The Global Market for Carbon Black to 2025 – Research and Markets

DUBLIN–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The “The
Global Market for Carbon Black to 2025”
report has been added
to Research and Markets’ offering.

Carbon black is industrially manufactured in the form of hundreds of
defined commercial grades that vary in their primary particle size,
aggregate size and shape, porosity, surface area, and chemistry. The
global demand for carbon black is over 13 million tons per annum, mainly
for application as reinforcing fillers in tires, automotive non-tire and
general rubber products. Other smaller markets include paints and
coatings, printing inks and toners and plastics. High value opportunity
markets have been identified in conductive materials, ESD shielding,
batteries and advanced insulation.

The industry will face significant challenges in the coming years from
environmentally friendly and advanced materials that are currently
prohibitively expensive for large scale usage, but represent a
significant future market threat as the trend towards other materials is
expected to grow. Carbon blacks will continue to dominate the rubber
market over the next few years but face competition from precipitated
silica and other materials in tire applications.

This trend may be partially offset by growth in the market for
specialty carbon black grades in markets such as:

  • Colour pigments in plastic, paints and inks.
  • Ultraviolet (UV) stabilizers.
  • Conductive battery additives.
  • Wire and cable insulation.
  • Fillers to impart electrical conductivity to polymers for
    electrostatic dissipative and conductive applications.

Report Contents Include:

  • In-depth analysis of the global carbon black market broken down by
    applications, tonnage and region.
  • Assessment of current and future markets for applications of carbon
    black including new and high value applications.
  • Pricing.
  • Historical data for the global carbon black market.
  • Market growth forecasts to 2025.
  • Key challenges for the carbon black market.
  • Assessment of competitive threats to the carbon black market.
  • Profiles of 27 carbon black producers including products and revenues.
