Market Insights

Superhydrophobic coatings market, as the name suggests are coatings which repel water. Made up by nanoscopic surface layers in an effort to mimic natural superhydrophobic surfaces, these coatings can be applied to glass, concrete, textiles, plastic, wood, and others while offering benefits such as resistance to dirt, corrosion, and abrasions. Market Research Future has released its latest report on superhydrophobic coatings which reveals various essential market factors and key figures for the forecast period of 2021 - 2030.

With applications across a variety of industries such as building & construction, electronics & telecommunication, automotive, textiles & leather, and medical & healthcare industries, the superhydrophobic coatings market is expected to grow significantly, as the demand in these end-user industries increases. Superhydrophobic coatings have several benefits such as the ability to extend product life and reduce or avoid water damage which indirectly translates to cost-effectiveness. Moreover, their properties provide added benefits of self-cleaning, anti-soiling and anti-fingerprint properties. As such, the electronics industry is a vital driver of the superhydrophobic coatings market due to the use of these coatings to protect sensitive electronic components from water damage. Textiles are another key industry where superhydrophobic coatings are in high demand as consumers are highly attracted to the idea of clothing which does not stain easily and offers weather resistance during wet climates.

Moreover, the increased demand for superhydrophobic coatings is in response to the technological advances and R&D activities being carried out for the development of highly transparent coatings which provide optical clarity and will likely lead to the proliferation of various applications in the next few years.
