Description

Elastomers are unstructured elastic polymers possessing viscoelasticity, i.e., they exhibit both viscosity and elasticity at the same time. It is an amorphous polymer which has a glass transition temperature below ambient temperature, which means it is soft and rubbery and helps in considerable movement. They exhibit low intermolecular strength, high strain of failure, and lower Young’s modulus when compared to other materials.

According to research, the global automotive elastomers market is projected to grow at a significant CAGR during the forecast period. Increasing demand for both passenger and commercial vehicles is expected to drive the global market growth. Stringent emission regulations and resulting demand for light-weight materials is expected to drive the market growth. The global automotive elastomers market has been classified on the basis of type, application, and vehicle type. By type, the thermoset elastomers (TSE) segment was the largest and was valued at USD 18,776.8 million in 2017, owing to TSE’s versatility and growing demand for highly durable and thermally resistant automotive rubber. However, the thermoplastic elastomers (TPE) segment is estimated to grow at the highest CAGR of 5.51% in the following years due to its increasing application in interior components for aesthetic appeal. Based on application, the tire segment accounted for the largest market share of 61.39% in 2017 due to the growing consumption of natural and synthetic elastomers for tire manufacturing. The interior components segment is projected to register the highest CAGR of 5.61% during the forecast period owing to the growing demand for airbags, hoses, and seals, among others. On the basis of vehicle type, the passenger vehicles segment held the largest market share in 2017. Additionally, it is projected to grow at the highest CAGR of 5.46% in the following years due to the growing demand for the product from passenger cars to increase fuel efficiency by reducing weight. Ongoing research to innovate different grades of automotive elastomers is expected to provide lucrative opportunities to the market players.

However, fluctuating raw material prices is expected to hamper the automotive elastomers market growth.

The global market for automotive elastomers is projected to reach USD 45,618.2 million by 2023 and is anticipated to grow at a healthy CAGR of 5.41% during the forecast period.
