Smart polymers are special materials that can change their shape, size, or properties in response to different conditions like temperature, pH, or light. They're like magic materials that can adapt and do different things depending on what's happening around them.

BOSTON, April 15, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- "According to the latest research study, the demand for Smart Polymers expected to grow from $23.8 billion in 2023 to reach $54.5 billion by the end of 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 18.0% from 2023 through 2028"

Smart polymers are like special materials that can change when something happens to them, like when the temperature changes or when they're exposed to light. Because of these cool abilities, lots of industries are using them more and more. This report talks about how these smart polymers are used in different industries like healthcare, construction, and electronics. It also looks at how new technologies are helping make these smart polymers even better and how companies are trying to be more environmentally friendly when they use them. The report also gives some numbers about how big the market for smart polymers is and how it's expected to grow in the coming years.

Self-healing concrete is like magic concrete that can fix itself when it gets cracks. It has tiny capsules filled with special stuff that can mend the cracks automatically. These capsules only break open and release the healing stuff when there's a crack and the conditions are right, like when there's moisture or a change in pH. This helps the concrete stay strong and last longer because it can fix itself without needing humans to do anything.
