HR-PIB: Powering Performance in Modern IndustryIn this episode, we explore the growing market for highly reactive polyisobutylene (HR-PIB)—a versatile synthetic rubber polymer prized for its reactivity and durability. From lubricants and adhesives to sealants and fuel additives, HR-PIB plays a vital role across automotive, industrial, and pharmaceutical sectors. We also spotlight the 2019 partnership between DAELIM, Aramco, and Total to build an 80,000 ton/year PIB plant in Saudi Arabia, marking the Kingdom’s entry into PIB production and signaling long-term growth in the region’s petrochemical capabilities.
