Application

Butadiene Styrene Rubber serves as a versatile and essential component in various industries due to its excellent properties as a synthetic rubber. It is employed extensively in hot melt adhesives, sealants, asphalt, and oil gels, demonstrating its adaptability in enhancing the performance of these products. As a modifier, it improves polymers, thermosets, and general rubber compounding, contributing to the durability and flexibility of these materials. In addition, Butadiene Styrene Rubber is utilized in the production of direct-molded or extruded auto parts, sporting goods, footwear, and film. This copolymer, the most widely used type of synthetic rubber, highlights its leading role in the industry. Its extensive usage, surpassing that of polybutadiene and other elastomers, is a testament to its reliability and effectiveness. The production process involves copolymerizing butadiene and styrene, resulting in a material suitable for a wide range of applications.
