Superabsorbent Polymers Market: Introduction
In
terms of value, the global superabsorbent polymers market is anticipated to expand at a
CAGR of 5% from 2020 to 2030 and
cross US$ 15
Bn by 2030. Asia
Pacific dominated the global superabsorbent polymers market in terms of volume
in 2019.
It is estimated to be the leading region of the global superabsorbent polymers
market during the forecast period. The personal care & hygiene sector is
projected to offer lucrative opportunities for the superabsorbent polymers
market in the near future.
Superabsorbent
Polymers Market: Major Drivers and Restraints
Rise
in incidence rate of diseases such as diabetic ulcer, pressure ulcer, and
venous stasis ulcer among the geriatric population has boosted the demand for
advanced injury care products such as superabsorbent polymer products. They are
considered ideal for use in wound dressing applications, due to their high
water content that helps maintain moist wound environment and cool and
non-adherent surface. They also prevent heat absorption and provide comfort to
patients. Thus, proven benefits of superabsorbent polymer products such as
improved water retention ability, controlled release, and preservation of
stored components are anticipated to drive the global superabsorbent polymers
market during the forecast period.

The
increase in usage of superabsorbent polymers in disposable baby diapers and sanitary
products is propelling the global superabsorbent polymers market. These
polymers are added in the form of absorbent layers at the core of the diapers.
This helps them absorb the liquid that is then converted into gel. This
protects the baby from rashes. Furthermore, rise in birth rates has contributed
to the growth in demand for baby diapers. This, in turn, is expected to
significantly boost the superabsorbent polymers market across the globe.
Several
players have taken strategic initiatives, such as capacity expansion, in order
to expand their superabsorbent polymers business, owing to high demand for
superabsorbent polymers in various industrial applications. This is also
projected to boost the superabsorbent polymers market during the forecast period.
For instance, in October
2018, Nippon Shokubai Co., Ltd. expanded its
superabsorbent polymers production capacity at its manufacturing facility at
Zwijndrecht, the Netherlands. The new plant has production capacity of 100,000
tons per year. This move is expected to help the company meet the rising demand
for superabsorbent polymers. The volatility in prices of raw materials is a key
restraint of the global superabsorbent polymers market. Acrylic acid, which is
manufactured from propylene, is a key raw material used in the production of
superabsorbent polymers. Fluctuation in prices of raw materials is a major
concern for manufacturers of superabsorbent polymers, as the price of acrylic
acid is susceptible to fluctuations in crude oil prices.

Superabsorbent
Polymers Market: Prominent Segments
In
terms of value, the sodium polyacrylate segment held major share of the global
superabsorbent polymers market in 2019.
This trend is anticipated to continue during the forecast period, due to
considerable usage of acrylate in construction and medical industries. Based on
application, the hygienic segment constituted a significant share of the global
superabsorbent polymers market in 2019. This
trend is estimated to continue throughout the forecast period. On the other
hand, the non-hygienic segment is expected to expand at a faster pace during
the forecast period.

Competition
Landscape
Major
global manufacturers of superabsorbent polymers include Evonik Industries AG, BASF SE,
Nippon Shokubai Co., Ltd, LG Chem Ltd., Sumitomo Seika Chemicals Co. Ltd, Sanyo
Chemical Industries, and KAO Corporation. The volatility
in raw material prices of the superabsorbent polymers acts as a significant
barrier for new players to enter the market.
