Is Fast Curing Nitrile Butadiene Rubber (NBR) the Ultimate Sealant?

Fast curing Nitrile Butadiene Rubber (NBR) is appreciated valuable polymer produced through hot polymerization. It has outstanding oil resistance, sealing holding, and short curing time intervals.


Novel Applications

Fast curing NBR is used in various molded rubber parts like interior membranes, vibration dampers, seals, and hoses of passenger and commercial vehicles. It finds various applications such as conveyor belts, hoses, adhesives, gaskets, and sealants that are used in upstream and downstream activities in the oil & gas sector.
Seals and O-rings are widely used in hydraulic engines in automotive, construction and other industrial equipment where oil resistance is a big concern. Polymer based conveyer belts are widely accepted in food contact applications to protect finished products from chemical contamination. 
Disposable gloves including nitrile rubber, vinyl, latex, neoprene are widely accepted in medical and other industrial applications. These gloves can protect patients and doctors from cross-contamination.

Nonsterile Powder-free Nitrile Gloves

Recently, Nulife has manufactured Nitrile gloves using synthetic latex. These gloves are highly puncture resistance in comparison to natural rubber. They are antistatic and odour free. Therefore, they are widely used in food and dairy industries. These gloves can be perfect for the people with latex allergy. They can also bear IPA washing.

Market Overview

According to a report by Grand View Research, Inc.; the global fast curing nitrile butadiene rubber (NBR) market is predicted to gain nearly USD 581.2 million in 2025. Rising domestic customers for four-wheelers in China, India, and Mexico has created favorable conditions for automotive manufacturing industries. Oil & gas may observe around 3.7% CAGR during the forecast period (from 2017 to 2025).

Disposable gloves are projected to grow at a CAGR 3.8% till 2025. Their ability to prevent chemical contamination can impel the demand across the developed countries like UK and Germany. Asia Pacific is estimated to observe a 4.4% CAGR on accounts of revenue in the years to come. North America is predicted to gain 20.8 % total market share in terms of demand till 2025.

Some prominent players operating in the worldwide market are JSR; Zeon Chemicals; and Lanxess, and Kumho Petrochemicals.
