Butyl rubber is a synthetic rubber made from isobutylene and isoprene. It is a copolymer of isobutylene and isoprene and is known for its excellent impermeability to air and gases, as well as its resistance to oxidation, ozone, and ultraviolet radiation. It is also highly resistant to water, alkalis, and acids. Butyl rubber is used in a variety of applications, including tires, inner tubes, adhesives, sealants, and coatings. It is also used in the production of medical and pharmaceutical products, such as gloves, condoms, and syringes. Butyl rubber is a highly specialized rubber and is not as widely used as other types of rubber. It is more expensive than other types of rubber, but its superior properties make it a preferred choice for certain applications. Some companies in the butyl rubber market include ExxonMobil, Dow Chemical, Lanxess, and Zeon Corporation. Show Less Read more
