Market Dynamics

Introduction

Rubber additives are ingredients added to synthetic or natural rubber to produce desired properties. Rubber additives help to improve the durability of rubber and its resistance to heat, sunlight, mechanical stress, and other environmental factors. Sulfur, sulfonamide, carbon black, silica, amines, aliphatic esters, silanes, and other chemical compounds are among the rubber additives.

Covid-19 Impact

The pandemic outbreak shook the automotive industry to the core, affecting the growth of the rubber additives market. Due to supply chain disruption, production halts, and lockdowns across regions, the automotive industry recorded a massive decline in vehicle production in 2020. The impact of this has been documented throughout its supply chain, including the demand for rubber additives in 2020.

Market Drivers

Key factors driving the growth of the rubber additives market are:

  • The recovery of the automotive industry
  • Growing demand for rubber in tire manufacturing.
  • Increasing demand from other end-use industries.

Furthermore, rapid industrialization and urbanization, rising standards of living, and a surge in electric vehicle production will likely bolster the demand for rubber additives in the coming years.

Segments Analysis

By Product Type

The market is bifurcated into antidegradants, accelerators, activators, vulcanization inhibitors, plasticizers, and others. Antidegradants are estimated to remain the biggest demand generator for rubber additives in the foreseen future, due to the growing automotive industry. In addition, the increasing demand for antidegradants is fuelled by the expansion in their applications such as tire and industrial rubber products. Antidegradants are also used to improve the durability and resistance of rubber against the effects of sunlight, oxidation, heat, and mechanical stress. This is expected to further boost the demand for antidegradants over the assessment period.

By Application Type

The market is segmented into tires, conveyor belts, electric cables, and others. Tires are expected to be the largest application of rubber additives during 2022-2028, as rubber is the primary raw material used in the production of tires. The increasing use of rubber additives to improve tire performance and wear resistance has escalated the demand for rubber additives. As tires are one of the major applications in the rubber industry, rising initiatives in the tire industry by several countries are likely to drive market growth. One such example is the China Rubber Industry Association (CRIA), which has issued new industry development guidelines for the years 2021 to 2025.

Regional Analysis

Asia-Pacific is expected to remain the largest market for rubber additives over the forecast period. Furthermore, the region is expected to experience healthy market growth in the coming years. China, Japan, India, South Korea, and Thailand are Asia's preferred automobile manufacturing destinations. Increasing disposable income in the region, combined with an increasing motorization rate, ensures high automobile production in Asia-Pacific, which is likely to generate significant demand for rubber additives in the region.
