Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer (EPDM) Market: New Players Eye Entry Doors as Market Breaks Away from Consolidation, TMR

The global ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) market has been foreseen by Transparency Market Research (TMR) to exhibit a significant level of consolidation. However, the consolidated nature of the market could mellow down as a vast count of companies consider ventures, also intensifying the degree of competition. The industry could also be influenced by mergers and acquisitions and high focus on less developed markets for favorable growth prospects. The Dow Chemical Company, Lion Copolymer LLC, Mitsui Chemicals, LANXESS AG, Kumho Polychem, and ExxonMobil Chemical Company have been marked as the top six players securing a colossal share of approximately 80.0% in the world market.

According to TMR, the global EPDM market has been foretold to draw a revenue valuation of US$4.20 bn by 2024 at a CAGR of 5.4% from the opening year of the forecast period. In 2015, the market is analyzed to have raked in a US$2.63 bn. By end-user analysis, the automotive sector could take a leading position in the international market until 2024 as it had accounted for a more than 40.0% share in 2015. Holding a similar share in the same year as that of the automotive market, Asia Pacific has been envisioned to dominate other regions during the forecast period.
Focus Shifts to Less Developed Economies for Moneymaking Prospects 
The changing preference from traditional to bio-based products and a substantial surge in demand from the automotive and construction sectors have been expected to propel the growth of the global EPDM market. With a breakneck influx of small as well as medium-sized firms in the market, a host of new opportunities could take birth as the competition becomes more aggressive. An impressive number of EPDM manufacturers have been anticipated to extend their reach to emerging nations where the demand for private and public automobiles and construction projects are experiencing a perpetual rise. 
Electrical and plastics (polymer modification) are the other sectors that could give some momentum to the growth of the global EPDM market. The significant demand for thermoplastic vulcanizates (TPV) and thermoplastic olefins (TPO) in a range of sectors such as consumer goods, medical devices, packaging, and construction has been predicted to bode well for the market. In the coming years, vendors could expect lucrative growth opportunities from the thermoplastic modification industry.

EPDM Oversupply and Fluctuating Raw Material Cost Unsettle Growth 
The more than required supply of EPDM due to humungous capacity additions by top companies such as Mitsui Chemicals and LANXESS after the late economic depression could impede the growth of the global EPDM market. This could also add pricing pressures on currently operating industry players. Other than that, raw material cost fluctuations have been projected to discourage the demand in the market. 
Nonetheless, the EPDM market is the one which finds expansive growth prospects in developing regions such as Asia Pacific and Latin America as opposed to the common scenario of developed regions taking the charge. As the international market loses its consolidated nature, new entrants have been envisaged to be exposed to sustainable growth opportunities birthed in the process. More growth opportunities could take precedence as the demand for EPDM rubbers increases in the booming automotive sector. South Korea, Thailand, India, and China have been studied to be the major consumers of EPDM. 
The global EPDM market has been segmented as presented below:

Superabrasives (Turning, Cutting, Buffing, Drilling, Boring, Grinding) Market Research Report 2025

An abrasive is a material which molds or provides finishing to a work piece through a process which includes buffing, grinding, cutting, as well as polishing. Abrasion typically depends on the difference in the hardness of the material and the abrasive (with the latter being the harder of the two). Unlike regular abrasion where any two solid materials that repeatedly rub against each other tend to wear away, superabrasives possess the kind of hardness that enables them to stay usable for a longer period of time. On the basis of hardness, the top two superabrasives include diamond and cubic boron nitride (CBN). Industrial diamonds used as superabrasives are exceptionally hard materials. However, they display several technological limitations. For instance, when a diamond comes in contact with a ferrous alloy such as steel or a nickel superalloy, the resulting formation of carbide leads to its abrasion. Also, a diamond-containing tool can only be used at moderate temperatures a...

Industrial Lubricants Market: Strong Demand Across Automotive Industry, Trends To 2025

Lubricants refer to the organic or inorganic material primarily being use to decrease friction between two surfaces in contact. Lubricants play a key role in several industries as well as in commercial and residential sectors. One of their most common uses is in the lubrication of bearings and gears, allowing for their easy movement at high speeds, without loss in energy, prevent excessive generation of heat, or most importantly, prevent damage that would be caused otherwise. Industrial lubricants are, therefore, essential in enhancing the overall efficiency of a machine that contains moving parts in contact with one another. The global industrial lubricants market is currently expanding at a solid growth rate, driven by several factors and spearheaded by the likes of BP, Total, Chevron Corporation, ExxonMobil, and Shell.

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 proto...
