Butyl rubber adhesives have a wide range of applications and broad industry development prospects.

Butyl rubber adhesive, also known as isobutyl rubber adhesive, refers to an adhesive made from butyl rubber as raw material, adding appropriate amounts of additives and solvents, and utilizing interfacial adhesion and cohesion. Butyl rubber adhesive has the advantages of antioxidant, cold resistance, and good elasticity, and has broad application prospects in automobile manufacturing, building materials, shipbuilding, papermaking and other fields.

The upstream of the butyl rubber adhesive industry chain supplies raw materials, with butyl rubber as its main raw material. Butyl rubber is a subdivided product of synthetic rubber. It is copolymerized from a small amount of isoprene and isobutylene. It has the advantages of chemical resistance, good electrical insulation performance, aging resistance, heat resistance, etc. It is widely used in the manufacture of automobile tires and waterproof materials. , sealing gaskets and other products. my country is the world’s largest butyl rubber producer. Driven by technological upgrading, my country’s butyl rubber production capacity has rapidly expanded and output has continued to grow, which provides favorable conditions for the development of the butyl rubber adhesive industry.

The lower reaches of the butyl rubber adhesive industry chain are application areas, including automobile manufacturing, building materials, shipbuilding, papermaking, etc. In the field of automobile manufacturing, butyl rubber adhesives are widely used in automobile window glass, automobile interior decoration and other products; in the field of building materials, butyl rubber adhesives can be used for floor laying, roof waterproofing, etc. According to the “2023-2028 China Butyl Rubber Adhesive Industry Market In-depth Research and Development Prospects Forecast Report released by the Industrial Research Center ” shows that driven by downstream demand, my country’s butyl rubber adhesive market continues to expand, reaching US$160 million in 2022.

In the global market, butyl rubber adhesive production capacity is mainly concentrated in European and American countries. Major global butyl rubber adhesive manufacturers include 3M Company of the United States, H.B. Fuller Company of the United States, Dow Corning of the United States, Bostik of France, Henkel of Germany, etc. Germany’s Henkel is the world’s largest butyl rubber adhesive manufacturer, accounting for nearly 15% of the market. The company’s products are widely used in the field of building materials.

In the local market, my country’s butyl rubber adhesive market is dominated by small and medium-sized enterprises, and the industry concentration is low. Dongguan Yihe Chemical Co., Ltd., Xiamen Haiyan Rubber and Plastic Products Co., Ltd., Tongcheng New Materials Group Co., Ltd., and Shandong Lianke Technology Co., Ltd. are the main manufacturers of butyl rubber adhesives in my country. In recent years, Chinese companies have continued to increase technological innovation in butyl rubber adhesives to further improve product quality.

Industry analysts said that butyl rubber adhesives have excellent performance and are widely used in many fields. With the gradual release of market demand, the industry The development prospects will continue to improve. In recent years, my country’s butyl rubber adhesive industry has accelerated its development, benefiting from sufficient supply of raw materials and increasing technological maturity. It is expected that in the coming period, with the innovation of production technology by local enterprises, the concentration of my country’s butyl rubber adhesive industry will further increase.
