The global polybutadiene market is estimated to be valued at USD 10.8 billion in 2019 and is projected to reach USD 13.8 billion by 2024, at a CAGR of 5.1% during the forecast period. The demand for polybutadiene in the automotive industry for manufacturing tires is expected to be driven by the growing automotive sales, mainly in the Asian countries such as China and India.

Emerging economies such as China, India, Indonesia, and Thailand are experiencing high demand for polybutadiene. Increasing disposable income, huge consumer base, rising urban population, low labour costs, and easy availability of raw materials are attracting global automobile manufacturers to shift their production facilities to the region, thus, creating a high demand for polybutadiene in this region.
