Sheet Segment to Remain Dominant through the Forecast Era
Based on the product type, the sheets segment are projected to hold the market share in the forecast period. The cellular rubber sheets are lightweight and can be compressed, the sheets are created into microcellular rubber sheets by combining rubber sheets with micro porosity cells.
The cellular rubber sheets have wide range of application in industries such as automotive, electronic, Aerospace as it has a unique ability of sealing and protecting. The cellular rubbers are available in different materials and sizes according to the needs such as NBR, EPDM and neoprene sheets.
EPDM Material to Witness the Largest Expansion
Based on the material, the EPDM segment is expected to have the largest share in the market. The EPDM rubber is made from crude oil and then synthesized using polymerization. EPDM has a unique application for UV radiation and moisture resistance which makes it a popular material in the market. The EPDM is usually used for sealing vehicle, window, and home molding.
Automotive End-Use to Sustain the Largest Revenue Share
Based on end user, the automotive industry segment are anticipated to dominant the market. Cellular rubber is mainly used for sealing doors and tries in vehicle body parts. The EPDM cellular rubber are widely used in the automotive industry due to its sealing and heat resistance properties. The EPDM cellular rubber is used as a barrier between the product for heat, weather, Road surface, and engine vibration.
Regional Insights
Based on regional analysis, Europe is anticipated grow widely in the cellular rubber market. The fast growing of automotive industry in this region due to the demand for vehicles and designed home are the key reason to lift the market in the forecast period.
Cellular rubber are largely used in the automotive sector for its sealing and noise reduction properties. The EPDM cellular rubbers can bond quickly with metals, which are used as protecting Shield against changing climatic conditions. It also protects the body parts of the vehicles from bad road surfaces and heavy vibration.
The Cellular Rubber Market to expand substantially backed by rampant adoption in the automotive industry
The competitors in the cellular rubber market are investing to produce eco-friendly variants.
The cellular rubber is produced using the foaming agent which creates a matrix structure filled with air. The closed-cell rubbers that are produced during the expansion process with the help of developing gas agents are cellular rubber. These rubbers are produced based on synthetic or natural rubber which has EPDM and elastomer are included.
The cells may be tight or connected with each other, as this property makes the cellular rubber water or airtight. The rubbers are produced in a huge process in form of blocks. The product can be fitted for any application as it has a variety of properties in the rubber mixture composition.
The key properties of cellular rubber are high heat resistance, low water absorption, better insulation property, and EPDM mixture for aging and heat resistance, and CR mixture for high flame and oils resistance.
The cellular rubber is used for many purposes such as sealing, shock absorption confinement in the space industry. The foam blocks that are made from cellular rubber are used for transparent and adding solar components. Space industry uses cellular rubber to block or seal the engines and lights.
The main obstacle faced by the cellular rubber market is the high raw material prices. The market has been highly competitive, as the cost indicates the minor changes in the balance of demand and supply affect the market. The increasing competition among the market players has made the competitors decrease their prices. The decrease in the price of crude oil has significantly declined the market for cellular rubber as it affected the oil and gas sectors.
