Resorbable Polymers Industry Segmentation
Resorbable polymers can be defined as polymers that undergo the degradation or dissolution of their constituent molecules in the body. Degraded or dissolved molecules are finally entirely resorbed by the body. The market segmentation includes material (polylactic acid, polyglycolic acid, polycaprolactone, and PGA/PLA copolymers) and application (drug delivery (oral and parenteral) and orthopedics (trauma, spine, sports medicine, combined magnetic field (CMF), knee, and hip). The report also covers the market size and forecast for the resorbable polymers market in 11 countries across major regions. For each segment, the market sizing and forecasts have been done based on revenue (USD million).
