Raw material innovation and circular breakthrough: butyl rubber industry accelerates the construction of a new green development ecosystem
Since 2025, the butyl rubber industry has entered a critical transition period of raw material system innovation and circular economy development under the background of deepening the "dual carbon" target. Data shows that in the global butyl rubber market in 2024, the proportion of green and low-carbon related products has increased to 22%. Among them, the production capacity of bio based butyl rubber has increased by 45% year-on-year, and the recycling rate of waste butyl rubber has exceeded 18%. As a major producer and consumer of butyl rubber, China's bio based butyl rubber production will reach 32000 tons in 2024, with a waste recycling volume of over 15000 tons. The industry is accelerating from "scale expansion" to "green quality improvement".
