塑料是20世纪初研发出来的新型材料，在20世纪50年代成为一个新兴行业并得到快速发展，80年代时已被广泛应用于多个领域，如航空、汽车、日用家电、日用品、包装、建材及医疗器材等。但是废旧塑料伴随塑料行业的快速发展而大量产生，由于塑料制品在自然环境下降解非常缓慢，直接焚烧会产生大量的有害气体，给社会带来环境污染等诸多问题，所以废旧塑料再生利用越来越成为我国资源再生利用和环境保护事业的一个重要方面。塑料再生主要是对废旧塑料加工处理，重新得到塑料原料。相比纸、金属及其他材料再生行业而言，塑料再生行业刚刚起步，属于资源再生领域的“80后”，但塑料再生却也扮演着“生力军”的重要角色。

Disposable gloves are widely used in medical and nonmedical applications to prevent cross-infection between caregivers and patients. Moreover, they are utilized to inhibit accidental contact with harmful infectious sites or areas. Various types of materials are used in the manufacturing of disposable gloves, including natural rubber, nitrile, vinyl, neoprene, and others.

Thin-film photovoltaic module is considered to be a breakthrough in solar technology, and is rapidly increasing its share in the solar power sector. The thin-film (TF) solar panels consist of solar cells with light absorbing layers, which are more than 350 times smaller than a standard silicon panel. They are considered to be the lightest PV cells, owing to their narrow design and efficient semiconductor built into the cells.

Construction, mining, and agriculture are the main industries that use heavy-duty tires for their machineries. The sales of heavy-duty tires are directly related to the sales and replacement of vehicles in the aforementioned industries. Machinery usage in farming has considerably grown over the years, in all parts of the world. The introduction of internal combustion engines and tractors as a power source has revolutionized the agriculture sector, by covering large agricultural areas in short time. Labor-saving technologies, like harvesters and tractors, are adopted to expand farm operations. Increased liberalization would radically reinforce a structural evolution, resulting in increased adoption of advanced agricultural machinery tools in the agricultural operations.

Disposable medical gloves are widely used in the healthcare applications to avoid cross-infection between caregivers and patients. Disposable medical gloves are utilized for avoiding accidental contact to harmful infectious sites or areas. Various types of materials have been used in the manufacturing of disposable medical gloves namely, natural rubber, nitrile, vinyl, neoprene, and others. This report focuses on disposable medical gloves used in medical areas such as for examination, forensics, and surgical purposes. The report also covers both powdered and non-powdered variants. The report excludes the market for disposable gloves that comprise non-medical gloves as well as safety/non-disposable/leather gloves. The revenue from both local as well as global manufacturers has been considered during the analysis.
