Innovative Bioadhesives Address Several Unmet Needs in Key Industries: Frost & Sullivan
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. -- Vast technological capabilities and the addition of more viable solutions have gradually reduced unmet needs across several industries. The industry is ripe for innovations from small companies with many bioadhesive vendors licensing new solutions to product developers looking to strengthen their portfolios and market positions.
New analysis from Frost & Sullivan, Impact of Bioadhesives in Key Sectors, finds that animal glues, starch- and gum-based bioadhesives have found uses in key sectors, fulfilling the need for biocompatibility, eco-friendliness and adhesion. The study covers the healthcare, personal care, and paper and pulp industries.
“Bioadhesives have increasingly filled gaps that have developed due to the absence of natural substances suitable for the healthcare, personal care, and pulp and paper industries,” said Technical Insights Research Analyst Sanchari Chatterjee “Advanced adhesive functionalities for drug delivery systems as well as bio-compatibility and tissue friendliness for wound closure applications have spurred use of bioadhesives. Another major business accelerator of the bioadhesive market is the global inclination towards bio-based materials and reduced use of synthetic adhesives.”
While bioadhesives are as generally as competent as synthetic adhesives, a major drawback is limited shelf life. In healthcare especially, the need to reduce operating costs strengthens demand for products that last longer in internal tissues. Moreover, shelf-life requirements for individual sectors differ; hence, research projects must focus on blending polymers to derive the most capable products.
“Lack of skilled resources is another challenge as integration of materials and bio-sciences and the in
