Market Analytics: Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer - 2020

Market Analytics: Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer - 2020 provides an analysis of the global ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) with forecasts to 2045.  This analysis will identify the issues shaping the industry as well as provide demand, supply and net trade data for 40 countries.

 

EPDM is a commodity elastomer produced from ethylene, propylene and a termonomer such as dicyclopentadiene (DCDP), ethylidene norbornene (ENB) or vinyl norbornene (VNB), which are also produced in steam crackers.  EPDM is rarely used alone.  Rather, this material is usually used in conjunction with a host of other additives that are designed to improve specific properties, reduce cost and improve processability.
