Global Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer (EPDM) Market Definition

EPDM is also known as ethylene propylene diene monomer (M-class) rubber. It is a copolymer of ethylene, propylene and a small amount of non-conjugated diene monomers (3 - 9 percent) which provide cross-linking sites for vulcanization. It is an elastomer which is characterized by a wide range of applications Moreover, EPDM is largely suitable for application in electrical insulation, gaskets, and lamination. This is owing to its high resistance to tearing, solvents, abrasives, and temperatures. It has excellent elasticity at low and high temperatures and has excellent electrical insulating properties and good resistance to common diluted acids, ketones, and alkaline.

The M class includes rubbers having a saturated chain of the polymethylene type. At present, dicyclopentadiene (DCPD), ethylidene norbornene (ENB), and vinyl norbornene (VNB) are the dienes that are used in the manufacture of EPDM rubbers. EPDM rubber is almost related to ethylene propylene rubber, a copolymer of ethylene and propylene. EPDM is used as a replacement for thermoplastic olefins (TPO) and thermoplastic vulcanisates (TPV) in the plastic manufacturing industry. Advancing technology in the production of plastic modification further encourages the growth of the EPDM market.
