Based on type, the market is divided into polyacrylonitrile (pan), polyethylene (pe), polyvinylidene fluoride (pvdf), polyamide, polypropylene (pp), others. Polyacrylonitrile (PAN) held the dominant market share of USD 274.5 million in 2022. The high chemical and thermal stability of PAN nanomembranes makes them suitable for water purification, desalination, and filtration, driving demand in the water treatment industry. PAN nanomembranes are used in medical devices, drug delivery systems, wound healing, and tissue engineering due to their biocompatibility and controlled release properties, increasing demand in the healthcare sector.
 

Based on technology, the market is categorized into phase inversion, electrospinning, layer-by-layer assembly. Phase inversion accounted for over 70% market share in 2022 and is projected to grow through 2032. Phase inversion is a crucial process in the fabrication of polymeric membranes, including nanomembranes, and it can significantly impact the properties and performance of the membranes. The parameters during phase inversion, such as choice of solvent, coagulant, temperature, and polymer concentration, can be adjusted to control the pore size, porosity, and thickness of the resulting membrane, allowing for customization based on specific application requirements.

North America dominated the global polymer nanomembrane market in 2022. Within North America, the U.S. generated a revenue of over USD 156.8 million in 2022. Various industries in North America, including petrochemical, food and beverage, and pharmaceuticals, seek nanomembranes for precise separations, industrial filtration, and purification, driving demand in these sectors. The stringent regulations for clean water and the demand for innovative water treatment solutions drive the need for nanomembranes in desalination, filtration, and purification processes.
