The report highlights that the demand for specialty forms of NBR will continue to grow with its increased application across several end-use industries. NBR powder is also widely used in the automobile industry for the manufacture of oil/fuel hoses and seals, and in frictional materials as a binder. The escalating demand for automobile parts such as dashboards, brake pads, kick panels, and kick lining will significantly bolster the demand for NBR powder in the global market. Additionally, expansion of the two-wheeler market in emerging economies will also contribute to the growing demand for NBR powder in the global market over the next couple of years. However, the availability of potential substitutes such as thermoplastic olefins and thermoplastic elastomers in the segment of PVC modification could inhibit the growing demand for NBR powder.

The report has segmented the global market for NBR into two major types, namely linear and cross-linked or pre-cross-linked. According to the report, the global market for NBR is dominated by the latter segment, which is used in both frictional materials and resin modification alike. The linear NBR powder, on the other hand, is mostly demanded for the manufacture of gaskets and seals. The findings of the report indicate significant growth in the demand for both segments over the forecast period. The cross-linked NBR segment is projected to register exponential growth on the basis of volume. The segment is anticipated to grow at a 5.2% CAGR between 2013 and 2019.
