Market Overview 

Elastomers market refers to the market of rubber-like, elastic, and hard materials. The materials, which are flexible and can be deformed but return to their original shape, are applied in industries such as construction, automotive, and healthcare. Polymers exhibiting elastic behaviour are referred to as elastomers. These are indefinitely cross-linked polymers with weak intermolecular interactions. It possesses high tensile strength but low electrical conductivity. Elastomers are classified into two groups: thermoset and thermoplastic. Thermoplastic elastomers exhibit rubber and elastic behaviour. This type of elastomer is easy to handle. The major benefits of thermoplastic are resistance to chemicals and recycling. Meanwhile, cross-linkages are developed when thermoset polymers are processed. Elastomer linkages cannot be reversed, and deformation is hard to accomplish. Elastomers exhibit excellent heat resistance and are perceived as cost-saving and appealing materials. This expansion is due to the increasing demand from the automotive sector for light and high-performance materials is considerable, since elastomers offer crucial properties like durability and chemical resistance. The development of processing technologies and more applications in the construction, medical, and consumer goods industries for elastomers drives the growth of the market.
