ncreasing adoption of Superabsorbent Polymer across developing countries along with the growing population across the globe will proliferate the global Superabsorbent Polymer industry
The global Superabsorbent Polymer market size is anticipated to reach around USD 46 billion by 2025. Superabsorbent polymer is a polymer comprising hydrophilic networks to sustain and absorb large amount of solution or water. These are made from cellulose along with chemically improved starch and other associated polymers like polyethylene oxide (PEO) and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), which exhibits high affinity for the liquid. SAP polymer possess cross-linked structure owing to which it becomes absorbs water through a swelling process.
Increasing hygiene awareness along with growing adoption for adult diapers developing countries is driving the industry upsurge. Furthermore, the rising focus toward the development of bio-based absorbent to reduce environment pollution is fueling the industry size. Moreover, its surging application across agriculture sector is anticipated to positively sway the business landscape over the forecast timeline.
