Nitrile butadiene rubber (NBR) is also called Buna-N and nitrile rubber and is formed by the copolymerization of butadiene and acrylonitrile (ACN). It exhibits excellent chemical and physical properties. It is resistance to oils, chemicals, fuel, puncture, abrasion, and fatigue. Additionally, the ability of NBR to survive in the wide temperature ranges from -40°C to +120°C makes it an ideal choice for aerospace and automobile applications. Furthermore, owing to its hardness and stiffness, it is used as an ideal material in the nuclear industry. NBR finds its applications in adhesives, PVC modification, friction materials, and gaskets.
The rising demand for cross-linked NBR powder in the PVC modification applications will surge the growth for nitrile butadiene rubber powder market. Cross-linked NBR powder is used to modify the resins including phenolic resins and acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS). It offers impact resistance and flexibility in thermoplastic formulations. The linear NBR powder is utilized in several applications such as seals, gaskets, and hoses. Moreover, in the automobile application, the NBR powder is utilized in friction materials, interior moldings, weather strips, and auto interior skins. Whereas, the rising need for friction materials owing to the increasing demand for railway brake blocks, disc pads, clutch facings, and brake linings, will fuel the growth in the automotive application. Hence, the growing demand for these applications will propel the demand for NBR powder.
