Albany - NY, Sept. 29, 2016 -- Global Smart Coating Market
Smart coatings refer to films or layers made up of coating materials that have pre-defined characteristics and display certain properties on reacting to external stimuli such as light, pressure, or electric current. According to specific requirements of end-use applications, smart coatings are customized. In the past couple of years, smart coating has gained popularity due to its competitive advantage over conventional coating. As smart coating materials are weatherproof and chemical resistant, they are widely used as a coating medium across domestic and industrial applications.
Depending on functions, smart coatings are of various types including anti-corrosion coating, self-dimming coating, self-cleaning coating, self-healing coating, biomedical coating, and others.
Smart coating finds applications across a number of end-use industries such as food packaging, IT, aerospace, construction, automotive, household, industrial, and personal care. Smart coating materials are widely used for military and medical applications as well. Growing investments in infrastructure facilities in the construction industry are expected to contribute significantly toward the growth of the market.
Smart coating materials are particularly used for the construction of environmentally sustainable green buildings. In the military sector, anti-corrosion coatings are used to protect galvanized aluminum and steel surfaces. In the health care industry, smart antimicrobial coatings are already in use. Researchers are focusing on the usage of smart coatings to trigger automatic drug release based on external stimuli. Bio-adhesive coatings are being developed to provide controlled drug release and prevent drug overdoses in critical situations.
