Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene Market Analysis
The global acrylonitrile butadiene styrene market size reached US$ 30.2 Billion in 2023. By 2032, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 50.5 Billion, at a projected CAGR of 5.90% during 2023-2032.
- The rising demand for acrylonitrile butadiene styrene due to the burgeoning automotive sector is impelling the market growth. Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene is commonly employed for automotive parts, such as dashboard components, seat backs, seat belt components, handles, door loners, pillar trim, and instrument panels. It is used as a replacement for metal in vehicles due to its durable and lightweight properties. The increasing adoption of vehicles due to changing lifestyles of individuals is supporting the market growth. As per the Association of European Automobile Manufacturers (ACEA), 85.4 million motor vehicles were produced across the globe in 2022, indicating an increase of 5.7% as compared to 2021.
- The acrylonitrile butadiene styrene demand is further propelled by its employment in the electronics industry. Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene is used to manufacture enclosures for various electronic components, such as power supplies, circuit boards, and control panels. It is also beneficial for manufacturing casings and housings for electronic devices, such as gaming consoles, computer peripherals, televisions, and household appliances. It has high electrical resistivity and low thermal coefficient value, making it an essential low-cost electronic substrate material. The rising demand for electronic devices is catalyzing the demand for acrylonitrile butadiene styrene. For instance, the production of electronic goods in India was US$ 80 Billion in 2021-2022 as reported by the Press Information Bureau (PIB).
- The escalating demand for acrylonitrile butadiene styrene-based pipes and fittings, as they are easier to install and do not rot, rust, or corrode, is offering a positive market outlook. These pipes also withstand earth loads and shipping and are resistant to mechanical damage, even at lower temperatures.
- Apart from this, the acrylonitrile butadiene styrene is becoming popular in three-dimensional (3D) printing, a process that creates 3D objects by layering materials on top of each other. Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene is a common material for 3D printing on account of its strong and durable properties.

Product Description
Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene is an impact-resistant engineering thermoplastic. It can be easily injection-molded, blow-molded, or extruded in a variety of shapes and sizes. It can withstand higher temperatures without deforming or melting. It has a higher melting point as compared to polyvinyl chloride (PVC). It is also resistant to chemical and ultraviolet (UV) light degradation.
Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene provides enhanced dimensional stability and has a low melting point. It assists in offering high rigidity and resistance to impact, abrasion, and strain.
Apart from this, acrylonitrile butadiene styrene is widely used to manufacture numerous medical devices, such as syringes, inhalers, laboratory equipment, and drug delivery devices. Its biocompatibility, sterilizability, and ease of processing, makes it a preferred choice for medical applications.
