Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene Market Report 2022: Growing Need for Lightweight Automotive Materials Bolsters Growth


Dublin, Feb. 28, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report By Type (Opaque, Transparent, Colored), By Application (Appliances, Electrical & Electronics, Automotive), By Region, And Segment Forecasts, 2022 - 2030" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The global acrylonitrile butadiene styrene market size is expected to reach USD 31.20 billion by 2030. The market is expected to expand at a CAGR of 4.6% from 2022 to 2030. The growing need for lightweight materials used in the automotive industry in various applications such as pipe, automotive body parts, wheel covers, enclosures, and protective headgear is expected to drive the demand for acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS).

The superior characteristics of acrylonitrile butadiene styrene make it highly compatible with metals, adhesives, rubber, and coatings, which increases its preference over other products. Increasing production of acrylonitrile butadiene styrene is the key factor behind the growth of this market.

The revision of the regulatory framework associated with the acrylonitrile butadiene styrene industry is expected to increase the efficacy, safety, and performance standards of ABS-based medical products. As a result, the demand for superior-quality acrylonitrile butadiene styrene is expected to grow in Europe in the coming years. The market for acrylonitrile butadiene styrene in the region is highly regulated, with stringent regulations applied for the manufacturing of acrylonitrile butadiene styrene by the World Health Organization (WHO).

ABS can be easily processed via injection molding as well as recycled. It has good resistance against corrosive chemicals and physical impact. However, ABS is not used in high-heat situations due to its low melting point. ABS compounds are commonly used in electrical and electronics and consumer goods applications and are gaining acceptance owing to high strength, rigidity, and dimensional stability. The product offers resistance against impact and heat coupled with toughness.

The electrical and electronics segment is the leading application of ABS compounds. However, the appliances and automotive application segments are expected to provide maximum growth opportunities for the ABS market. The product is used in shavers, vacuum cleaners, food processors, and refrigerator liners, and its usage is expected to rise considering the increased production of lightweight passenger cars. Among recent developments, ABS is used in 3D printing as ABS parts can be easily sourced globally.
