# Butadiene: Relationships

Source page: https://www.materialinsights.org/chemicals/butadiene/links/

Every element and industry that Butadiene is linked to, and how. Each pair has its own card explaining the relationships between the two.

- [Ethylene](https://www.materialinsights.org/links/butadiene-and-ethylene/): Butadiene is almost entirely a by-product of ethylene crackers, so its supply follows cracker runs and feed choice rather than tyre demand. A naphtha cracker yields about seven times more butadiene per tonne of ethylene than an ethane cracker, so the shift to cheap shale and Gulf ethane tightened butadiene supply. *(researched)*
- [Crude oil](https://www.materialinsights.org/links/butadiene-and-crude-oil/): Crude oil is a raw material for butadiene; their prices have moved together.
