4. Superabsorbent Polymers Market Analysis A large geriatric population pool has led to an uptick in the demand for disposable diapers in recent years. As the percentage of old people increase, chronic ailments such as fecal incontinence and urinary malfunctions have also augmented. This has stimulated demand for diapers which extensively utilize super absorbent polymers. Over the years, super absorbent polymers have been gaining immense traction for a variety of end-uses. Invented in the 1970s in Japan, super absorbent polymers are derived from an amalgamation of sodium hydroxide and acrylic acid. Super absorbent polymers are primarily used in producing feminine and disposable hygiene products, disposable diapers, sand bags, artificial snow and absorbent pads. These polymers are used to manufacture aqueous solutions for diapers, absorbent pads and adult incontinence products. Superabsorbent polymers have taken the diaper industry by storm. Manufacturers effectively exploited their liquid retention capacity. These polymers absorb and retain nearly 30 times their weight in urine. The swollen gel within the diaper preserves the liquid in a rubbery state, preventing any leakage. Based on this trend, the superabsorbent polymers market is anticipated to reach a volume of ~3000 tons by the end of 2020. www.futuremarketinsights.com I @futuremarketins I /company/future-market-insights 4 © 2019 Future Market Insights, All Rights Reserved

7. Superabsorbent Polymers Market Analysis Anticipated Impact of the Coronavirus Pandemic The superabsorbent polymers market has experienced a significant production crunch in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic. As countries have imposed nationwide lockdowns, manufacturing units are either completely shut or operating at half their capacities. Moreover, social distancing measures have disrupted logistical arrangements, leading to problems in procuring raw materials for production. In addition, these raw materials have skyrocketed in terms of cost as there is a severe shortage. Fortunately, market players are leveraging their supply chains by consolidating their online sales platforms in order to deliver their products to their consumers. Customers are increasingly purchasing diapers through online retail outlets, keeping the market afloat. Moreover, certain countries have now started to relax lockdowns, permitting transportation and production to revert to normalcy. This is anticipated to retain much of the lost revenue during the first two quarters of 2020.
