The global shape memory polymer market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 26.9% between 2022 and 2032, according to a recently published study by Future Market Insights. As of 2022, the market is slated to be valued at US$ 450.4 Million. By the end of the 2022-2032 forecast period, the market is expected to be valued at US$ 3.5 Billion.
Shape memory polymers are smart materials that can change their shape in response to external stimuli. The materials find extensive use in automotive, biomedical and aerospace industry.
Biomedical industry is a key end-user of SMPs as they are employed in producing a plethora of diagnostic and surgical devices such as catheters, sutures, stents, braces, splints, prosthetics and grafts. Thus shape memory polymers (SMPs), as stimuli-responsive materials, have garnered worldwide fame.
Shape memory polymers are also intensively found in the construction industry and find use as self-healing materials in sensors or actuators or structural health monitors and vibration control systems. Their use in kinetic buildings will also hold significance to the industry. This, more so when the government is promoting an eco-friendly zone and green buildings to lower the carbon footprint and protect the environment.
