Production costs of polyisobutylene and methods for molecular weight control
The production cost of polyisobutylene is mainly influenced by raw material prices and the production process. Isobutylene is usually used as the main raw material, and fluctuations in its price have a direct impact on costs. Molecular weight control is adjusted by changing the type of catalyst, as well as the reaction temperature and pressure. In the market, polyisobutylene has a wide range of applications, such as in the production of lubricant additives and fuel additives, and there is steady growth in market demand for it. .
