Global Smart Polymers Market – Expected to Reach $3.9 Billion by 2023 – Research and Markets

DUBLIN–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The "Smart
Polymers – Global Market Outlook (2017-2023)" report has been
added to Research and Markets' offering.

The Global Smart Polymers market is expected to grow from $1.52 billion
in 2016 to reach $3.98 billion by 2023 with a CAGR of 14.7%.

Application of shape memory polymer in automotive industry, requirement
of efficient technologies over existing ones, beneficial property of
phase transition and the usage of smart polymers for controlled drug
delivery are the crucial factors that fuel the growth of the market. On
the contrary, high cost associated with the use of smart polymers and
changes over in the industry of healthcare are the key factors to hamper
the growth of the market in the forthcoming years.

Among the Polymer types, the shape memory polymers segment hold the
highest share in the market, because of the broad range of applications
like inexpensive, reusable custom molds, deployable components and
dynamic configurable parts. North America led the global market with
largest share. It is likely to remain in the leading position throughout
the forecast period due to technological advancements. Asia-Pacific is
expected to witness the fastest growth as a result of the rapid
industrialization of the main product end-users primarily automotive,
textile, and electrical & electronics sector.
