North America Carbon Black Market Segmented By Product, Application and Geography 2015-2020
M2 - Mon Jan 25, 10:01AM CST
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/24h2bq/north_america) has announced the addition of the "North America Carbon Black Market Segmented By Product, Application and Geography (2015-2020)" report to their offering. The North American Carbon Black market has a value of $3.6 billion as of 2014 Carbon black is mainly used as a pigment and reinforcing filler in automobile tires as it conducts heat away from the tread and belt area of the tire, reducing thermal damage and increasing tire life. These account for 75% of the global usage. Carbon black particles are also employed in some radar absorbent materials, photocopier and laser printer toner as well as inks and paints. The high tinting strength and stability of carbon black also makes it useful in coloring of resins and films. About 16% of world production goes into belts, hoses, and other non-tire rubber goods and the rest goes into pigment in inks, coatings and plastics. Carbon black improves tensile strength and wear resistance of rubber. This makes it useful in elastomers for aircraft vibration control components such as engine mounts. Extensive research focused on developing improved grades of Carbon Black is anticipated to increase the scope of their utilization to a greater extent. Innovation in products has become the standard strategy adopted by major players in this sector. Key Topics Covered: 1. Introduction 2. Executive Summary 3. North America Carbon Black Market 4.

Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/c8mwfv/assessment_of) has announced the addition of the "Assessment of Indonesia's Rubber Industry Analysis 2015" report to their offering. The report Assessment of Indonesia's Rubber Industry Analysis 2015' highlights key dynamics ofIndonesia's rubber sector. The potential of the sector has been investigated along with key challenges.The current market scenario and future prospects of the sector has also been studied. The report contains profiles of key players including Bridgestone Corp, Michelin, Goodyear, Continental A.G. and Sumitomo Rubber Industries Ltd.The report contains latest verbatim of industry experts. The global market is currently in its fourth year of surplus of natural rubber. The excess supply situation has caused stocks to pile high and prices are falling steadily. It is expected that global surplus by the year 2020 will be approximately 1 million tons of natural rubber and 3 million tons of synthetic rubber.World demand for natural rubber, which is primarily used to manufacture tires, is cooling down due to the economic downturn in China. Asia accounts for 93% of the world natural rubber production with Thailand being the largest producer followed by Indonesia and Vietnam. Other large rubber producers in the region include India, China and Malaysia. China is the world's largest consumer of natural rubber followed by India and the United States. Increasing consumption of tyres and industrial rubber products is expected to boost the global demand for natural rubbers. Indonesia is the second largest rubber producer globally behind Thailand. While the industry is faced with challenges such as low production and poor infrastructure, growing rubber demand from developing economies is expected to boost the market in 2015. Indonesia is the second largest natural rubber producer globally. The industry is currently experiencing oversupply with demand having slowed down particularly from China which is the largest buyer of rubber in the world. Sumatra is the key natural rubber producing area in Indonesia accounting for two-thirds of the rubber latex harvested followed by Kalimantan, Sulawesi and Java. 85% of the rubber producers are smallholders and they contribute 81% to the national output. Actively supporting the sector, the International Rubber Consortium, which is a body representing rubber producers Thailand, Indonesia and Malaysia, has recently recommended the commodity not be sold at the current low prices.

North America Carbon Black Market Segmented By Product, Application and Geography 2015-2020
M2 - Mon Jan 25, 10:01AM CST
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/24h2bq/north_america) has announced the addition of the "North America Carbon Black Market Segmented By Product, Application and Geography (2015-2020)" report to their offering. The North American Carbon Black market has a value of $3.6 billion as of 2014 Carbon black is mainly used as a pigment and reinforcing filler in automobile tires as it conducts heat away from the tread and belt area of the tire, reducing thermal damage and increasing tire life. These account for 75% of the global usage. Carbon black particles are also employed in some radar absorbent materials, photocopier and laser printer toner as well as inks and paints. The high tinting strength and stability of carbon black also makes it useful in coloring of resins and films. About 16% of world production goes into belts, hoses, and other non-tire rubber goods and the rest goes into pigment in inks, coatings and plastics. Carbon black improves tensile strength and wear resistance of rubber. This makes it useful in elastomers for aircraft vibration control components such as engine mounts. Extensive research focused on developing improved grades of Carbon Black is anticipated to increase the scope of their utilization to a greater extent. Innovation in products has become the standard strategy adopted by major players in this sector. Key Topics Covered: 1. Introduction 2. Executive Summary 3. North America Carbon Black Market 4. Market Dynamics 5. Market Segmentation and Analysis 6. Rest of North America 7. Future of North America Carbon Black Market 8. Competitive Landscape 9.

Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/c8mwfv/assessment_of) has announced the addition of the "Assessment of Indonesia's Rubber Industry Analysis 2015" report to their offering. The report Assessment of Indonesia's Rubber Industry Analysis 2015' highlights key dynamics ofIndonesia's rubber sector. The potential of the sector has been investigated along with key challenges.The current market scenario and future prospects of the sector has also been studied. The report contains profiles of key players including Bridgestone Corp, Michelin, Goodyear, Continental A.G. and Sumitomo Rubber Industries Ltd.The report contains latest verbatim of industry experts. The global market is currently in its fourth year of surplus of natural rubber. The excess supply situation has caused stocks to pile high and prices are falling steadily. It is expected that global surplus by the year 2020 will be approximately 1 million tons of natural rubber and 3 million tons of synthetic rubber.World demand for natural rubber, which is primarily used to manufacture tires, is cooling down due to the economic downturn in China. Asia accounts for 93% of the world natural rubber production with Thailand being the largest producer followed by Indonesia and Vietnam. Other large rubber producers in the region include India, China and Malaysia. China is the world's largest consumer of natural rubber followed by India and the United States. Increasing consumption of tyres and industrial rubber products is expected to boost the global demand for natural rubbers. Indonesia is the second largest rubber producer globally behind Thailand. While the industry is faced with challenges such as low production and poor infrastructure, growing rubber demand from developing economies is expected to boost the market in 2015. Indonesia is the second largest natural rubber producer globally. The industry is currently experiencing oversupply with demand having slowed down particularly from China which is the largest buyer of rubber in the world. Sumatra is the key natural rubber producing area in Indonesia accounting for two-thirds of the rubber latex harvested followed by Kalimantan, Sulawesi and Java. 85% of the rubber producers are smallholders and they contribute 81% to the national output. Actively supporting the sector, the International Rubber Consortium, which is a body representing rubber producers Thailand, Indonesia and Malaysia, has recently recommended the commodity not be sold at the current low prices.
