Market Overview:
The global cross-linked super absorbent polymer market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% from 2018 to 2030. The growth in the market can be attributed to the increasing demand for personal care products and agriculture and horticulture applications. Cross-linked super absorbent polymers are used in various applications such as personal care, agriculture and horticulture, medical, automotive, and others. They are used as a water absorbent in diapers, sanitary napkins, bandages, wound dressings etc., which helps in retaining moisture for a longer period of time.
Product Definition:
A cross-linked super absorbent polymer is a manmade material used in disposable diapers and other absorbent hygiene products. Cross-linking creates links between individual polymer chains, making the material more water-absorbent. This makes it an ideal choice for products that need to quickly soak up liquid, such as disposable diapers and feminine hygiene pads.
Natural:
Natural cross-linked super absorbent polymer (N-CSP) is a highly water-dense polymer, which has the ability to absorb up to 10 times its own weight in water. It consists of repeat units of polysaccharide chains linked by calcium or sodium sulphate or gypsum.
Synthetic:
Synthetic cross-linked super absorbent polymer (SAP) is a manmade polymer, which has the ability to absorb huge amount of liquids. It is majorly used in baby diapers and adult incontinence products. Synthetic cross-linked SAP market can be segmented on the basis of product types such as A, B, C & D where A type SAP have higher absorption capacity than B type and so on.
Application Insights:
The global demand for cross-linked superabsorbent polymer in agriculture and horticulture application segment accounted for USD 39.0 million in 2016 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of XX% from 2017 to 2030 owing to the high product requirement in this application segment. The agricultural activities mainly take place during the rainy season, which leads to an increase in product demand as well as sales, especially from October till December every year on account of increased farming activities during this period.
The personal care industry is one of the fastest growing industries across the globe due largely to increasing consumer awareness regarding health & hygiene issues coupled with changing lifestyles and rising standards of living globally since 1990s.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific dominated the global market in 2017 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The presence of a large personal care industry coupled with increasing demand for skin-care products is anticipated to drive the regional market growth. China, India, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan and Indonesia are some of the largest personal care product manufacturers in Asia Pacific region.
The agriculture sector in Asia Pacific has been one of the most important contributors towards GDPs across various countries owing to its huge contribution towards food production as well as economic activities associated with it such as farming and fishing. However, due to lack of proper infrastructure such as fertilizers & pesticides; irrigation systems; mechanized equipment; good agricultural practices (GAPs); etc.; there has been a decline in crop yields which negatively impacts overall GDPs across numerous developing economies including India’s agricultural sector which further weakens their exports thereby impacting cross-linked superabsorbent polymers demand negatively throughout this region.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for absorbent products in hygiene and personal care applications
- Rising awareness about the benefits of using absorbent products over conventional methods
- Growing demand for Cross-linked Super Absorbent Polymer from end-use industries such as medical, agriculture, and construction
- Technological advancements in the production of Cross-linked Super Absorbent Polymer
- Stringent government regulations pertaining to environmental protection
