Amid the tragic consequences of COVID-19, life sciences and medtech companies emerged as lights in the darkness. Decades of scientific work and investment seemed to be overnight successes. The heroic dedication of health care providers was met by the fastest novel vaccine development in history. Traditional competitors partnered to accelerate research and manufacturing.

Pressure-sensitive adhesives are an interesting product category with the potential to create a new generation of self-adhesives with a wide range of exceptional features. These adhesives are aggressively and persistently sticky in their dry state at room temperature and firmly attach to a comprehensive range of surfaces with the help of finger or hand pressure. Currently, acrylic self-adhesive polymers are manufactured using a wide range of acrylic ester monomers with a low proportion of monomers bearing pendant functional groups. Solvent-borne, water-borne, and solvent-free acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesives are the three most popular varieties of acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesives.

Mycelium is a filament-like structure, and many such filaments are called hyphae. The interwoven filament structure that forms the fungus's vegetative part is known as mycelia. Mycelia are finger-like shapes that develop outward, such as roots, to seek water and nutrients to meet the fungi body’s requirements. Mycelia have masses known as Shiro, and these fungal colonies are situated underneath or on the soil surface. Mycelia can easily move through the soil or other surface due to rigid wall structure. Mycelium has a solid fibrous structure that can be utilized to produce materials such as clothing, food, construction, and packaging. It can be used to prepare materials such as leather, edible plant-based steak, and an alternative to plastics. Moreover, the fast growth of mycelium is seen as a great alternative to styrofoam, which is being banned in most countries due to its harmful effects on the environment. The various uses of mycelium are possible due to its lightweight, biodegradable, and strong structure. Research and developments are going on to check the feasibility of using mycelium in the construction industry. Mycelium is fire-resistant, breathable, and is an excellent insulator that can be used for preparing clothes, footwear, and other similar products.

Death is an inevitable aspect that has constantly been witnessed in every corner of the world. It can be classified as natural, accident, suicide, homicide, undetermined, and pending (decided by the medical examiner and coroners). Most deaths occur naturally, which include aging or diseases. Apart from natural death, environmental disasters, unintentional injuries, crimes, self-harm, and others have contributed to the death process. Unintentional injuries accounted for the most causes of unnatural deaths.

Medical swabs are crucial components in diagnostic tests and are largely used in clinical settings for various other purposes, such as specimen collection, medicine application, equipment maintenance, and wound treatment. The surge in diagnostic and research requirements worldwide has accelerated the use of medical swabs.

从需求端看，下游应用多元，需求高速增长。从需求总量来看，近年来国内外碳纤维市场总需求持续增长，2020年，在民用航空受疫情影响遭遇重挫的背景下，全球总需求仍有2%的增量，总量高达106.9千吨。而国内碳纤维市场总需求增长更为强劲，2020年同比增长29%。据赛奥碳纤维技术预测，至2025年，国内碳纤维总需求将持续高速增长。从需求结构来看，碳纤维下游应用分散多元，包括风电叶片、体育休闲、航空航天等领域，其中风电叶片和体育休闲都占据了主要地位。

从企业产品结构的角度来看，各家企业的布局思路不同，一类是以大丝束碳纤维作为未来发展重点，一类是不断深耕小丝束，高性能。我们推荐关注国内最早突破干喷湿纺技术的中复神鹰，重点布局碳纤维大丝束原丝、大丝束原丝市占率第一的吉林碳谷，这两家企业在大、小丝束的明显优势，形成了类似全产业链龙头日本东丽的水平，我们愿称之为”中国东丽组合”。

Reverse osmosis eliminates contaminants from feed water or unfiltered water when pressure forces it through a semipermeable membrane. Water flows from the more concentrated side (more contaminants) of the RO membrane to the less concentrated side (fewer contaminants) to provide clean drinking water. RO and nanofiltration membranes are usually used as a filtration method to eliminate numerous types of dissolved solids (large molecules and ions) from solutions by smearing pressure to the solution when it is on one side of a selective membrane. RO membranes are generally positioned as crossflow filters, where the high velocity of the wastewater along the filter retains the flow turbulence, which helps control the thickness of the solids on the filter and decreases plugging of the filter.

The report focuses on the assessment of the market by product, material, application, end market, and region.

Personal protective equipment (PPE) includes various products like gloves, face masks, surgical gowns, and more. There is always a huge demand for PPE materials across the globe due to the developing healthcare infrastructure in developing countries and the increased requirement for safety measures in healthcare setups. In a few cases, the demand for PPEs is due to exceptional factors like disease outbreaks, pandemics, and epidemics. The world is exposed to multiple outbreaks and other disastrous infections. One such event occurred in 2019, which started as a simple respiratory infection, and later spread to more than 190 countries and killed millions of people across the globe. The COVID-19 pandemic is driving the demand for various PPE materials in healthcare settings. An important PPE material that is largely in demand during the pandemic, pre-pandemic, and post-pandemic, is medical face masks. This is one of the most essential materials used in various healthcare settings from hospitals, labs, research centers, ambulatory surgical centers, long-term care facilities, clinics, and more.
