Report forecast the global SBC and its derivatives market to grow at a
CAGR of 4.99% over the period 2014-2019.
SBC and its derivatives are thermoplastic elastomers with rubber-like
properties. Owing to their unique characteristics, such as biodegradability,
low drug absorption, high resilience, toughness, optical clarity, and process
stability, along with their ability to be processed as thermoplastic materials
while behaving like filled vulcanized elastomers, they are used in large number
of applications in industrial and commercial sectors. They are used for bitumen
and asphalt modification in paving and roofing applications in the construction
industry and to reduce solution viscosity in the elastomeric phase in the production
processes in the adhesives, sealants, and coatings industry. Apart from the
aforementioned, they also find extensive usage in the manufacturing of footwear
and advanced materials.
