Isoprene is defined as a colorless and volatile liquid organic compound, usually employed to make compound substances with residences based on its proportion of ingredients, and the synthetic rubber and persecution aluminum chloride instigator have outstanding solidness to gases and are employed in inner tubes. According to BlueQuark Research & Consulting, the global Isoprene market is expected to witness a considerable growth rate during the forecasted period. Factors rising demand for tires in the automotive industry leads to an increase in the global isoprene market's growth in the forecasted period. Further, the rise in the need for polyisoprene products increases the demand for polyisoprene rubber in the medical sector in the global isoprene market growth. Furthermore, synthetic rubber is replacing natural rubber in almost every rubber application, and this acts as a driving factor for the isoprene market in the forecasted period. However, the strict regulation on synthetic chemicals to produce rubbers tends to increase growth opportunities of alternative materials, which may constrain the demand for Isoprene in the forecasted period.
The polyisoprene sector has been the primary market for Isoprene. Polyisoprene is used mainly in producing tires and other rubber products, and it has a lower non-polymer component level than natural rubber. In rubber bands, footwear, cut thread, baby bottle nipples, hoses, and conveyor belts, polyisoprene is used in addition to tires. Polyisoprene is commonly used in medical devices like surgical gloves, sample covers, and catheters.
The Automotive Industry is the most vital consumer of Isoprene and is projected to drive the Global Market. Growing demand for the product in automotive parts, including tires, engine mounting, fuel hoses, mud flaps, floor mats, suspension bushes, and exhaust rubber hangers, is anticipated to drive market growth. The tire industry is evaluated as the fastest-growing end-use industry of the isoprene market during the forecasted period. Properties such as toughness, abrasion, cold resistance, high tensile strength, high resilience, and good hot tear strength make it suitable for tire manufacturing. A significant driver of the tire industry is the growing automotive industry due to the ever-increasing need for fuel efficiency, and eco-friendly tires are driving the tire industry and, in turn, the market for Isoprene in the tire end-use industry. Growing automotive production mainly in Indonesia, Japan, China, Malaysia, and Taiwan is expected to propel the demand for the industry in the automotive sector. Isobutylene isoprene, an isoprene derivative, is used in fuels and lubricants as an additive. Further, the rising number of automobile vehicles is a significant factor in increasing the use of Isoprene in the automobile industry. Pyramids Tires, a new tire manufacturer based in Port Said, northeast Egypt, has USD 350 million Egyptian factories, started its first tire roll production line in May 2020. However, the factory currently manufactures motorcycle, forklift, and agricultural tires as part of the first phase of the plant's growth. However, the tire industries are all set for a comeback, and the upsurge in the growth rate will get visualized in mid-2021, which will increase the demand for Isoprene. Due to these factors, the market for Isoprene is likely to grow globally during the forecasted period.
The Global Isoprene market is highly fragmented. Major companies in the market were Royal Dutch Shell PLC, Kraton Corporation, JSR Corporation, Exxon Mobil Corporation, The Dow Chemical Company, and Zeon Corporation.
The Asia-Pacific region dominates the global market share, as Asia-Pacific is the largest manufacturer of tires. In the Asia-Pacific region, countries such as India, China, Japan, etc., are the largest manufactures of the automotive industry, including automobile and commercial vehicles. Isoprene is an all-inclusive industrial chemical used to make various products, including synthetic rubber, pesticide, medicine, and other refined chemical products, like pyrethrum, linalool, plant alcohol, VE, and to synthesize perfume. The need for the product is expected to witness significant growth due to its physical, chemical, and mechanical properties, which is beneficial for producing medical devices. Increasing expenditures and more attention to health care by developing markets, constructing hospitals and clinics, and establishing public health insurance will augment the medical devices market. Additionally, the aging population coupled with the surging global revenues in developing countries will fuel growth, propelling the demand for the product in the medical sector. Whereas in the medical industry, the manufacturing level of ventilators and the sudden change in the healthcare ventilators market have increased the demand for polyisoprene. The polymer grade type of Isoprene is widely worn to produce polyisoprene and isobutylene isoprene rubber. This type of Isoprene is also used in other industries like medical and pharmaceutical packaging and products like rubber bands, footwear, cut thread, baby bottle nipples, hoses, and conveyor belts. The natural rubber market is predicted to grow in potential, strength, and dominance over the synthetic rubber market used in automobile parts, manufacturing tires, and surgical instruments. But polyisoprene application of the consequence is another consistent and cleaner analog than natural rubber, and the companies can advantage from this by carefully administrating their potential while making new technology available on the market.
In January 2019, Gevo announced that it developed a stimulant, developed and fixed a catalytic process that converts economically accessible or product waste, reused alcohol into sustainable Isoprene. It will likely compete with natural and petroleum-based chemical equivalents on cost head-to-head while decreasing CO2 emissions.
