A key driver for the global styrene-butadiene-styrene block copolymer market is the growing consumption of SBS block copolymers in adhesive and sealant applications. SBS block copolymer-based adhesive and sealants reduce the overall cost of the entire manufacturing process. They demonstrate superior product performance, are reliable and increase the lifespan of the product. Hence, they are used in automotive and transportation, furniture and woodwork, building and construction, electrical and electronics, footwear, and packaging industries.

Global styrene-butadiene-styrene block copolymer market: Growing investment in R&D
The growing competition in the global SBS block copolymer market in recent years has compelled manufacturers to add value to their product offerings through increased investments in R&D. This has helped in increasing the vendors' focus on R&D and technological developments to offer new and innovative polymer products that are more functional, cost-effective, and sustainable.
"The price sensitivity of end-users has led to manufacturers expanding their product portfolio and developing cheaper bio-based SBS block copolymers. For instance, the manufacturers have developed soybean-based SBS polymers that are capable of replacing synthetic SBS polymers in several applications such as bitumen modification applications and coating applications, without major changes in their specifications," says a senior research analyst at Technavio.
