expected to reach USD 8.26 billion by 2020, according to a new study by Grand
View Research, Inc. Growth of major end use industries including
construction/infrastructure and footwear, especially in high growth markets of
China, India and Brazil is expected to be a key factor for SBC market

product segment and accounted for 76.2% of total market volume in 2013. SBS was
followed by HSBC (Hydrogenated Styrenic Block Copolymers) which accounted for

growing product segment, at an estimated CAGR of 5.3% from 2014 to 2020.
