Thermoplastic Elastomer Market Segmentation:

Type Segment Analysis

The global thermoplastic elastomer market is segmented and analyzed for demand and supply by type into SBC, TPU, TPO, TPV, COPE, and PEBA. Out of these, the TPV segment is estimated to gain the largest market share of about 26% in the year 2035. TPV's unique combination of properties, such as its flexibility, strength, and resistance to abrasion, temperature, and chemicals, make it ideal for use in a wide variety of applications, including automotive, electrical/electronics, construction, and consumer products. These benefits are expected to drive the demand for TPV in the coming years. Moreover, TPV is a thermoplastic elastomer made from a blend of polypropylene, ethylene propylene diene monomer rubber, and other materials. The blend of materials makes it both strong and flexible, and its recyclability makes it an environmentally friendly choice. A report found that about 60% of consumers worldwide are making eco-friendly and sustainable purchases.

End-user Segment Analysis

The global thermoplastic elastomer market is segmented and analyzed for demand and supply by end user into automotive, building & construction, footwear, wire & cable, medical, and engineering. Out of these, the automotive segment is estimated to gain the significant market share of about 36% in the year 2035. The growth of the segment can be attributed to the increasing demand for lightweight materials in the automotive sector as it helps to reduce the overall weight of the vehicle while providing better performance, along with the development of electric vehicles and other advanced technologies. Additionally, the stringent regulations imposed by governments on the automotive industry to reduce emissions and improve the fuel economy of vehicles are also expected to drive the demand for thermoplastic elastomers in the automotive sector.
