In a recently published report, Future Market Insights predicted that between 2022 and 2032, the global shape memory polymer market will grow at a CAGR of 23%. In 2022, the market is expected to be valued at USD 450.4 million. By the end of the projected period, which runs from 2022 to 2032, it is expected that the market would be worth USD 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.
