Styrene-butadiene latex is a common synthetic rubber derived from styrene and butadiene monomers. It differs from natural latex used in medical gloves and styrene-butadiene rubber used in tire production. The global styrene-butadiene latex market is estimated to reach $9.12 billion by 2023, driven by growth in the paper coating industry. Production of styrene-butadiene latex is highly fragmented worldwide, with the two largest producers controlling over 25% of the market.

2. Styrene-butadiene latex is one
of the common stable
emulsions, which is derived from
butadiene and styrene and
belongs to families of synthetic
rubber. Natural latex is majorly
used in medical gloves, whereas
styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR)
is used for mass production of
tires.

6. Global styrene-butadiene latexes
market size is estimated to be valued
at US$ 9,120.3 million by 2023,
exhibiting a CAGR of 3.5% during the
forecast period. Rapid growth of
paper coating market is expected to
increase the demand for styrene-
butadiene and subsequently propel
the market growth in the near future.

Styrene-butadiene latex differs from both of its
monomers and from natural latex, which is made from
the sap of Hevea brasiliensis trees (aka rubber trees). It
also differs from another manufactured compound,
styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR), which shares a similar
name but offers a different set of properties.

9. The production of SB latex is
highly fragmented worldwide.
More than 50 producers
globally, with two market
leaders— Trinseo and BASF—
together control more than
25% of the market.
Because of the fragmentation
and low overall growth in the
market, it is possible to expect
a further rationalization of the
supply structure, including
more capacity rationalization
(including unit closures).
