Polyisobutylene Market Report and Forecast 2025-2034
Market Report I 2025-07-28 I 157 Pages I EMR Inc.
The global polyisobutylene market stood at a value of more than USD 3.09 Billion in 2024. The market is further expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.80% in the forecast period of 2025-2034 to attain a value of over USD 4.94 Billion by 2034.
Increased Demand for Highly Reactive Polyisobutylene to Aid the Market
The highly reactive PIB segment, based on type, accounts for a significant share in the market owing to the high viscosity and the ability of this type of polyisobutylene to deliver excellent results in lubricant thickening. In addition to this, the high reactivity of PIB, which is attributed to the terminal location of the double bonds, allows it to react more quickly, resulting in efficient and fast production of derivatives. This makes it ideal for the production of dispersants and detergents. Furthermore, the favourable properties of HR PIB, which include high degree elongation, moisture resistance, and good adhesion properties to multiple substrates makes it suitable for the production of sealants. Hence, this segment is anticipated to grow at a significant rate in the forecast period.
The Asia Pacific Accounts for a Significant Share in the Polyisobutylene Industry
The polyisobutylene industry in the Asia Pacific is driven by the expansion of large tube and tire manufacturing companies in the region owing to the thriving automotive sector in countries like India and China. In India, the increasing foreign direct investments (FDI) and the favourable government initiatives are likely to propel the demand for polyisobutylene in order to augment domestic manufacturing. The market in the region will further be aided by the rapid urbanisation and infrastructure development, which will generate the demand for polyisobutylene in various applications.
