The market for nitrile butadiene rubber is expected to rise as a result of this.
On the basis of end user Industry, global Nitrile Butadiene Rubber (NBR) market is segmented into Automotive, Mechanical Engineering, Oil & Gas, Metallurgy & Mining, Construction, Medical, Others. The market for nitrile butadiene rubber was controlled by the automotive end-use category. The need for large-sized seals used in batteries is likely to be driven by the increasing electric vehicle industry in developing nations. Because batteries are vital components in electric cars, seals must be chemical and abrasion resistant, which plays an important role in seal design and is projected to affect the nitrile butadiene rubber market throughout the projection period.
The Key Players in Nitrile Butadiene Rubber (NBR) Market are ARLANXEO, Zeon Chemicals L.P., NITRIFLEX, SIBUR, PetroChina Company Limited, Dynasol Group, Synthos S.A., KUMHO PETROCHEMICAL, LG Chem, Versalis S.p.A., JSR Corporation, AirBoss of America.
Industry News:
In May 2021, Ace Elastomer, Inc. was purchased by AirBoss of America for USD 42.5 million in cash. This purchase is projected to drive AirBoss of America into a market-leading position in specialty compounding, allowing the company to access consumers in the Midwest and South of the United States.
June 30, 2021-Zeon Chemicals L.P. (“ZEON”) has filed an antidumping petition with the U.S. Department of Commerce and the U.S. International Trade Commission to stop the dumping of acrylonitrile butadiene rubber or nitrile rubber (“NBR”) into the United States from France, Mexico, and South Korea.
Geographically, Nitrile Butadiene Rubber (NBR) market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and Rest of the world.
Asia Pacific led the nitrile butadiene rubber market, accounting for more than 55.0 percent of total revenue. The increased demand for nitrile butadiene rubber in India, China, and ASEAN nations is principally driven by the strong demand from bulk manufacturing of molded and extruded polymer goods and automobile components. The Indian cabinet authorized a USD 3.5 billion incentive program in September 2021 to stimulate the manufacture of fuel-cell and battery-electric automobiles and encourage drone manufacturing. Over the projection period, these incentive schemes are likely to fuel the Indian automotive market and have an impact on the NBR market.
Europe has a thriving medical industry as well as a big number of chemical processing plants. Due to the rising automotive, medical, and other end-use sectors in the region, there has been a considerable increase in demand for medical and industrial gloves in recent years. Because of its vast mineral deposits and widespread usage of electrical and electronic products, Africa's mining sector has surged. Hydraulic mechanisms are required for drilling and excavation equipment to function properly. Hydraulic systems necessitate the use of hoses, seals, gaskets, and O-rings to ensure that fluid pressure is transferred effectively and that it is not lost, leading in a rise in demand for nitrile butadiene rubber.
