Global Market for Sol-Gel Coatings 2020 to 2030 - ResearchAndMarkets.com

DUBLIN--()--The "The Global Market for Sol-Gel Coatings 2020-2030" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

Organic/inorganic hybrid coatings prepared via the sol-gel process have garnered considerable research and commercial interest for application on glass, metallic and polymeric substrates.

The sol-gel process is considered attractive due to simple processing and relative low-cost, resulting in the creation of multi-functional, protective surfaces. This is due to the unique structure and properties of silica-based coatings and of hybrid inorganic-organic silicas in particular.

Enhanced coatings and surfaces obtained via this low-temperature route display a large range of bulk and surface properties that can be tailored by specific applications. The versatility of sol-gel coatings has enabled solutions in industries such as electronics, optics, solar energy harvesting, aerospace, automotive engineering, marine protection, textiles and healthcare. The sol-gel method also allows for control of the synthesis of multifunctional hybrid materials, where the organic, inorganic and, in some cases, biological precursors and polymers are mixed at a nanometer scale.

Properties that can be achieved with sol-gel coatings include:

  • Hydrophobic surfaces;
  • Anti-fingerprinting;
  • Oleophobic surfaces;
  • Anti-microbial surfaces;
  • Easy to clean surfaces;
  • Protective transparent coatings;
  • Corrosion resistance;
  • Low friction;
  • Chemical resistance;
  • Free of fluoropolymers;
  • Antistatic surfaces;
  • Conducting/semi-conducting surfaces;
  • Extreme mechanical wear-resistant properties;
  • UV protection.
