Global Shape Memory Polymer Market: Overview

The product is the polymeric smart material that has the capability to come back to its original shape after temporary deformation that is triggered as a result of some external conditions like change in the weather or temperature. Shape memory polymers can maintain nearly two to three shapes, while the transition between these shapes can be caused due to temperature. The shape of the product can also be altered through either magnetic or electric field or a solution. Shape memory polymers include thermosets and thermoplastics.

Global Shape Memory Polymer Market: Growth Factors

The massive use of the product for efficient drug delivery in cardiovascular stents, healthcare, splints, orthopedic braces, catheters, and orthodontic braces will steer the growth of shape memory polymer industry over the years ahead. Apart from this, the market is likely to gain traction during the estimated timeline due to the massive product demand across the aerospace and automobile sectors.
