Global Styrene Butadiene Rubber (SBR) Market 2019: Kumho Petrochemical, Trinseo, JSR Corporation, Synthos S.A

摘要

Styrene Butadiene Rubber (SBR) is the most widely used synthetic rubber in adhesives & sealants and is produced from a copolymer of styrene and butadiene. Compared to natural rubber, SBR has better processability, heat aging, and abrasion resistance but is inferior in terms of elongation, hot tear strength, hysteresis, resilience and tensile strength. SBR adhesives show excellent heat, abrasion and crack resistance and better ageing characteristics than natural rubber adhesives. In adhesives and sealants industry, SBR has mostly used for bonding tufted carpets and in pressure sensitive adhesives.
