Medical Polymers Market to Reach US$17.13 Billion by 2020 owing to Growing Consumer Awareness

A recently released report from Transparency Market Research (TMR) forecasts that the global medical polymers market, will grow at a CAGR of 8.3% between 2014 and 2020. TMR, a market intelligence firm based in the U.S., states that the global medical polymers market will reach a value of US$17.13 billion by 2020, from US$9.80 billion in 2013. The report, titled ‘Medical Polymers Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast, 2014 - 2020’, is available for sale on the company website. 
According to this market research report, factors such as rising consumer awareness, developments in the area of polymer science, and a rapidly growing global population play a key role in the growth of the global medical polymers market. The demand for medical polymers has been on the rise owing to their widespread application as substitutes for glass and metal in the production of medical equipment and devices.

With the passage of time, the demand for medical polymers is anticipated to increase. Greater preference for home healthcare treatments and a growing geriatric population also boosts the demand for medical polymers. The TMR report segments the global medical polymers market on the basis of product types, application, and geography.Biodegradable plastics, medical elastomers, and fibers and resins are the key types of products that dominate the global medical polymers market. In 2013, the segment of fibers and resins held the largest share in the overall market. The biodegradable plastics market is expected to grow robustly during the forecast period.

The demand for biocompatible materials is likely to gain momentum in the forthcoming years owing to their increasing applicability in implants. Application-wise, the global medical polymers market is categorized into medical packaging, medical devices and equipment, and others. 

With a share of more than 40%, North America was the largest player in the medical polymers market in 2013. Europe holds the second highest share of this market after North America. Ongoing trends, however, indicate that Asia Pacific will witness rapid growth in demand for medical polymers in the forthcoming years. Some of the factors that will stimulate the demand for medical polymers in the Asia Pacific market are high demand in China and India owing to stringent regulations of the healthcare product market.
This research report lays emphasis on the growing popularity of biodegradable components in medical implants, which can prove to be beneficial for market players operating in the global medical polymers market. However, fluctuating input prices and stringent regulatory measures put in place by several governments act as glaring challenges to the global market for medical polymers. Some of the key companies in the global medical polymers market are Celanese Corporation, Eastman Chemical Company, Evonik Industries AG, The Dow Chemical Company, Formosa Plastics Corporation USA, and Victrex plc.

Superabrasives (Turning, Cutting, Buffing, Drilling, Boring, Grinding) Market Research Report 2025

An abrasive is a material which molds or provides finishing to a work piece through a process which includes buffing, grinding, cutting, as well as polishing. Abrasion typically depends on the difference in the hardness of the material and the abrasive (with the latter being the harder of the two). Unlike regular abrasion where any two solid materials that repeatedly rub against each other tend to wear away, superabrasives possess the kind of hardness that enables them to stay usable for a longer period of time. On the basis of hardness, the top two superabrasives include diamond and cubic boron nitride (CBN). Industrial diamonds used as superabrasives are exceptionally hard materials. However, they display several technological limitations. For instance, when a diamond comes in contact with a ferrous alloy such as steel or a nickel superalloy, the resulting formation of carbide leads to its abrasion. Also, a diamond-containing tool can only be used at moderate temperatures a...

Industrial Lubricants Market: Strong Demand Across Automotive Industry, Trends To 2025

Lubricants refer to the organic or inorganic material primarily being use to decrease friction between two surfaces in contact. Lubricants play a key role in several industries as well as in commercial and residential sectors. One of their most common uses is in the lubrication of bearings and gears, allowing for their easy movement at high speeds, without loss in energy, prevent excessive generation of heat, or most importantly, prevent damage that would be caused otherwise. Industrial lubricants are, therefore, essential in enhancing the overall efficiency of a machine that contains moving parts in contact with one another. The global industrial lubricants market is currently expanding at a solid growth rate, driven by several factors and spearheaded by the likes of BP, Total, Chevron Corporation, ExxonMobil, and Shell.

Rapid Prototyping Market - Rapidly Gaining Importance in Aerospace Sector, Research By 2024

Rapid prototyping is a technique in which the physical modeling of a design is done with the help of specialized machining technology. It was developed initially in the mid-1980s, the principle used in this technology is of solid modeling with the help of computer programs (i.e. CAD). Solid modeling makes use of computer aided-design (CAD) data to completely describe not just the external shape of parts or equipment, but its interior volume as well as the outside surfaces. The computer model is sliced into thin layers and the part of the product or commodity to be modelled or developed as per the requirement, is eventually fabricated by adding layers onto each other. Obtain Report Details @   http://www.transparencymarketresearch.com/rapid-prototyping-market.html The primary benefit of the system is that almost any shape can be manufactured using computerized programs. Time and money savings vary from 50% to 90% compared to conventional systems. Types of rapid proto...
