Polymer Gel Market Size, Share and Global Industry Analysis 2023
The polymer gel is a liquid-like wet and soft-solid material that consists of a cross-linked elastic network and a fluid that fills the interstitial spaces of the network. It can undergo large deformation. The long polymer molecules network keeps the liquid intact and confers a solid appearance. It shows a variety of stimuli-responsive actions responding to the external changes in the environment.
According to the analysis, the global polymer gel market is projected to reach USD 16,312.5 million by 2023 at a CAGR of 6.55% during the review period 2017-2023.
The increasing investments in the healthcare sector by the governments in developing countries is projected to drive the growth of the global market. Based on the type, the hydrogel segment accounted for the largest market share of 91.51% in 2017 and is expected to register a healthy CAGR of 6.47% in the coming years.
This is attributed to the surging demand for hydrogels in the medical, personal care, electrical and electronics, and agricultural industries. The aerogel segment is expected to exhibit a high CAGR of 8.69% during the forecast period owing to its extreme porosity, resistance to heat transfer, ultralow density, and superlative energy damping. By raw material, the polyacrylic acid (PAA) segment dominated the global market and was valued at USD 5,472.3 million in 2017 owing to its biodegradability and various applications in the healthcare and agricultural industries.
On the basis of form, the amorphous segment held the largest market share of 38.94% in 2017 due to its increasing applications in wound care solutions, in the healthcare industry. Robust growth in the demand for polymer gels in the cosmetics and personal care industry for cosmetic surgeries and beauty products is expected to favor the market growth.
