Results for tag: "Smart Polymer"

The Smart Polymer market is a subset of the Plastics industry, focusing on the development of polymers with enhanced properties. Smart Polymers are designed to respond to external stimuli such as temperature, pH, light, and electric or magnetic fields. These polymers can be used in a variety of applications, including drug delivery, tissue engineering, and biosensors. Smart Polymers are also used in the automotive, aerospace, and medical industries. Smart Polymers are typically composed of polymers, such as polyethylene, polypropylene, and polystyrene, which are modified with functional groups to give them the desired properties. These functional groups can be used to control the polymer's physical and chemical properties, such as solubility, viscosity, and reactivity. Some companies in the Smart Polymer market include BASF, Dow Chemical, DuPont, Evonik, and Solvay. Show Less Read more
