Global Super Absorbent Polymers (SAP) Market Outlook to 2027
Super Absorbent Polymer (SAP) is a material that has high liquid-absorbing capacity due to its cross-linked structure polymer, which avoids dissolution and can absorb liquid up to 100 times of its own weight. According to BlueQuark Research & Consulting, the global Super Absorbent Polymers market is expected to witness a significant growth rate during the forecasted period. Factors like the increased use of Super Absorbent Polymers in the Personal Hygiene Industry due to its properties like non-toxic, non-irritating is expected to propel the future Super Absorbent Polymers market. Further, the usage of Super Absorbent Polymers in the Agricultural industry due to its desirable properties like environmentally friendly, non-corrosive, etc., is estimated to drive the growth of the Global Super Absorbent Polymers market. Moreover, the increasing demand for Super Absorbent Polymers in the Healthcare industry is expected to drive the global Super Absorbent Polymers market. However, high fluctuation in the raw materials prices of Super Absorbent Polymers is likely to obstruct the Global Super Absorbent Polymers Market's growth.
Super Absorbent Polymers is used in baby diapers, adult diapers, sanitary napkins, agricultural products, food packaging, medical equipment, etc.
The Primary use of Super Absorbent Polymers is in the Personal Hygiene Industry. There has been a remarkable increase in the usage of Super Absorbent Polymers in the Personal Hygiene Industry owing to their properties like non-toxic, non-corrosive, non-irritating, environment & user friendly, thereby driving the global Super Absorbent Polymers market. They areprimarily used as absorbents for adult incontinence products, feminine hygiene products, diapers, and similar applications such as personal disposable hygiene products. The most significant property of these products is their capacity to absorb liquid, urine, or blood and this absorption capacity depends on the material of the absorbent pad that consists of a polymer. Polymer used in the absorbent pad is made from fine particles of various acrylic acid derivatives, they act as tiny sponges and can hold a large quantity of water. Diapers is the largest application of super absorbent polymers globally due to the growing infant population. Further, the growing female population and increased awareness of personal hygiene is resulting in the high demand for sanitary napkins, thereby driving the global Super Absorbent Polymers market. These are the factors projected to drive the growth of the Global Super Absorbent Polymers market.
Some of the market's key players are BASF, Chase Corp, Chemtex Specialty Ltd, Evonik Industries, LG Chem among others.
The Asia-Pacific region is expected to be a market leader in the future as it is one of the fastest-growing markets for Super Absorbent Polymers. Factors like increasing population, increase in growing income families, growing infant population, and demand in the domestic and regional markets have elevated the demand for Super Absorbent Polymers in these regions, thereby driving the market in the Asia-Pacific region. China, Japan and India are the primary consumers in Asia-Pacific Region, with China holding a large economic GDP. The use of baby diapers in China was late, but it has grown at a rapid pace over the recent years. Further, factors like the rise of agricultural activities in China due to the rapid increase in domestic and export demand for various agricultural products are estimated to drive the Super Absorbent Polymers market. Further, besides personal hygiene and health care, Super Absorbent Polymers is used in other industries, like food packaging and healthcare. Moreover, Japan houses some of the major players in the Super Absorbent Polymers market, such as Sanyo, Nippon Shokubai, Sumitomo Seika, etc. Factors like these have made Asia-Pacific an essential scope for the global Super Absorbent Polymers market.
In Nov 2020, Nippon Shokubai, LiveDo Corporation (Japan), and Total Care System (Japan) jointly have developed a recycling technology for Super Absorbent Polymers used in diapers.
In March 2021, BASF invested $30.1 Million for its hygiene business.
