How frequent is the production of butadiene and what are the end products used?
Any relevant information /references to cover the worldwide production and essential uses would help?

The production of butadiene is linked to the ethylene production from steam crackers.
Higher feeds produce that and as I know it is China which has largest production with high domestic use and export potential as well.
End products are rubber, SBR, PBR, and ABS plastics.
There are few good wikis available on this..

Yeah, mainly the rubbers are the end products.
Source is steam cracking.
Worldwide production idea can be searched online.
