About Synthetic Rubber

Synthetic Rubber – Product Overview

Synthetic Rubber is a critical raw material used across the automotive, tire, footwear, industrial rubber, and polymer processing industries. Engineered to deliver consistent performance, durability, and process stability, synthetic rubbers such as Styrene-Butadiene Rubber (SBR) and Polybutadiene Rubber (PBR) form the backbone of modern rubber compounding.

SIMONTCO supplies a comprehensive portfolio of SBR and PBR grades, sourced from reliable petrochemical producers and delivered to international markets with consistent quality and professional trade execution.

Styrene-Butadiene Rubber (SBR)

Oil-Extended SBR Grades

(SBR 1712, 1705, 1721, 1723)

Oil-extended SBR grades contain controlled amounts of processing oil, improving processability, flexibility, and cost efficiency. These grades are widely used in:

  • Tire tread and sidewall compounds
  • Automotive rubber components
  • Conveyor belts and hoses
  • Footwear soles
  • General-purpose rubber goods

Key advantages:

  • Improved mixing and processing behavior
  • Enhanced flexibility and abrasion resistance
  • Cost-effective formulation for high-volume production

Non-Oil (Dry) SBR Grades
(SBR 1500, 1502, 1507)

Non-oil-extended SBR grades offer higher purity and formulation flexibility, making them suitable for applications requiring precise compound control.

Common applications include:

  • Tire carcass and technical rubber goods
  • Adhesives and sealants
  • Rubber sheets and molded products
  • Footwear and industrial components

Key advantages:

  • Excellent mechanical strength
  • Stable aging properties
  • Flexible compounding with customer-selected oils and additives

Polybutadiene Rubber (PBR)

PBR Grades Supplied by SIMONTCO

(PBR 1220 and PBR 1202)

Polybutadiene Rubber (PBR) is valued for its high elasticity, low rolling resistance, and excellent abrasion resistance, making it essential in high-performance rubber applications.

PBR 1220

  • High cis-1,4 content
  • Excellent resilience and wear resistance
  • Widely used in tire tread and sidewall formulations

PBR 1202

  • Balanced mechanical and dynamic properties
  • Good processability
  • Suitable for tire compounds, rubber blends, and industrial rubber goods

PBR is often blended with SBR and natural rubber to enhance durability and performance.
