Global Hydrophilic Coating Market Report

Hydrophilic coating is a layer of non-aqueous hydrophilic materials that acts as an important member of the corrosion protection system. It counteracts rusting, restores parts that have been damaged by corrosion and protects against atmospheric corrosion. A coating that is attracted to water is said to be hydrophilic. Because these coatings are hydrophilic, which meaning “water-loving,” they tend to draw water rather than repel it. When exposed to moisture, hydrophilic coatings rapidly transport water throughout the object, increasing its lubricity and greatly lowering surface friction. It enhances durability, performance and life expectancy of metallic surfaces such as those used in aviation, transportation and construction industries. 

The Global Hydrophilic Coating Market Report provides insights about the current market scenario and its  future prospects, with the help of presenting a thorough assessment of current industry status in this growing market. The report also forecasts the information related to growth opportunities, drivers, challenges, sales channels and trends impact on the market. The overall market for Hydrophilic coating is governed by players including Aculon, Applied Medical Coatings, Corning Incorporated, Hdydromer Inc, DSM. 

As per market study, the first hydrophilic coating method with a two-layer system, incorporating bonding and binding coats, was patented by DuPont in 1956. Polyvinylpyrolidone (PVP), polyurethanes, polyacrylic acid (PAA), polyethylene oxide (PEO), and polysaccharide materials have all been used as hydrophilic coatings over the years. The medical community, which is now a key segment of the value chain for the hydrophilic coatings market, frequently used coatings like glycerin, silicone oils, and even olive oil to lubricate devices and other instruments before the use of these widely used hydrophilic coatings. These coatings, along with attempts to use fluoropolymers like PTFE, were not always successful since they made it difficult to manage the lubrication and frequently detached from the equipment after insertion. These early hydrophilic coatings are typically high priced, i.e. the manufacturing process employed was noted to be pricey, which was then cost optimized. It was noted that the cost of the process was elevated by particularly high-priced plasma processing machinery. The machinery had application issues and was easily damaged due to the wear and tear associated with the processing. 

The bonding process between devices and hydrophilic coatings as well as application techniques have improved over time. Additionally, the rate of manufacture accelerated, which reduced the price of hydrophilic coatings and improved their accessibility. Natural and synthetic hydrophilic coatings are both widely available nowadays, and the decision depends on the device’s functional requirements.

Hydrophilic properties of a surface are the most important criteria for selecting a coating for a given application. The market report for hydrophilic coatings covers the overall technology aspect of this market which has been covered briefly above. The global hydrophilic coating market is segmented on the basis of type, application, location and end user. The major market players are focusing on new product launch and business alliances as a means to stay ahead in the world market. Growing demand of increasing number of industries for advanced and integrated hygienic nanoscale coatings has propelled the global hydrophilic coating market’s growth during the forecast period.

The Global Hydrophilic Coating market has been evaluated and analyzed in terms of its major strategies, and tactics to develop a deeper understanding of the overall Hydrophilic Coating market. The major factors driving the growth of the global hydrophilic coating market are gaining prominence primarily because of the increasing demand for hydrophobic coatings as a result of their superior performance characteristics. This has led to higher purchase price and technical specifications thereby making hydrophobic film more attractive.
