Polyisobutylene Market 2028: Exploring Europe’s Construction Boom
The global polyisobutylene (PIB) market was valued at USD 1.87 billion in 2020 and is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.0% from 2021 to 2028. This growth is primarily driven by the wide range of applications of polyisobutylene, including its use in adhesives, sealants, and rubber components in the automotive sector, as well as in fuel and lubricant additives. The rising popularity of tubeless tires in the automotive industry, due to their ease of replacement and lower maintenance requirements, has further supported this market expansion. Polyisobutylene plays a critical role in the production of tubeless tires, where it is used for the inner liners because of its excellent barrier properties, particularly its ability to resist oxygen permeability. This makes it an ideal material for this purpose. In addition, PIB is known for its low moisture and gas permeability, along with exceptional electrical insulation properties, which enhance its versatility across v...
