Success of super absorbent polymers in hygiene and wound care products, growing use of contact lenses and availability of numerous chemistries and formulations are the major factors driving the market growth. The use of hydrogels in wound care is anticipated to increase rapidly, owing to benefits such as convenience of use, water retention efficiency, and improved time efficiency during medical procedures and wound closure. Increasing awareness about the available hydrogel formulations have stimulated product-focused R&D investment to develop new hydrogel products, which is anticipated to drive the world hydrogel market during the forecast period. However, high costs associated with complex production process and potential environment hazards from disposable synthetic hydrogel products are the major restraining factors for the growth of world hydrogel market.

The polyacrylamide hydrogel segment is anticipated to grow rapidly during the forecast period on account of the increased adoption of disposable sanitary products in the market. Silicone-modified hydrogels (SiH) segment would continue to dominate the market as they are mainly used in the production of daily disposable soft contact lenses. However, there are ongoing research activities conducted by contact lens producers to develop alternative products, owing to the toxicity concerns associated with silicone-modified hydrogels, thus would experience slower growth rates. Impregnated gauze is projected to be the fastest growing product segment, owing to increased awareness about products and competitive pricing offered by key market players, such as 3M Company, as compared to that of traditional wound care products.
