Medical Styrenic Block Copolymer Market size was valued at USD 657 million in 2023 and is poised to grow at a CAGR of 4.5% from 2024-2030. Medical styrenic block copolymer (SBC) is a thermoplastic elastomer that has high performance to improve the application of a product. Some examples of styrenic block copolymers are hydrogenated styrenic block copolymers, styrene-isoprene-styrene, and styrene-butadiene. The properties of SBC are crystal clarity, thermal stability, high resistance, and no toxic or mutagenic possibility. SBC is used widely in polymer adjustments, footwear, wires and cable, medical devices, etc.

High elasticity, manufacturability, and strength of SBC make them suitable for moldable compounds, the non-toxic and temperature resistance properties of SBC help in producing efficient medical and healthcare products are some primary factors that can boost the global medical styrenic block copolymer market. Apart from this, with increasing cases of chronic diseases, demand for blood bags in the healthcare sector is also increasing which can accelerate the market in the future. Another factor that drives the medical styrenic block copolymer market is the increasing demand for the replacement of metallic devices with polymer-based devices

Moreover, the post-pandemic situation has created a demand for respiratory and oxygen masks, rising concern among people about health, continuous research, and development and launch of new products can drive market growth. However, some factors such as the low resistance of SBC as compared to hydrocarbons, and increasing fluctuation in the raw material cost can restrain the growth of the market. Moreover, growth in research and development actions in the market and technological advancements in production methods can produce lucrative opportunities for the global market.  

Medical Styrenic Block Copolymer Market Key Development:

In January 2021, a new styrene-ethylene-butylene-styrene (SEBS) block polymer was launched by LYC Chemical Corporation. SEBS is a high molecular weight compound that is used for medical, automobile, and adhesive applications.

Medical Styrenic Block Copolymer Market Dynamics

One of the major reasons for the growth of the global medical styrenic block copolymer market is the increasing demand for respiratory devices and oxygen masks after the COVID-19 pandemic. As Sars-COV-2 affects the lungs and the respiratory system, demand for respiratory equipment, ventilators, and oxygen masks increased rapidly. Some properties of SBC such as high clarity, durability, flexibility, tensile strength, and resilience makes them ideal to be used in medical tubing, syringe plunger, medical IV bags, transparent medical bottles, oxygen mask, etc. Moreover, SBC can be merged with a wide variety of polymers such as polypropylene which can further enhance the use of SBC in the medical industry.
