Description
Smart polymers or stimuli responsive polymers are high performance materials that are sensitive to external changes such as light, temperature, pH, and electrical/magnetic field. These polymers are tough, easy to process, and flexible. They can retain their normal shape and properties once the stimuli are removed. These polymers can change their physical as well as chemical properties depending on the stimuli. They have numerous application segments such as medical and healthcare, packaging, consumer, aerospace, automotive, oil & gas, and electronics. Among these, the healthcare industry has seen the greatest impact.
Plastics Advisor TechVision Opportunity Engine (TOE) provides intelligence on technologies, products, processes, applications, and strategic insights of various plastics and composites and also analyses their impact across various industries.
The Materials and Coatings cluster tracks research and innovation trends and developments across specialty chemicals, plastics, polymers, chemicals, bio-chemicals, metals, coatings, thinfilms, surface treatments, composites, alloys, oil and gas, fuel additives, fibers, and several other related technologies and their impact and applications across industries.
