Selected Molecular Weight done in the full Report:
Polyisobutylene is commercially available in three variants mainly that include high molecular weight products, medium molecular weight and low molecular weight. Among all the product types, medium molecular weight polyisobutylene is estimated to hold a major share in industries of automotive, and sealants due to its superior UV, oxidation and heat resistive properties. The medium molecular weight segment is expected to grow at a CAGR of 3.73% to reach revenue of $722.7 million in 2024. Rising interest for sealants and adhesives combined with expanding requirement in lubricating oils is expected to increase the market in the near future. The high molecular weight Polyisobutylene segment gained revenue of $299.59 million in 2017. The present market for highly reactive PIB is poised to reach $372 million by 2024, growing at a CAGR of 3.68% during the forecast period of 2017-2024. Low molecular weight PIB has applications in various fields such as additive for lubricants, raw materials for cling film and electric wire coatings. The low molecular weight PIB is poised to grow at a CAGR of 1.44% to reach revenue of $121.92 million by 2024. Among various applications, additives are estimated to hold the major share, followed by others and automotive in PIB application sectors.
