Polyglycolic acid (PGA) is a synthetic and absorbablesuture material derived from homopolymer of glycolic acid.Polyglycolic acid (PGA) is produced through ring-opening polymerization of glycolide and polycondensation of glycolic acid. PGA is a thermoplastic offering excellent resistance from UV and moisture. It is widely used in shale gas extraction, and biomedical & packaging industry.
The global polyglycolic acid (PGA) market is rapidly growing due to rise in demand for surgical sutures in the medical industry.In addition, PGA mesh fabric is widely used for healing injured tissues during surgeries. Further, application of polyglycolic acid in textile industry with high UV resistance property is expected to positively influence the market size. Newly developed polyglycolicacid products with bio-degradable properties are projected to create opportunities targeting new market segments. However, high maintenance cost and high degradation rate hinder the polyglycolic acid market growth during the forecast period.
