BR Latex's Japanese Market 2026
BR latex in the Japanese market: projected to reach 3,868 million USD by 2026, with a growth rate of 5.2%.
BR latex is a water-based polybutadiene latex produced by the emulsion polymerization of butadiene, serving as a functional intermediate material that supplies the rubber phase to ABS resin, MBS modifiers, ASA/AAS, and core-shell type modifiers. In particular, in ABS resin, it plays a role in enhancing impact resistance, toughness, low-temperature properties, and mechanical strength by grafting styrene and acrylonitrile onto polybutadiene latex. The global production volume in 2025 is estimated to be approximately 3.45 million tons in wet latex equivalent and about 1.87 million tons in dry solid equivalent, with average selling prices estimated at around $991 per ton and approximately $1,833 per ton, respectively.
