Ethylene Propylene Rubber Market is Expected growth in the Automobile Industry Applications Evolving Technology, Trends and industry Analysis-2020

Ethylene propylene rubber is classified into two different types of rubbers including EPM, which is an ethylene propylene monomer, and EPDM, which is a terpolymer and is based on three monomers including ethylene, propylene and a non-conjugated diene. EPM is an entirely saturated ethylene propylene rubber and hence requires vulcanization by radiation that releases free radicals such as organic peroxides. 
In contrast, EPDM possess residual unsaturation in its side chains and are therefore treated with sulfur and accelerators. Heat resistance of EPDM is comparatively better as compared to natural rubber and butadiene rubber. Due to the completely saturated hydrocarbon backbone, EPM and EPDM are ozone resistant, heat resistant and oxidation resistant. Owing to the advances in catalyst technologies and polymerization, polymers are designed and manufactured for specific purposes.

Ethylene propylene rubbers are employed in a wide range of applications including automotive weather-stripping and seals, garden and appliance hoses, belts, tubing, roofing membranes, glass run channels, rubber mechanical goods, thermoplastic vulcanisates, plastic impact modification and in motor oil additive applications. Ethylene propylene rubbers are employed largely in the automotive industry as these rubbers are exceptionally heat resistant and are not affected by the continually changing weather.

Ethylene propylene rubber exhibits stable and saturated backbone structure and hence provides high heat resistance and durability.  EPMs are used to a wide extent as insulators for high-voltage cables due to their better insulation characteristics as compared to EPDM. EPM cables are flexible and are better suited in places where regular cable movement is required such as in the mining industry.

Some of the key drivers for the ethylene propylene rubber market is its use in the automobile industry. The automobile industry has been growing in various regions over the past few years and this trend is expected to continue in the near future. Ethylene propylene rubbers are employed in the manufacture of automotive rubber stripping and seals. In addition, ethylene propylene rubber is used as an additive in motor oils and is employed in the production of engine mounts, windshield wipers and brake parts. The demand for ethylene propylene rubbers is largely driven by the automotive industry owing to its high resistance to heat, weather and vibration dampening properties.

The key regions present in the ethylene propylene rubber market include North America, Europe, Asia Pacific and Rest of the World (RoW). Asia Pacific is anticipated to be the fastest growing market in terms of demand during the forecast period. This is owing to the growth in the automobile industry in the region especially in emerging regions such as India and China. The changing lifestyle of consumers coupled with the growing disposable income of consumers is likely to boost the automobile industry over the next few years.

This in turn is expected to drive the ethylene propylene rubber market during the forecast period. Europe follows as the second largest automotive manufacturing region followed by North America and RoW.  Additionally, the demand is expected to be very high in the BRIC countries with the increase in number of cars and better road conditions. It is expected that the number of car users in developing countries would increase in the next few years. Due to growth in automobile industry in the above regions, the market for ethylene propylene rubber is estimated to rise by a huge margin over the next few years.

 Some of the key companies present in the ethylene propylene rubber market include LANXESS AG, Firestone Building Products Company LLC, ExxonMobil Chemical Company,  JSR Corporation, , Mitsui Chemicals, Lion Copolymer LLC., Kumho Polychem Co. Ltd., SK Global Chemical Co. Ltd., and Versalis.

Welding Products Market Growth in Wind Power Sector to Create Opportunities, TMR

The global welding products market is moderately fragmented with the key players such as Lincoln Electric, ESAB, and ITW leading in the market. These three players accounted for a collective share of 30% in 2013, states a new report by Transparency Market Research (TMR). This market is capital intensive and thus, local vendors find it difficult to compete with the larger players. Local players are unable to compete with large players on the basis of quality, services, functionalities, and features. Thus, these small players are entering into the market by introducing products that are low in price. Some of the players operating in the welding products market are: Voestalpine AG, Sonics & Materials Inc., Fronius International GmbH, Rofin-Sinar Technologies Inc., Arcon Welding, Bohler, Panasonic, Daihen Corp, and OBARA Co. In order to increase their production capacities and focus on innovations, companies are adopting the strategy of merging or acquiring other players. Acco

Rapid Prototyping Market - Rapidly Gaining Importance in Aerospace Sector, Research By 2024

Rapid prototyping is a technique in which the physical modeling of a design is done with the help of specialized machining technology. It was developed initially in the mid-1980s, the principle used in this technology is of solid modeling with the help of computer programs (i.e. CAD). Solid modeling makes use of computer aided-design (CAD) data to completely describe not just the external shape of parts or equipment, but its interior volume as well as the outside surfaces. The computer model is sliced into thin layers and the part of the product or commodity to be modelled or developed as per the requirement, is eventually fabricated by adding layers onto each other. Obtain Report Details @   http://www.transparencymarketresearch.com/rapid-prototyping-market.html The primary benefit of the system is that almost any shape can be manufactured using computerized programs. Time and money savings vary from 50% to 90% compared to conventional systems. Types of rapid prototypi

Oil and Gas Pipeline Leak Detection Equipment Market Driven by Stringent Government Regulations

Although renewable resources of energy have gained substantial popularity in the recent past, there is no foreseeable limitation to the escalating demand for oil and gas, with the growing population and rapid urbanization. Consequently, the demand in the global market for oil and gas pipeline leak detection equipment is projected for a robust CAGR of 6.8% during the forecast period of 2016 to 2024, according to a recent report by Transparency Market Research (TMR). As per the estimations of the TMR report, the global oil and gas pipeline leak detection equipment market will be worth US$3.65 bn by the end of 2024, significantly up from its evaluated valuation of US$2.02 bn in 2015. Some of the key factors augmenting the demand in the oil and gas pipeline leak detection equipment market are: development and expansion of existing pipelines and construction of new pipelines, increasing incidents of oil and gas leakages in pipeline and storage tanks at production facilities, and
