The key players operating in the electroactive polymers market are Solvay (Belgium), Parker Hannifin (US) Agfa-Gevaert (Belgium), 3M (US), Merck (Germany), Lubrizol (US), Novasentis (US), Premix (Finland), and PolyOne Corporation (US), among others.

Among types, the inherently conductive polymer market is projected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period from 2017 to 2022
Based on type, the electroactive polymers market has been segmented into conductive plastics, Inherently Conductive Polymers (ICPs), inherently dissipative polymers. Among types, the conductive plastics segment accounted for the largest share of the electroactive polymers market in 2016. The inherently conductive polymers segment is projected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Presently, ICPs are undergoing extensive R&D activities as these are expected to have potential applications in the fields of robotics, energy harvesting, coatings, medicals, and smart fabrics. ICPs exhibit excellent optical and electrical properties, high transparency, high environmental stability, low cost, and high process ability in comparison to other EAPs.

Thus, an increase in the demand for the ICP segment is expected to drive the electroactive polymers market around the globe.
Based on application, the market has been classified into Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) protection, Electromagnetic Interference (EMI), shielding, actuators, capacitors, batteries, sensors, and others. The actuator application is projected to lead the electroactive polymers market during the forecast period. The growth of this segment can be attributed to the increasing use of electroactive polymers in actuator applications owing to their operational efficiency over conventional materials. The actuator application is projected to grow at the highest CAGR between 2017 and 2022.
