Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer (EPDM) Rubber Market- Applications, Types and Gross Margin Analysis to 2023

Global ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) rubber market is segmented on the basis of product, end users, and geography. EPDM (ethylene propylene diene monomer) is a high density synthetic rubber that is very durable. It is conventionally manufactured through the polymerization of solution. EPDM is formed using propylene and ethylene in the presence of catalysts and dienes.

EPDM has several features that make it especially appropriate for electrical insulation, gaskets, and lamination. EPDM is finished to form an extremely smooth surface. Ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) has a great resistance to tearing, abrasives, solvents, and high temperatures. It has tremendous flexibility at low and high temperatures. EPDM has excellent electrical insulating properties and good resistance to ordinary diluted acids, alkaline, and ketones.


Ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) rubbers are basically employed in the production of light weight components such as automotive interiors and automotive bumpers in the automotive industry. In the automotive industry, increasing demand for EPDM in different regions is likely to propel the ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) rubber market in the upcoming years. EPDM rubber is also used in construction, plastics, electrical, and the other end user industries. The high demand for ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) rubber is expected to grow in the years to come considering extensive growth of the construction and automotive markets.

The “automotive industry” is a main consumer of EPDM market. EPDM is used in the production of brake parts, radiator, windshield wipers, glass-run channel, tubing, body sealing, weather-stripping, engine mounts, roofing membrane, thermoplastic vulcanisates, and motor oil additive application in automotive industry. Also, EPDM is used in making vehicle glazing systems, o-rings, moisture barriers, valves, and pumps.
