Market Overview
Isoprene Market is set to perceive substantial growth by 2025, expanding at an impressive growth rate during the forecast period (2017-2025).
Growth Factors and Key Restraints
Increasing Applications in Tires and Industrial Rubber to Bolster Market Growth
The worldwide isoprene market growth is predominantly fueled by the expanding end-use applications in making tires, industrial rubber and adhesives. The elevated use of isoprene to make synthetic rubber can be attributed to its numerous performance characteristics, like tremendous flexibility that is similar to natural rubber, the ability to confer outstanding durability to the end products and strength without any odor. Backed by these attractive properties, isoprene finds significant applications when it comes to making different automotive parts other than tires, like engine mounting, fuel hose, suspension bush, mud flap, floor mats and exhaust rubber hangers. This factor has been responsible for the lucrative market growth in the past couple of years. A noteworthy trend that has been making rounds in the global isoprene market is in the form of rapid strides that is being witnessed by the automotive industry in a number of developing economies, especially Asia Pacific, providing a substantial thrust to the market position. The speedy rate of urbanization in these emerging regions will foster the demand for SUVs and sedans, catalyzing the demand for isoprene in diverse end-use applications.
Booming Automotive Industry in Developing Nations Creating Lucrative Avenues
Other than the increasing applications that are rubber-based, the global isoprene market also benefits copiously from its rising use for making medical equipment as well as footwear. But many strict regulations that have been imposed on the rubber industry for the use of natural rubber, will most likely stagnate the demand for isoprene. However, the market position of isoprene is poised to elevate in the coming years, as a result of the expanding automotive industry coupled with the increasing popularity of low-rolling resistance tires in many parts of the world. Moreover, continuous advancements in production technologies will be instrumental in the market growth to a large extent.
