Hydrogenated Nitrile Butadiene Rubber (HNBR) - Global Market Outlook (2019-2027)

According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Hydrogenated Nitrile Butadiene Rubber (HNBR) Market is accounted for $9.84 billion in 2019 and is expected to reach $22.83 billion by 2027 growing at a CAGR of 11.1% during the forecast period. Some of the key factors driving the market growth are growing demand for seals and gaskets, rapid industrialization, and increasing offshore drilling activities. However, poor electrical and flame resistance of HNBR is the restraining factor for the growth of the market.

Hydrogenated Nitrile Butadiene Rubber is derived from nitrile rubber and is hydrogenated in a solution by using precious metal catalysts. When compared to nitrile rubber (NBR), it has better resistance to wear and tear. As HNBR is a chemically modified form of NBR, it has better chemical compatibility with fluids and gases. Also, it exhibits excellent resistance to mineral oil-based hydraulic fluids, diesel fuel, dilutes acids and bases, and animal and vegetable oils.

By end-user, the automotive segment is expected to grow at a significant market share during the forecast period as HNBR has excellent mechanical properties which are desirable for various automotive applications. Based on geography, Asia Pacific is anticipated to hold considerable market share during the forecast period due to large-scale production activities of rubber processing industries and the growing automobile industry in the region.
