Global Polybutene-1 Supply, Demand and Key Producers, 2024-2030

Description

The global Polybutene-1 market size is expected to reach $ 363.7 million by 2030, rising at a market growth of 2.5% CAGR during the forecast period (2024-2030).

LyondellBasell, Mitsui Chemicals, Ylem Technology and Shandong Hongye Chemical are the leaders of the Polybutene-1 industry, which take about 100% market share. Europe is the major region of the global market, which takes about 30% market share.

Polybutylene (polybutene-1, poly(1-butene), PB-1) is a polyolefin or saturated polymer with the chemical formula (C4H8)n. It should not be confused with polybutene, a low molecular weight oligomer.

Polybutylene is produced by polymerisation of 1-butene using supported Ziegler-Natta catalysts. PB-1 is a high molecular weight, linear, isotactic, and semi-crystalline polymer. PB-1 combines typical characteristics of conventional polyolefins with certain properties of technical polymers.

PB-1, when applied as a pure or reinforced resin, can replace materials like metal, rubber and engineering polymers. It is also used synergistically as a blend element to modify the characteristics of other polyolefins like polypropylene and polyethylene. Because of its specific properties it is mainly used in pressure Plumbing System, flexible packaging, water heaters, compounding and hot melt adhesives.
