A class of polymer known as a "hydrogel" can retain vast volumes of water or other biological fluids because to its three-dimensional network of hydrophilic polymers. Hydrogel is a type of polymer material made from a network of cross-linked polymer chains that contain a significant amount of water. In its natural state, it is a soft, jelly-like material that can be molded into various shapes and sizes. It has a wide variety of uses, from medical applications to food production to water filtration, and even for recreational use such as water slides. The increasing demand for hydrogel is driven by its unique properties and multiple uses in various industries.

The growth of the hydrogel market can be attributed to the increase in healthcare expenditure and rise in demand for personal hygiene products. Consumers are gradually opting for contact lenses and improved quality of healthcare services, which, in turn, has contributed to the rise in demand for hydrogel products. The hydrogel market is estimated to be USD 11.43 billion in 2017 and is projected to reach USD 15.33 billion by 2022, at a CAGR of 6.04% from 2017 to 2022. ...

In medical applications, the hydrogel is used in wound dressings, contact lenses, and as a medium to deliver drugs or nutrients to the body. It can also be used in 3D printing to create artificial organs and tissues. In food production, a hydrogel is used to improve the texture and mouthfeel of food products, as well as to keep food products moist. In water filtration, hydrogel is used to absorb and filter out pollutants, heavy metals, and other contaminants. Finally, in recreational activities, hydrogel is used to create water slides and other water-based activities.

Based on composition, the polyacrylate segment of the hydrogel market is projected to grow at the highest CAGR from 2017 to 2022. The growth of this segment can be attributed to the rising popularity of polyacrylate hydrogels owing to their superior properties, such as water holding capacity, transparency, and elasticity. These hydrogels are increasingly utilized in various products, such as paper diapers, sanitary towels, inflatable flood sandbags, protection materials, waterproof tapes, expansion toys, and water retaining gel for plants.
