Hydrogel is composed of a 3D network structure which can hold up to large volumes of water and is manufactured using polyvinyl alcohol, sodium polyacrylate, acrylate polymers, and several other polymers. Hydrogel with an optimum degree of crosslinking provides strong and elastic properties which are used as sanitary purposes, medical electrode in ECG, and also in breast implants.

Future Drivers and Constraints Affecting the Market Growth

Hydrogel is known for its lubricious, permeable, viscoelastic, and multifunctional properties which provides comfort, flexibility, and biocompatibility. Owing to the growing production in contact lenses, personal hygiene, agriculture, and healthcare products, the market is anticipated to expand during the assessment period. Moreover, the healthcare sector along with the hygiene sector is set to witness the highest growth rate owing to the consumption of products such as baby diapers, perfumes, and several others. Increasing awareness regarding the availability of hydrogel formulations has galvanized R&D investment to develop new products which is supposed to be viewed as a bellwether for the growth of global hydrogel market over the review period.

Hydrogels are also used in hygiene and personal care sector due to its good oxygen permeability, soft and tissue-like properties, superior biocompatibility, water absorption, and microporous structure. With the increase in hygiene awareness, aging population and growing infant, and rising demand for feminine hygiene products is expected to spur the market growth over the forecast period.

Meanwhile, high cost related to complex production process of hydrogel coupled with environmental hazards from disposable synthetic hydrogel products are some of the major factors restraining the growth of the market globally.
