Carbon black is a pure elemental form of carbon manufactured through incomplete combustion of heavy hydrocarbons. Tire manufacturing facilities constitute the largest end user industry for carbon black, which is used in tire production as a reinforcing filler and pigment. Carbon black is also used to provide strength and rigidity to industrial rubber and in manufacturing belts, hoses, cables and automotive parts. Carbon black powder is further processed to produce carbon black pellets, which find application in specialty products including plastics, paints and coatings, and printing inks. Ongoing revival in the US economy is resulting in higher demand for carbon black from various manufacturing industries. 

According to “United States Carbon Black Market Forecast & Opportunities, 2020”, the market for carbon black in the US is projected to register a CAGR of 4.5% through 2020.
