Global Smart Polymers Market 2016-2020

About Smart Polymers

Smart polymers are polymers that change their properties with respect to the environment they are in. These polymers react to external stimuli and adjust to evolving conditions. These polymers experience reversible physical and chemical changes in response to small external stimuli in the natural conditions, for example, temperature, pH, light, magnetic and electric field, ionic components, and biological molecules. These stimuli-sensitive polymers are either synthetic or natural.

Technavio’s analysts forecast the global smart polymers market to grow at a CAGR of 19.98% during the period 2016-2020.
