Medical Coatings (Hydrophilic and Hydrophobic coatings) Market - Regional Trends & Forecast to 2019
M2 - Mon Feb 16, 6:47AM CST
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/nhzhtk/medical_coatings) has announced the addition of the "Medical Coatings Market by Type, Application and Geography - Regional Trends & Forecast to 2019" report to their offering. The medical coatings market was estimated around $9.1 billion in 2013, with the high share of around 70% held by North America and Europe together. The global medical coatings market by value is projected to grow at a CAGR of 6.5% from 2014 to 2019. The high growth is forecasted to be in the Asia-Pacific due to rise of medical device manufacturing in the region. Europe is estimated to have the second highest growth around 6.37% from 2014 to 2019. Advancements in medical device designing have led to improvement of existing medical devices as well as introduction of new technologies. These devices are made of metals such as stainless steel, aluminum or ceramic such as bioglass or alumina. Not all these materials are compatible when in contact with tissues and body fluids and can cause complications, for instance, infection and blood clots. Coatings help to remove these difficulties. Some coatings help to make the device biocompatible while others help to prevent microbial infections. It may also be hydrophilic or hydrophobic according to the requirement. Coatings also help to reduce static and kinetic friction between two different surfaces. Based on properties, medical coatings can be broadly classified into hydrophilic and hydrophobic coatings. However, there are other types of coatings such as antimicrobial, protective, optical, lubricious, pharmacological and so. The most commonly used chemistries in coatings are parylene, silicones, and fluoropolymers.
