The environmental dilemma caused by reaching high levels of greenhouse gas emissions in the atmosphere is one of the major drivers for the market studied. Also, the dumping of non-degradable waste in landfills and oceans is harming the environment. Additionally, the fluctuation in oil prices and the change of laws in the usage of petroleum-based plastics have helped accelerate the demand for these biodegradable compounds. Major challenges, such as climate change, energy security, food security, rising human population, and global economic meltdowns, have increased the need for sustainable economic growth that may not have a negative impact on the environment. In this regards, one of the major issues faced by the world remains the replacement of toxic releasing and non-biodegradable polymer.  In order to curb land and air pollution caused due to non-biodegradable plastics, governments across the world have come up with numerous regulations and policies regarding the use of conventional synthetic polymers. Further, they have been promoting the use of eco-friendly and biodegradable materials for the production of polymers.  These polymers are derived from starch, making it a perfect biodegradable replacement for petroleum or fuel-based polymers. Biopolymers are non-toxic and are easier to recycle. Hence, they take less time to break down, which helps in the protection of the environment.

The Polymeric Biomaterials market is largely driven by increasing global prevalence of chronic diseases and technological advancements in the polymeric biomaterials as this chronic diseases will increase the demand for polymer biomaterial based products resulting into high growth of the market As per the World Health Organization (WHO), it is estimated that there will be 23.6 million deaths annually by 2030, due to CVD, with the largest increase in Southeast Asia. The factors, such as innovations in polymeric biomaterials and increasing number of applications of polymeric biomaterials in tissue engineering, are expected to fuel the growth of the market studied, over the forecast period. But factors, like bio-compatibility issues in biomaterials (especially in implanted/ingested materials) and stringent regulations for certain polymeric biomaterials, are expected to limit the growth of the market.

Fibers are a source of reinforcement in engineering polymer composites, responsible for strength and stiffness. As in composites, stress is transferred from fiber to polymer and vice versa, and high mechanical properties are only acquired if appropriate compatibility exists between the matrix and reinforcement. The aviation industry generates around 2-3% of all human-induced Co2 emissions and 12% of the emissions of the transportation industry. The higher consumption of fuel in the aircraft leads to larger emissions of greenhouse gases and contributes to global warming. Moreover, the higher level of fuel consumption leads to higher cost, thus, increasing the operational cost of airlines. The aerospace industry is constantly focusing on producing fuel-efficient, lighter, yet stronger materials. Thus, the industry has shifted from using aluminum, steel, and titanium to composites. Currently, the use of composites has reduced around 50% of the structural weight of the aircraft, thus, increasing the fuel efficiency to around 20% and reducing the noise by around 5%, as well as decreasing the maintenance cost by around 30%.

Extruded polystyrene (XPS) is a polystyrene foam obtained through the extrusion process. XPS systems use air as an insulating material and form a closely packed structure, which exhibits excellent moisture-resistant properties. The manufacturing process of XPS includes melting of polystyrene, which is then fed into an extruder along with special additives & blowing agents. Moreover, the efficiency of an insulation XPS system depends on its thickness and installation. The global extruded polystyrene insulation materials market is driven by the growth in demand for energyefficient buildings from the non-residential and residential segments of the construction industry, and rise in government infrastructure projects. However, certain environmental issues related to the use of global warmingcausing toxic chemicals like fluorochlorohydrocarbons and presence of high number of substitutes are expected to hinder the market growth during the forecast period. Manufacturers have made heavy investments to eliminate the use of these toxic chemicals and develop safer XPS systems. The introduction of high-quality, energy-efficient XPS systems and frequent product launches by market players to enhance their product portfolio provide lucrative growth opportunities for market expansion. In addition, the volume and revenue of the market is provided in the report in terms of kilotons and $million.

Increasing security concerns in almost all the nations across the world is a major driving factor for long fiber in the defense sector. This, coupled with rising threats from various anti-social organizations for countries, such as the United States, India, etc., is further driving the demand for the market studied in the defense sector. Conventionally, thermoset-based composites are used as alternatives for various structural metal-based parts in military equipment manufacturing. In defense applications, fiber-reinforced thermosets are well known composite structures. However, thermoset materials have limitations, like resistance to hydrolysis and poor structural performance in fire regardless of their good flammability resistance when compared with that of thermoplastics. The above-mentioned factors are quite instrumental in impacting on the consumption of thermosets, which are ultimately going to drive the growth prospects of the thermoplastics market over the forecast period.
