Intelligent
Polymers Market: Overview
Intelligent
polymers, also known as smart polymers or stimuli-responsive
polymers, are high-performance polymers that are sensitive to the
slightest environmental changes. These change according to the
temperature, humidity, pH, and electrical, or magnetic field. They
are synthesized by combining reactive functional groups to backbone
chains during polymerization. Based on the selection of backbone
chain and functional group, intelligent polymers possess different
properties such as mechanical, chemical, electrical, and optical.

They
are flexible, easy to color, strong, easy to mold, and tough.
Intelligent polymers are primarily used in the production of
hydrogels, biodegradable packaging, and biomedical engineering
products. They are also employed in the manufacture of daily-usage
products such as nappies, helmets, plastic bags, plastic bottles, and
chewing gums.
Based
on physical features, intelligent polymers can be classified into
free linear chain solutions, reversible gels covalently cross linked
and polymer chain grafted on a surface. Based on stimuli, these
polymers can be classified into physical stimuli (temperature,
ultrasounds, light, and mechanical stress), chemical stimuli (pH and
ionic strength) and biological stimuli (enzymes and biomolecules).
Intelligent
Polymers Market: Trends Snapshot
Intelligent
polymers are used in various industries such as biomedical, tissue
engineering, textile engineering, biotechnology, and pharmaceuticals.
These polymers are employed in drug delivery systems, where they can
safely transport a pharmaceutical compound into the body, in the
biomedical industry. This is done automatically without the use of
sensors, transducers, switches, or pumps. When the polymers are
exposed to critical temperature they show certain changes in their
properties, which is used in tissue culture application. Certain
category of new polymers are being developed by companies; these have
the ability to return to their original shape from the deformed shape
once exposed to external stimuli. These polymers are known as
shape-memory polymers and are used in textile engineering. Smart
polymers are employed in biotechnology and pharmaceutical
formulations, as they get physically mixed or chemically conjugated
to biomolecules. These are used for yielding other products.
