Self-Healing Materials Market
                     Self-Healing Materials Market to Witness Steady Expansion During 2018 – 2026
Self-healing materials are synthetically manufactured products that can automatically and 
autonomously heal or repair the damages without any external intervention or human 
interference. Materials degrade over time due to stress, ecological conditions, or the damage that 
occurs during the operation itself. Self-healing materials are able to encounter this degradation by
initiating a restoration mechanism that responds to the micro-damage. The market growth for 
self-healing materials is expected to grow due to their exceptional properties and advantages such
as hollow fibers can easily be mixed and tailored with the conventional reinforcing fibers, higher 
volume of healing agent such as monomers, dyes, catalysts and hardeners are available to repair 
damages. Owing to these factors the self-healing materials market is expected to propel at a 
higher rate in the construction, plastics and adhesives industry during the forecast period.

The major drivers for the global self-healing materials market are the long term warranties and
the long-term monetary benefits provided by the use of self-healing materials as compared to
conventional  materials.  Companies  such  as  Acciona  S.A.,  AkzoNobel  N.V.,  and  others  are
providing  self-healing  materials  across  the  globe.  For  instance,  in  April,  2015,  Acciona
Infraestructuras were involved in two European projects, SHINE Project (Self-Healing Innovative
Elastomers) and the HEALCON project where the company developed plastic materials that can
heal  themselves  at  ambient  temperature  and  various  asphalt  mixes  that  used  self-repairing
materials were developed. The SHINE project was aimed for the development of new self-healing
elastomers with mechanical properties comparable to conventional ones with 60% recovery of the
initial properties after healing, repeatable self-healing, operable at room temperature and without
human intervention.

Self-Healing Materials Market Outlook:
•In North America, the U.S. is the largest market for self-healing materials. The demand
for self-healing materials in this region is due to the growing use of self-healing materials
in various end-user industries such as aerospace and automotive. The presence of major
players  in  North America  such as  Arkema Inc.  and others  are  projected to result  in
developments  of  self-healing  materials,  supporting  high  growth  in  the  market.  For
instance, Arkema Inc. collaborations with university and government laboratories helped
Arkema  to  develop  self-healing  material  products  such  as  Reverlink  in  2010.  North
America is the largest market for cladding systems in burgeoning construction industry is
also one of the driving factors for the self-healing materials market to strive in the US
market. Moreover, the Trump government promises of change in public infrastructure and
the New Building Canada Fund commitment towards sanctioning of US$ 10 billion over a
10-year period i.e. 2014-2024, to build public infrastructure. This factors are expected to
propel the growth of the self-healing materials market in North America.
•The Asia-Pacific  region is  expected to be the fastest  growing market  for  self-healing
materials. The ever increasing industrial development rates, condensed population in cities,
and escalating funds in the automobile and electrical sectors, are the driving forces that
augment vigorous regional growth of this market. The availability of a bigger market
combined  with  cheaper  manufacturing  costs  is  projected  to  experience  enhanced
application of self-healing materials  in this region. Asia Pacific is  the fastest  growing
market due to the flourishing growth of construction industries in the emerging markets of
India, China, Indonesia, and the ASEAN countries. The shift in population from rural
settlements to cities, has augmented this growth. According to stats released by World
Bank in 2016, 57% of China’s and 33% of India’s population live in urban settlements.
These factors drive the growth of the self-healing materials market in this region.
•The increasing advanced infrastructure and development in the Middle East is projected to
result in an increasing demand for self-healing materials in this region during the forecast
period.  Joint  ventures  and  consolidation  of  major  industry  players  with  the  regional
manufacturers, is expected to boost the self-healing market positively in this region. The
growth of the construction market in various emerging counties of Africa is expected to
provide ample opportunities for growth of the self-healing materials market in this region,
during the forecast period
Scientists at the University of California have produced a self-healing material that is expected to
be utilized in smartphone screens by 2020, which is projected to be a major breakthrough for the
global self-healing materials market. The increasing use of self-healing materials in day to day
applications, could result in the production and development of cheaper self-healing materials.
Major self-healing material producers include Acciona S.A., AkzoNobel N.V., Applied Thin Films,
Inc.,  Arkema  SA,  Autonomic  Materials  Inc.,  Avecom N.V.,  BASF  SE,  Covestro  AG,  Critical
Materials S.A., Devan Chemicals, E.I. Du Pont De Nemours and Company, Evonik Industries,
Sensor Coating Systems Ltd., and Slips Technologies, Inc.
