SABIC exhibited elastomer products for the tire and automotive industry at the 18th China International Rubber Technology Exhibition

at the 18th China International Rubber Technology Exhibition (rubertech China 2018), SABIC exhibited the latest elastomer products for tires and automotive components, demonstrating its commitment to work together with the entire industry chain to develop the latest solutions to meet the new needs of the industry

on September 19, 2018, Shanghai, China - Saudi Basic Industries Corporation (SABIC), the world's leading diversified chemical enterprise, displayed a series of elastomer products at the 18th China International Rubber Technology Exhibition to cope with changing technological trends and the rising demand of China's tire and automobile industry. The China International Rubber Technology Exhibition for putting cooled plastics into household mixers is one of the most important exhibitions in China's rubber industry. SABIC made its debut at the China International Rubber Technology Exhibition, demonstrating its firm commitment to cooperate with the entire industrial chain to develop solutions that can meet the emerging needs of the automotive and tire industry

sabic's synthetic rubber materials on display at this exhibition include SABIC CIS polybutadiene rubber (BR), which can produce tires with good wet grip, low rolling resistance and high resilience. These characteristics can improve the fuel efficiency of tires and prolong their service life. Another major product is SABIC ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM), which has excellent weather resistance and ozone resistance. It can be widely used in automotive accessories, including sealing strips, hoses, dust covers, transmission belts and other components in the hood

China has always been the world's largest auto market. According to the statistics of the China Automobile Industry Association, the annual output of Chinese automobiles in 2017 reached 28.78 million, accounting for nearly one third of the total global automobile output. In 2025, the annual sales volume of Chinese cars is expected to reach 42million

the continuous growth of automobile production and sales has promoted the demand for tires. In 2017, China's tire sales reached 927million. Based on the rapid growth of the market, tire manufacturers must adapt to the changing automotive technology and strive to meet the needs of the industry, such as producing safer and better tires, while reducing the impact on the environment

sergi monros, vice president of functional polymers and industrial solutions of SABIC Petrochemical strategic business unit, said: "China is one of the fastest-growing automotive markets in the world, and it is also an important strategic market for SABIC. By providing elastomer products to tire and automotive customers in China, we are fulfilling our firm commitment in another way to provide customers with solutions and related support to help them succeed in the market."

sabic has established long-term cooperative relations with major automobile manufacturers and parts suppliers in China. SABIC has an international professional team. Technical experts who are familiar with the local market use their expertise in engineering thermoplastics, polyolefin materials and engineering design to meet the needs of the automotive industry. Today, the business unit is cooperating with customers to develop innovative lightweight solutions and applications to improve fuel efficiency, reduce emissions, and meet a variety of needs, such as design style, safety enhancement, cost reduction and manufacturing difficulty

other core products provided by SABIC for the automotive industry include stamax ™ Long glass fiber filled polypropylene (lgfpp). Major automobile manufacturers in China and other regions are using this special PP material, which is mainly used for large modules and structural applications, such as tailgate components, front-end modules, bumpers, instrument panels, seat structures, Shanxi structures and doors with high coal production. Use stamax ™ After the resin, these parts can be saved. This will be the first attempt to treat the garbage belt since it was found in 1997. It will weigh half of its weight, helping automakers achieve energy conservation and emission reduction. SABIC's production base in Shanghai produces stamax for the Asia Pacific region ™ Resin, and expanded production capacity in 2015. SABIC also has corresponding production bases in Europe and North America to meet the needs of different markets around the world with the same specification. SABIC also provides a range of engineering thermoplastic materials and hybrid materials, including Lexan, the flagship product for vehicle applications ™ Polycarbonate resin
