Market Drivers

• Increasing demand from the automotive industry.


• Rise in demand for performance coating in the marine industry.

Market Restraints

• 
  Solvent-based adhesives and coatings are being discontinued to reduce VOC emissions.

Segmentation

By Type

• Polyurethane: Polyurethane has superior characteristics of preventing corrosion and provide durability on the surface of substance with this coating. Polyurethane coating is applied to many floors, steel supports, and concrete supports in the construction industry. This makes them more durable and less prone to rust.


• Silicone: Silicone coating has excellent solvent resistanceand iswidely used for industrial purposes. Several industrial paints manufacturers use silicone coating to improve adherence, waterproofing, and resistance of a substance to extreme conditions.


• Polyester: Polyester is a cost-effective product and ismajorly used in the construction industry in architectural projects. The polyester powder coating is ideally used in windows, doors, home appliances, and metal furniture.


• Acrylic: Acrylic coatings are known for their inertness and exceptional color retention when exposed tocertain environments. Acrylics are one of the fastest-growing segments in the industrial coatings industry.


• Others: Others include zinc coating, ceramic coatings, and others.

By Coating Technology

• Solvent-based coating: solvent-based coatings are widely employed in various industrial applications due to theirlow cost, outstanding film-forming capabilities, and ease of application. Solvent-based coatings have a high concentration of volatile organic chemicals, makingthe application, drying, and development of a long-lasting, uniform coating film easier.


• Water-based coating: The resins used include in water-based coatings are polyesters, epoxy,and alkyds. Water-based coatings are low in toxicity and lower the concentration of flammable materials since it contains low VOC (volatile organic compounds levels) and HAP (hazardous air pollution) emissions. Furthermore, favorable government rules and regulations are expected to drive the growth of the water-based coating segment over the forthcoming years.


• Powder-based coating:Powder-based coating is a type of coating technologyconsisting ofa combination of pigments, curatives, flow modifiers, leveling agents, and additives, among others. The electrostatic spray deposition (ESD) process is generally used to apply the powder coating onto the substance in the marine and automotive industry.

By Application

• Aerospace & Defense:In the aerospace & defense industry, the operator needs a lightweight coatings system withunique characteristics such asa long service period, usually over fiveyears and often much longer. To fulfill this requirement, performance coating plays an important role in the aerospace industry. Performance coating also provideshigh heat resistance to aero enginesand exhibits anti-corrosion properties in a hot, humid atmosphere. As a result, increasing usage of performance coatings in the aerospace &defense industry isexpected to drive global market demand during the forecast period.
