Market Definition
Aluminum surfaces can be altered chemically through a process known as chemical surface treatment. This surface treatment is frequently applied as a preliminary step before additional finishing procedures such as powder coating or anodizing. The chemical surface treatments include pickling, chromatin/phosphating, and polishing. Chemical treatment increases the corrosion of aluminum. Fragile chemical conversion layers set all chemical processes apart. Typically, the layers' thicknesses fall between 0.01 and 1.25 meters. Therefore, these layers are inadequate for outdoor corrosion protection unless post-treatments are applied. Nevertheless, they perform well as an undercoat for paints, aluminum, and zinc coatings.
Chemical Surface Treatment Market Dynamics
Drivers
- Growing demand for chemical surface treatment and the wide range of advantages it offers are fueling the global surface treatment market
The global surface treatment market share has significantly increased due to increased chemical surface treatment usage in several end-use industries, including industrial machinery, packaging, transportation, and construction. Demand is also rising due to the advantages of chemical surface treatment, including electrical conductivity, wear resistance, corrosion resistance, and chemical resistance. Through the surface treatments' high durability, they are becoming more popular in several industries, including transportation, building, oil and gas pipeline, industrial machinery, and others. Additionally, the growing number of infrastructure projects and the soaring demand for cars in several developing economies
- Increasing demand for cars and an increase in infrastructure projects
The demand for automobiles is expected to rise, and there will be more infrastructure projects in various emerging economies, fueling the market for chemical surface treatments. Construction for both industrial and consumer use is increasingly using a utility. Both residential and commercial infrastructure construction uses surface-treating chemicals. This is because chemical treatment produces wear- and corrosion-resistant properties. The development of heavy machinery is boosting the market for chemical surface treatments because it is necessary to control friction and protect heavy machinery from wear.
- The adoption of new technologies can aid in minimizing environmental effects that drive market expansion
The market share for surface treatment chemicals is the development of novel technologies to lessen the environmental impact of conventional automobile surface treatment processes. Over the past few years, numerous paint manufacturers have introduced environmentally friendly pre-coating chemical conversion treatment agents for auto bodies, which could aid in lowering the production of hazardous materials and industrial waste. The need for surface treatment in construction will also be fueled by increased residential construction and high spending on home improvement projects, allowing concrete surfaces to achieve the desired durability.
Opportunities
- Industrialization's expansion increases consumer demand
The market for chemical surface treatments will also grow more quickly due to industrialization's progress. The advancements in heavy machinery will also provide market participants with lucrative opportunities during the forecast period. Solid and wear-resistant metals are also used in the building and construction industry for interior surfaces in residential and commercial structures.
- Government programs have produced opportunities for the market to expand
In the upcoming years, the market for chemical surface treatment will continue to grow due to the numerous efforts made by governments of various regions to attract investments from multiple companies. The government is implementing several support programs, including the i12 financial assistance and incentive program, among others, to draw in foreign investment, which can subsequently improve the nation's industrial sector in the future. Plans to boost the economy with USD 45.3 billion for infrastructure development are included in the government's 2021 budget. A rise in market for machinery and equipment and, consequently, lubricants used in it will result from using this money to upgrade infrastructure related to energy, agriculture, transportation, housing, water and sanitation, and digital infrastructure.
Restraints/Challenges
- Stringent Regulations
The market for chemical surface treatment will experience challenges due to the strict government regulations regarding higher levels of volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions during the process. Reducing production-related emissions of hazardous chemicals, preventing the introduction of new, unsafe chemicals onto the market, standardizing safety testing procedures, ensuring test quality to avoid duplicative testing, and avoiding non-tariff trade barriers. But more work is necessary.
- Increased Operational Costs
An obstacle for the market for chemical surface treatments is anticipated to be the high chemical consumption caused by poor quality. As a result, the market for chemical surface treatment will face difficulties in terms of growth.
