Market Insights
Smart Coatings market size was valued at US$ 2,257.5 Mn in 2017, growing with a CAGR of 20.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2026. Smart coatings are custom prepared to meet the varying demand from end-use industries such as automotive & transportation, construction, consumer electronics, aerospace & defense, marine, etc. Their ability to respond quickly to external stimuli and rising application in different end-use industries owing to their outstanding features are the key factors driving the market. Features such as self-cleaning, corrosion resistance, color switch, etc. are obtained by the use of various nanomaterial such as carbon black, organic-inorganic hybrid polymers, tungsten oxide, zinc or aluminum coated with nano-TiO2, etc. to achieve higher opacity, better interaction between coating and surface and higher durability of the coating. Although, the smart coating is the niche market, however, improved products demand from customers has catapulted its demand. Smart coatings are gaining traction with the advent of new technologies such as nanotechnology, conductive materials, micro-encapsulation, self-healing and self-assembling systems, further enhancing their functionalities. These technologies are enabling coatings to deliver added performance beyond aesthetics and protection. Constant R&D by the leading players have resulted in the development of lightweight and eco-friendly smart coatings, thereby further boosting the market. However, slow mass adoption due to the high cost of these multifunctional coating may act as a restraining factor for Smart Coatings market
