By: Ceresana Strongest Increase in Demand for Pigments The most important application area for carbon black are tires made of SBR (styrene butadiene rubber), BR (butadiene rubber) as well as natural rubber. This segment accounted for around 70% of the overall demand in 2014. The production of rubber goods for the segment Industry and Construction ranked second. Carbon black is processed in a wide range of products that are used in the chemical industry, mechanical engineering, the construction industry as well as the electrical and electronics industry. Products include conveyer belts, roll coverings, tubes, profiles, seals, cables, moldings, roofing foils, etc. The highest carbon black demand was recorded for the elastomer types SBR, BR, NBR, and EPDM. The proportion of carbon black used as a black pigment in printing inks, plastics as well as paints and coatings represented less than 10% of the total market volume in 2014. However, these application areas are experiencing the strongest growth rates of 2.9% to 4.5% p.a. Dominating Sales Market: Asia-Pacific In 2014, more than 60% of carbon black were processed in the Asia-Pacific region.
