Hydrogel Market by Raw Material Type, Composition, Form, Application, Region – Global Forecast to 2022 – Research and Markets

DUBLIN–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The "Hydrogel
Market by Raw Material Type, Composition, Form, Application, Region –
Global Forecast to 2022" report has been added to Research
and Markets' offering.

The hydrogel market is estimated to be USD 11.43 billion in 2017 and is
projected to reach USD 15.33 billion by 2022, at a CAGR of 6.04% from
2017 to 2022. The rising disposable income of individuals, growing
population, and increasing awareness regarding hygiene are factors
contributing to the growth of the hydrogel market in emerging economies,
such as Asia Pacific and Latin America. However, the changing physical
and chemical properties of hydrogels are acting as a restraint to the
growth of this market.

The polyacrylate composition segment led the hydrogel market in 2016;
this segment is projected to retain its leading position through 2022.
Polyacrylate is the most commonly used hydrogel with significant
characteristics, such as transparency, elasticity, and water locking
ability. The polyacrylate hydrogel is extensively used in various
products, such as paper diapers, sanitary towels, inflatable flood
sandbags, protection materials, waterproof tapes, expansion toys, and
water retaining gel for plants.

Based on application, the hydrogel market has been segmented into wound
care, personal care & hygiene, drug delivery, agriculture, contact lens,
and others. The personal care & hygiene segment led the hydrogel market
in 2016. Acrylate-based superabsorbent hydrogels are used in personal
care products, owing to their ability to absorb fluids. Thus, hydrogels
are increasingly utilized in personal care products, thereby
contributing to the growth of the personal care & hygiene segment.
