Market Synopsis
Carbon black offers numerous advantages, including a rise in tires’ tread wear as well as rolling resistance; high absorption of UV light, and converting it to heat, making plastics highly resistant to UV radiation. It imparts pigmentation, thermal conductivity, and UV protection to coatings, which induces significant market growth.
Market Drivers:
Carbon black’s most extensive use is in tire as well as non-tire rubber products, acting as a shock absorbent and reinforcing agent. The product is added in various parts of the tire including carcasses, inner-liners, treads, sidewalls, and rubber products like belts, air springs, gaskets, hoses, wiper blades, diaphragm and bushings. Carbon black helps elevate the lifespan of the tire as it resists heat from the belt and tread area. As a result, the stellar growth of the rubber and tire industries can be favorable for the carbon black industry in the coming years.
The tire industry has been expanding at a significant pace worldwide owing to the escalating automotive sales. A number of tire manufacturers are striving to set up new units close to automobile manufacturing centers, while also adopting modern technologies in production, which can benefit the global industry over the next few years.
Some of the fastest emerging nations in Asia Pacific like India, South Korea and China are witnessing a rapid surge in automotive production, which also fosters the demand for tires and rubber. The industrial growth in the region is the result of rising investments, while the expansion of the construction industry could also present a number of lucrative opportunities to the key firms in the global industry.
