Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer (EPDM) is a synthetic material obtained from natural gas and thermal cracking petroleum products such as naphtha. Due to its exceptional resilience to environmental elements like UV, ozone, and other weather conditions, EPDM is frequently utilized in low-slope structures, automotive uses, and construction applications. Also, owing to its cheaper cost, greater moldability, and longer durability, EPDM has recently experienced rapid demand from the manufacturing, construction, and automotive industries attributed to its better resistance to tearing, abrasion, solvent, and temperature. Additionally, EPDM can be used in place of silicon rubber in a variety of applications, including hoses, O-rings, accumulator bladders, diaphragms, and connections for wires and cables.
The Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer (EPDM) Market is expected to grow at a steady rate of around 8% during the forecast period (2022-2028) owing to the increasing adoption of Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer (EPDM) in the automotive industries as well as electrical industries for insulation along with non-slip coating for deck and playground. Major companies in the market are focusing to provide Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomers (EPDM)s with technologically advanced features along with product launches, collaboration, and mergers & acquisitions. For instance, in April 2021 Versalis launched a new product for food packaging that is made up of 75% of post-consumer polystyrene.
