1,3 Butadiene Market size was valued at USD 2.84 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach USD 6.28 billion by 2037, expanding at around 6.3% CAGR during the forecast period i.e., between 2025-2037. In the year 2025, the industry size of 1, 3 butadiene is evaluated at USD 2.98 billion. The growth of the market can be attributed primarily to the increasing production of motor vehicles worldwide, as 1,3 butadiene offers elastomers which are highly used in the production of tires. A report by OICA reveals that the production of motor vehicles worldwide increased from 58374162 units in 2000 to 91786861 units in 2019.
The chemical compound 1,3-butadiene is a colorless, synthetic gas or liquid that is useful as a chemical intermediate or monomer (molecules that form polymers when attached to others). It is widely used in the manufacture of synthetic rubbers or elastomers and is highly soluble in ethanol, ether, acetone, and benzene, but highly insoluble in water. Moreover, the extensive use of product in end use industries such as automobile, construction, healthcare, and expansion of chemical industry are projected to drive 1,3 butadiene market growth during the forecast period. According to estimates, the Indian chemical industry is projected to grow by 10% and reach USD 300 billion in revenue by 2025.

Product (Butadiene Rubber, Styrene Butadiene Rubber, Acrylonitrile Butadiene Rubber, Nitrile Butadiene Rubber, SB Latex, Hexamethylenediamine)
The global 1,3 butadiene market is segmented and analyzed for demand and supply by product into butadiene rubber, styrene butadiene rubber, acrylonitrile butadiene rubber, nitrile butadiene rubber, SB latex, hexamethylenediamine, and others. Among these segments, the styrene butadiene rubber (SBR) segment is anticipated to capture the largest market size in the global 1,3 butadiene market owing to the rising trade and exports of SBR globally. Styrene butadiene rubber exports were valued at USD 6,515,185 thousands in 2021, up from USD 4,508,649 thousands in the previous year, according to the International Trade Center (Trademap). Moreover, SBR is the major component of synthetic rubber, and it is mixed with natural rubber to create tires. It is commonly used when water, hydraulic fluids, or alcohol are present. Styrene-butadiene has strong water resistance as well as compressive strength. These factors are expected to fuel segment growth over the forecast period.
