Water soluble polymers are defined as the substances which when dissolved in water, swell or disperse in such a way that they exhibit specific unique properties. These substances have sufficient numbers of electronegative atoms which tend to form hydrogen bonds when dissolved in water. The dissolution rate of water soluble polymers depend upon the molecular weight of the polymer.
Water soluble polymers are applied in the manufacturing of household products such as detergents which are likely to witness a heightened demand in the forecast period due to the increasing consciousness about hygiene. In line with this, the increasing disposable income, growing expansion of the e-commerce sector, and rapid urbanisation are anticipated to expand the water soluble polymers market share.
The anticipated increase in the demand for pulp and paper to manufacture various downstream products such as paper cups, napkins, LCD screens, shoes, and handbags, among others, are likely to generate a steady demand for water soluble polymers in the coming years. However, based on the water soluble polymers market analysis, stringent regulations of governments across emerging economies aimed towards reducing the impact of chemicals on the environment may limit the growth of some types of water soluble polymers.
