Global Polymer Nanomembrane Market, By Type, End User, Estimation & Forecast, 2017-2030

Global polymer nanomembrane market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 9.9% during the forecast period 2022-2027

The global polymer nanomembrane market held a market value of USD 729.9 million in 2021 and is estimated to reach USD 1,669.1 million by the year 2030. The market is anticipated to register a CAGR of 9.9% during the forecast period. The market volume is estimated to account around 208.3 square metrics in 2021 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 8.9% over the forecast period.

Polymer nanomembranes are artificial structures having a thickness of less than 100 nanometers. Their surface-area-to-volume ratio rises by several orders of magnitude. Polymer nanomembranes are nanomembranes made from polymers (PAN, PVDF, PES, and others). The pore size of these membranes ranges from 1nm to 300nm. These membranes are primarily used in various sectors as nanofiltration membranes and nanofiber membranes.

On the other hand, geopolitical conflicts affecting the electronics sector are expected to limit the growth of the polymer nanomembrane market over the forecast period. This is because geopolitical tensions have an impact on the electronics industry. Furthermore, the growing demand for athleisure will provide further opportunities for the polymer nanomembrane market to expand in the next years. Nonetheless, in the near future, the lack of knowledge in developing nations may provide an additional impediment to the growth of the polymer nanomembrane market.

The trade war between the United States and China is a key geopolitical issue that could have an impact on the nanomembrane business. The United States and China are major semiconductor players. The US ban on Huawei participating in 5G has slowed 5G adoption, which is required for AI and IoT growth. Without a licence, the US restricted SMIC's exports and chip sales. This has a negative impact on the global semiconductor market. Semiconductors manufacture electronic devices. The semiconductor market has an impact on the polymer nanomembranes market.

Sports, casual, work, and social clothing are all examples of athleisure. These are waterproof and made of a lightweight, flexible material. Athleisure clothing is being driven by the growing fitness and sports trend. The qualities of athleisure gear are provided by polymer nanomembrane. Wind, rain, and snow are not a problem. However, the polymer nanomembrane boosts air and water vapour permeability.
