by The global Microspheres Market is estimated to be valued at US$ 7324.01 Mn in 2023 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 9.1% over the forecast period 2023 to 2030, as highlighted in a new report published by Coherent Market Insights.
Market Overview:
Microspheres are spherical particles used in various biomedical and industrial applications. They are made from a wide range of materials depending on intended use including glass, ceramic, polymers, and others. Due to their uniform size and surface properties, microspheres find extensive use in several industries such as pharmaceutical, biotechnology, drug delivery, etc.
Market key trends:
One of the key trends in the microspheres market is the increasing use of microspheres in drug delivery applications. Microspheres are widely used to encapsulate pharmaceutical and biotherapeutic agents for controlled or sustained drug delivery. They allow drugs to circulate for a prolonged period of time in the body. Microsphere-based drug delivery systems offer advantages such as reduced dosing and lower side effects. This makes them suitable for conditions requiring long-term drug delivery like cancer, diabetes, etc. and is expected to drive the demand for microspheres over the forecast period.
