Polyisobutylene (PIB, also called polyisobutene, CAS 9003-27-4) is a vinyl polymer that is made from the monomer isobutylene (IB) by cationic polymerization.
PIB is a colorless to light-yellow, elastic, semisolid or viscous substance. It is odorless, tasteless, and nontoxic. Because of their highly paraffinic and nonpolar nature, PIBs are soluble in aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbon solvents and insoluble in polar solvents. Solubility generally decreases with increasing molecular weight of the polymer and increasing size of the aliphatic portion of the solvent molecule. The amorphous characteristics and low glass transition temperature (Tg = −62°C) of PIB impart high flexibility and permanent tack. Despite the favorable tack property, the adhesion of PIBs to many surfaces is weak because of their low polarity. This problem can be overcome by the addition of tackifiers (such as rosin ester resins) and other materials that will impart some polar properties to the formulation.
The global market for Polyisobutylene (PIB) was estimated to be worth US$ 2089.9 million in 2023 and is forecast to a readjusted size of US$ 2532.7 million by 2030 with a CAGR of 3.1% during the forecast period 2024-2030
Global key producers of polyisobutylene (PIB) include TPC, Infineum, Lubrizol and others. The top four producers together account for more than 60% of the market share, with the largest producer being Daelim with 18% of the market share. Global origins are mainly located in North America, Europe, China, Japan, Korea, South America, India, etc. In terms of product categories, low-molecular-weight polyisobutylene holds the largest market share, with a share of about 95%. In terms of applications, fuel and lubricant additives is the top applications with a 76% market share, followed by adhesive and sealant.
