Growth of the global pharmaceutical industry is expected to drive the butyl rubber market demand, owing to rising consumption of butyl rubber in making medical products such as stoppers & seals, blood collection tubes, and infusion containers. The demand for butyl rubber in tire manufacturing is significantly rising over the past few years, as it helps in maintaining the overall tire pressure. This performance feature of butyl rubber makes it a favorable rubber among other synthetic rubbers. However, presence of low cost conventional rubber substitutes such as styrene butadiene rubber (SBR) may hamper the market growth in the coming years.
