Product Definition:
A synthetic absorbent polymer (SAP) is a water-soluble polymer that can absorb and retain large amounts of liquid, making it an effective tool for managing fluid loss. SAPs are commonly used in diapers, feminine hygiene products, and medical bandages to soak up excess moisture and protect the wearer from infection or discomfort. SAPs can also be added to soil to help improve water retention and increase crop yields.
Ethylene Maleic Anhydride Copolymer:
Ethylene maleic anhydride copolymer (EMAC) is a synthetic polymer with an amine group. It has been developed as a replacement for polyacrylamide in super absorbent polymers on account of its superior physical properties, such as high molecular weight and low glass transition temperature.
The global ethylene maleic anhydride copolymer market was valued at USD 848.1 million in 2016.
Polyacrylamide Copolymer:
Polyacrylamide copolymer is a synthetic polymer with cross-linked network. It has high molecular weight and is made up of acrylic acid and polyacrylic acid units. Polyacrylamide copolymer (PAA) has applications in the manufacturing of super absorbent polymers due to its superior physical properties such as low density, high molecular weight, heat resistance, chemical resistance among others.
Application Insights:
The diaper application segment led the global market and accounted for more than 40.0% share of the total revenue in 2017. Diapers are considered as one of the most important baby products along with infant care items such as changing table, bathtub, and bedding. The increasing population across the globe is expected to be a major factor driving this segment over the forecast period.
Adult incontinence products were estimated to be worth more than USD 1 billion in 2017 on account of high demand from developed countries due to rising geriatric population groups suffering from various bladder & bowel problems owing to which they opt for adult diapers manufactured using synthetic and bio-absorbent polymers that act as natural absorbents for urine.
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 population base, increasing disposable income levels, rising awareness regarding health & hygiene issues are some of the key factors responsible for regional growth. China and India are among the largest consumers of SAP products owing to their high unmet needs in various applications such as adult incontinence products and diapers.
North America is also expected to witness significant growth over the coming years on account of increasing R&D activities by major companies for development new generation bio-absorbent polymers with improved characteristics such as better water absorption capacity while maintaining similar level of polymerization as compared to current bio-absorbent polymers used worldwide.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for SAP in hygiene products such as diapers and sanitary napkins
- Rising awareness about the benefits of SAP in agriculture and horticulture sector
- Growing demand for SAP from water treatment and waste management industries
- Rising popularity of green buildings that require use of SAP for moisture control and insulation purposes
- Technological advancements that are making synthetic polymers more efficient
