Medical Styrenic polymers market will surpass US$1.5 bln by 2024, as per Global Market Insights, Inc. North America will contribute substantially towards global revenue as massive expansion of medical industry propels the regional growth over 2017-2024. Pressing need to substitute plastics including PVC in the medical industry owing to its hazardous environmental implications will drive medical styrenic polymers market size by 2024. PVC is extensively utilized in the healthcare industry to create devices for storing IV solutions, blood/medicine containers, tubes and connectors owing to brilliant clarity and ability to withstand broad range of temperature conditions. However, significant amount of toxic component released from PVC which may contaminate IV fluids and migrate into human body has led to formulation of strict regulations to gradually replace these products with styrene plastic which is eco-friendly and plasticizer free making it desirable across medical & healthcare industry.
范式从金属医疗设备转移到聚合物设备，这是由于其理想属性包括设计灵活性，更好的身体特征，轻巧的体重和成本效率将为医学造型性造型聚合物市场尺寸做出重大贡献。此外，对较小尺寸的医疗尺寸的偏好增加了设备以及复杂的功能将导致到2024年的产品需求不断提高。这主要是由于塑料的微型塑料性质很容易产生高耐受性的小组件。与其在业务中现有的同行相比，产品价格很高，在不久的将来可能会阻碍医学造型聚合物市场的规模。例如，与苯乙烯聚合物相比，聚乙烯的增长速度更快，因为其价格较低。然而，增加65岁以上的人口，以及针对医疗保健行业中传统塑料和金属设备的技术进步和严格的法规将为预计时间咒语带来大量的医疗型聚合物市场规模。
Polystyrene accounted for the largest chunk of medical styrenic polymer market share in 2016. The product is majorly used in manufacturing medical devices, equipment, packaging, etc. due to its rigid and cost-effective nature. Furthermore, excellent physical attributes including transparency, easy availability in several colors is likely to stimulate medical styrenic polymer market size for the segment by 2024. ABS is amongst one of the fastest growing segment for medical applications owing to its unique combination of properties including easily colored, excellent finish and high-quality gloss. Moreover, it exhibits brilliant chemical resistance to heat and chemicals which will benefit in achieving promising growth for the medical styrenic polymer market size in the coming years.
医疗仪器细分市场占据了最高的市场份额，预计将在预计的时间咒语中注册CAGR接近7.5％。由于针对PVC使用的严格规定，增加产品用于制造设备和设备的用途可能会在2024年对医学造型聚合物市场规模做出明显的贡献。在未来几年中，手术/骨科窗帘，耐心的礼服，敷料，逐渐取代医疗行业的常规塑料使用。预计到2024年，亚太地区将成为该市场增长最快的地区。这将归功于增加医疗保健伦理和环境友好的物质用途，用于广泛的医疗应用，随后将使区域医学苯乙烯聚合物市场的规模增加2024年。

根据锡安的市场研究,在医药工业上ry, styrenic polymers are used in the medical devices such as tubes, connectors, IV spikes, equipment housing, bags, liquid delivery systems, and medical packaging. Polystyrene, SAN, ABS, and styrenic block polymers such as SEBS and SBS are the common styrenic polymers that are used for manufacturing medical devices and packaging, thus contributing to the global market growth. Polystyrene is the widely used styrenic polymer in the medical applications while ABS co-polymer dominates the styrenic market. The processing of styrenic materials can be flexible as well as rigid as per the requirement of the end-user. Styrenic polymers provide advantages in design and development of medical parts and devices owing to their flexibility, hence widely used in the market. Additional properties such as unique bonding polarity, chemical inertness, and aesthetic and physical properties are driving this market. The fact that styrenic polymers are costly as compared to other medical polymers such as polyethylene and polyvinyl chloride may hamper the market growth. North America dominated the market for styrenic polymers for the medical applications. Asia Pacific and Europe followed North America in terms of the usage of styrenic polymers in medical applications. In the coming years, the market will be ruled by Asia Pacific owing to the rapid developments in the medical field and the growing population. The growth in the infrastructure industry will make the Asia-Pacific region to become the largest consumer of the styrenic polymers market. The production of styrenic polymers is done by the polymerization of styrene monomers and chemical compounds such as butadiene, acrylonitrile, and others. Owing to the increasing applications such as in packaging, automotive, building and construction, and appliances, the production of styrene-based derivatives is a growing trend. The traditional metallic devices are now being replaced by polymers that can be processed easily, hence the medical plastics market is expanding significantly. The polymers that contain styrene as the main component are known as styrenic polymers. Styrene is produced from ethylene and benzene. The most common styrenic polymer is polystyrene. The physical and chemical properties of styrenic copolymers depend on other monomers in the styrenic polymer chain.
On the basis of type, the global styrenic polymers market is categorized into acrylonitrile butadiene styrene, methyl-methacrylate butadiene styrene, styrene methyl-methacrylate, styrene ethylene butylene styrene, polystyrene, styrene acrylonitrile, methyl-methacrylate acrylonitrile butadiene styrene, and styrene butadiene styrene。
Based on the applications, the global market is classified into medical, building and construction, electrical and electronics, automotive industry, consumer goods, marine accessories, and packaging.
