Elastomer Bulletin 4: Chinese BR Technology Development Report

The International Institute of Synthetic Rubber Producers, Inc. (IISRP) and the China National Chemical Information Center (CNCIC) have jointly published the fourth report of their Elastomer Bulletin series of publications, titled Chinese BR Technology Development Report.

This nine-page report details the polybutadiene rubber technology research in China, including the development of conventional cis-polybutadiene (BR), low cis-polybutadiene (LCBR), high vinyl polybutadiene (HVBR), and the technology of bulk polymerisation of butadiene. According to the report, rare earth catalysed polybutadiene, producing LCBR and HVBR, is now playing a more important role in China’s emerging BR downstream market with increasing high performance requirements such as better abrasion resistance for tyres and plastics modifications. Energy saving technology is also being developed.
