What is Nitrile Butadiene Rubber? Also known as Buna-N, nitrile butadiene rubber, or simply NBR, nitrile rubber is made from the polymer acrylonitrile and the chemical compound butadiene. Because it's a synthetic rubber, it's resistant to weather, ozone, and other elements. It's also known by other names, such as Buna-N or acrylonitrile, including nitrile butadiene. NBR is a popular synthetic rubber and is compatible with most environments. The benefits of NBR include its low cost and a high degree of flexibility at a low temperature. NBR is used in many industries, including cables, seals, and other rubber products. The chemical compounds that make it so versatile include butadiene and acrylonitrile. Further, it is resistant to ozone and UV rays.

Market Dynamics

Rapid development in transportation industry is driving growth of the Nitrile Butadiene Rubber (NBR) market. Also, growing demand from oil- and fuel-resistant seals in many industries is also anticipated to foster market growth. Moreover, increasing demand for nitrile glove is projected to bring bright market opportunities over the forecast period.

On other hand, availability of substitute products such as a polyurethane-based thermoset elastomer, Brandonite 1200-60A is expected to restrict the market growth.
