Hydrophilic Coatings Market Definition
Hydrophilic coatings absorb water and swell upon contact with water or any other aqueous fluid. The hydrophilic coatings are the wet surfaces that provide excellent compatibility with water and bodily fluids and improve the lubricity and feel during surgical, minimally invasive procedures.
Hydrophilic Coatings Market Dynamics
This section deals with understanding the market drivers, advantages, opportunities, restraints and challenges. All of this is discussed in detail as below:
Drivers
- High Usage for Medical Purposes
The hydrophilic coatings are extensively used across medical industries. The hydrophilic coatings or hydrogels with 3D cross-linked networks can hold many antimicrobial agents and release them locally in a controlled manner and also provide enhanced outcomes in minimally invasive procedures. This reduces the infection and thrombosis related diseases. Hydrogels can be coated on to the substrates via dip coating, spray costing, spin coating and other methods. Various polymers involved in this process include polyvinyl alcohol, polyethylene glycol, ethylene glycol di-acrylate and others. These are also employed in the medical devices for enhanced functioning parameters. These technical innovations and beneficiary factors are driving the growth of the market over the forecasted period.
- Rising population and urbanization
The expansion of end use industries coupled with the increase in urbanization and population, will further propel the growth rate of hydrophilic coatings market. Additionally, the rapid urbanization and industrialization in emerging countries, such as India, China, and Southeast Asia, will drive market value growth.
Opportunities
- Regulations boosting Demand for VOC-free Coatings
The favorable initiatives by government associated with environmental regulations to increase demand for VOC-free coatings, will further extend profitable opportunities to the market players in the forecast period of 2022 to 2029. The European Commission and other federal government agencies create new laws and regulations, such as the Eco-product Certification Scheme (ECS). These regulations guarantee low or no harmful VOC emissions and a green and sustainable environment. In order to produce more environmentally friendly coatings, these regulations encourage coating-related companies to invest in bio-based raw materials. Government regulations in the US and Western Europe, especially those pertaining to air pollution, will also continue to support the use of cutting-edge, low-pollution coating technology.
Restraints/Challenges
- Stringent Approval Process
The coatings manufacturers must enhance their manufacturing and production processes per the regulatory policies imposed by various governments. These stringent policies further result in more time for approval, which will create hindrances for the growth of the hydrophilic coatings market.
- Fluctuations in Raw Material Prices
The inconsistent raw material prices have a direct negative impact on the overall market’s growth. As a result, these fluctuations will pose as a major challenge the hydrophilic coatings market growth rate.
