Polybutadiene [MW 3,000]

Polybutadiene (PB) is a synthetic rubber polymer composed of butadiene monomers. It has high elasticity, excellent abrasion resistance, and low-temperature flexibility, making it an essential material in the rubber and plastics industries. Depending on its microstructure, polybutadiene can be categorized into high-cis, low-cis, or high-vinyl forms, each with unique properties.
