Hydrogel Market Share
Polyacrylate hydrogels maintain their dominance in the market as they possess superabsorbent properties
Polyacrylate hydrogels hold a significant share in the hydrogel market, particularly in the consumer goods sector, due to their superabsorbent properties. They are commonly used in personal care products such as diapers and sanitary napkins where high absorbency is crucial and in agriculture as soil conditioners to improve water retention and reduce irrigation needs. Their ability to absorb and retain large volumes of water or aqueous solutions far beyond their own mass makes them invaluable in applications requiring moisture control.
Polyacrylamide hydrogels are expected to witness sizeable growth in the coming years. Polyacrylamide hydrogels play a vital role in water treatment processes. They are used as flocculants in wastewater treatment to aggregate and settle suspended particles, making it easier to remove contaminants from water. This property is essential for both industrial wastewater treatment and municipal water purification systems, contributing to environmental protection and public health.
The agriculture sector largely uses hydrogel due to its unique ability to significantly improve water retention in soil and deliver nutrients efficiently to plants
The agriculture sector occupies a major market share. Hydrogels can increase the water rendition capacity of soils, and the net plant yield, and can also reduce drought impact on plants and enhance soil fertility. Additionally, the surging population growth, rapid climate change, and reduced arable lands have enhanced the demand for high-yield and sustainable agricultural practices, consequently boosting hydrogel demand. Hydrogels can also be engineered to absorb and release nutrients in a controlled manner which allows for more efficient use of fertilisers, reducing runoff and environmental pollution.
The pharmaceutical and healthcare sectors are anticipated to witness robust growth in the hydrogel market in the forecast period due to the unique properties of hydrogels and their compatibility with various medical applications. Hydrogels are extensively used in controlled drug delivery applications due to their ability to encapsulate drugs and release them at a controlled rate. The porous nature of hydrogels allows for the storage and gradual release of therapeutics, which can be tuned by altering the hydrogel's composition. In wound care, hydrogels have become indispensable due to their moisture-retaining properties, which create an optimal moist wound healing environment. This not only accelerates the healing process but also reduces pain and discomfort for the patient.
