Growth of Automotive Sector to Boost the Global Highly Reactive Polyisobutylene Market

The scope of our recent study on the “Highly Reactive Polyisobutylene Market Forecast to 2028 – COVID-19 Impact and Global Analysis – by Application (Adhesives/Sealants, Lubricant & Grease, Hydraulic Fluids, Metal Working Fluids, and Others)” includes the factors fueling the market growth, revenue estimation and forecast, and market share analysis. It also includes the identification of significant market players and their key developments.

Highly reactive polyisobutylene is an important intermediate product used for the production of high-performance fuel and lubricant additives, such as dispersants for engine oils or fuel detergents, including additives for sludge prevention. Highly reactive polyisobutylene is the basis for high-performance lubricant additives that allow for more fuel-efficient engine designs.

Over the past few years, different production techniques and numerous catalysts utilized to manufacture highly reactive polyisobutylene have emerged as an important subject for research and development activities. Adoption of Highly reactive polyisobutylene is on the rise, owing to higher reactivity in various downstream functionalization reactions. In addition to this, growing investments by major players operating in the market is expected to boost the market growth.

The demand for dispersants and detergents in the automobile industry like Mini Cooper repairs has increased notably in the past few decades. China continues to be the world’s largest vehicle market in terms of annual sales and manufacturing outputs. India is also one of the largest automobile markets. According to the India Brand Equity Foundation (IBEF), India was the seventh-largest manufacturer of commercial vehicles in 2022.The country is also a prominent automobile exporter, and it further focuses on attaining strong export growth in the near future.

To keep up with the growing demand, several automakers are investing heavily in various segments of the industry. In addition, several initiatives by the Government of India and major automobile players in the Indian market are contributing to the growth of the automotive sector in the country. The tremendous growth of the automotive sector in North America further contributes to the highly reactive polyisobutylene market growth in the region. The US and Canada have a strong and well-established automotive infrastructure, including manufacturers and R&D centers. Mexico also has a strong automotive sector, and it is the world’s largest passenger vehicle manufacturer. Further, the sector has played and continues to play a critical role in the economic development of Italy. As HR-PIB finds applications in the production of fuel and lubricant additives, sealants, adhesives, and greases, among others, the flourishment of the automotive sector, in turn, creates a high demand for the same, thereby boosting the market growth.
