Medical elastomers are often used in fluid pathways, blood pressure tubing, wound drainage and Penrose tubing, and even drug delivery systems. Elastomers maintain their shape even when twisted and stretched and are durable enough for a fast-paced surgical environment. The medical elastomers include Thermoplastic Elastomers (TPE) and Thermoset Elastomers (TSE).
Thermoplastic Elastomers (TPE) and Thermoset Elastomers (TSE) have one very important difference. A TSE, during formation, undergoes a chemical reaction called vulcanization, where strong chemical bonds are formed. Whereas TPEs can be reheated and reshaped, a TSE, due to vulcanization, once cooled, loses its ability to be heated and reprocessed into a different shape.
In 2024, global Medical Elastomers sales volume reached approximately 794.9 k tons, with an average global market price of around US$ 4700 per ton.
Global key players of Medical Elastomers include DuPont, Avient, TekniPlex, Kraton, Mitsubishi Chemical, etc. The top five players hold a share about 28%. China is the largest market, and has a share about 32%, followed by North America and Europe with share 24% and 22%, separately. In terms of product type, Thermoplastic Elastomer is the largest segment, accounting for a share of 64%. In terms of application, Medical Consumables is the largest field with a share about 56 percent.
Countries around the world, especially emerging market countries, are increasing their investment in medical infrastructure. The growth in medical expenditure by the government and private sectors provides a stable market demand for the medical elastomer industry. Especially in the Asia-Pacific region and Latin America, the expansion and renewal of medical facilities provide a broad market for the application of medical elastomer materials. Enterprises can enter these markets with huge growth potential through international layout.
Progress in materials science has led to higher performance and more biocompatible medical elastomer materials. For example, elastomer materials with antibacterial properties, degradability, and smart functions are developing rapidly.
Through technological innovation, medical elastomers can enter new medical applications such as degradable medical devices, drug delivery systems, and smart medical devices. These new applications will expand market demand and bring high value-added product opportunities to companies.
With the rise of health management and telemedicine, the wearable device market is expanding rapidly. As an important material for wearable devices, the demand for medical elastomers has increased accordingly. The application of medical elastomers in wearable devices is mainly focused on flexible sensors, flexible circuits and comfortable wearing experience. As consumers' demand for personalization, comfort and durability increases, companies can gain market share by developing and providing high-performance elastomer materials.
