The global MBS resin market size was USD 1955.2 million in 2022 and is projected to touch USD 3359.87 million by 2031, exhibiting a CAGR of 6.2% during the forecast period.

MBS resin is also known as methyl methacrylate-butadiene-styrene resin. It is a unique combination of properties such as transparency up-gradation, which impacts excellent mechanical and resistivity properties, making it a material of choice. These resin polymers are employed in the manufacturing of building, packaging, and construction products. These polymers improve the processing performance and strength of PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) products. It is a terpolymer prepared by emulsifying grafting polymerization of methyl methacrylate (M), butadiene (B), and styrene (S) and is used in the manufacturing of various appliances due to its resistivity and mechanical properties. 

MBS resin is majorly used for the manufacturing process of non-outdoor products such as sheet pipes, bottle granular material, fittings, polyvinyl chloride film, and others. MBS is a modifying agent that helps in improving plastic properties. It is used in manufacturing semi-hard materials such as PVC and engineering plastics to improve their processability and strength. It has excellent resistivity and mechanical properties, which are anticipated to surge the MBS Resin market growth. The use of the product in the building and construction sector is forecasted to surge growth in the global market.   

COVID-19 Impact: Prohibition On Construction and Automotive Industry Halted the Growth

All the industries experienced a significant downfall when the COVID-19 pandemic. Due to repeated lockdowns and the significant economic transformation brought on by COVID-19, the growth of the chemicals and advanced material industries has been hampered. The abrupt halt impacted the selling of chemicals in products and the closure of manufacturing facilities. The primary application of the product is in the construction and automotive industry, which was prohibited during the lockdown. Thus, the market witnessed a negative impact of COVID-19 on its growth.

LATEST TRENDS

"Various Product Applications to Drive Trends in the Market"

The unique combination of the chemical properties such as resistivity, mechanical strength, and transparency enhancement surges the product adoption in various applications such as PVC sheets, PVC film, PVC pipe, and others. The MBS resin is used to enhance processability, increase surface property, and increase foaming capacity, which is forecasted to surge the MBS Resin market share. The market growth is also expected to be attributable to the increased demand for PVC, and the rising construction activities worldwide are also anticipated to drive trends in the market.

"Benefits Associated with MBS Resin to Augment Product Demand"

MBS resin is used in PVC sheets, PVC pipe, PVC film, and others, which is expected to aid market growth. PVC sheets are used as a roof, are prone to cleaning chemicals, and can be easily cleaned. Additionally, these sheets are unbreakable when thrown from a height of 40 inches, proving them to be resistant. PVC pipes are safe for drinking water transportation due to their resistance to corrosion and high inertness degree. This application is anticipated to surge the market growth.

Moreover, PVC films are durable, non-conductive, and fire-resistant. These factors are forecasted to boost product adoption. Additionally, the usage of the product in packaging apparatus, medical devices, electronic devices, and others is predicted to gain traction in the market.

RESTRAINING FACTORS

"Lack of Awareness and Prohibited Use of Products to Impede Growth"

Using the chemical material requires professional experience, which is expected to limit the market growth. The awareness of the product application and its benefits is anticipated to hinder the market growth. Additionally, the prohibited use of PVC in construction is estimated to limit product adoption. Moreover, the economic downfall affected the construction and automotive industry, which is anticipated to restrain the market growth.
