Hard Coatings Research Report- Forecast to 2023

1 Introduction: Hard coating, also known as hard coat anodizing or hard anodizing, is an electrochemical coating technique. This process involves anodization of sulfuric acid by using an electrolyte concentration, varying temperature, and electric current, which results in the hardened surface. The hard coatings find their uses in numerous applications starting from industrial coatings, tools, equipment, ball bearings, gear and pneumatic components to medical tools and equipment. Apart from this, they are used in lenses coatings to make them scratch resistant and improve their durability. These types of coatings confer some important properties to the substrate material such as resistant to corrosion, wear & tear, heat, and electricity. Additionally, hard coatings offer low friction coefficient after lubrication.

On account of these characteristic features of the product, the global hard coatings market is likely to register robust growth in the coming years.

The scope of applications in the global hard coatings market is continuously increasing with the flourishing end-use industries such as building & construction, marine, aerospace & defense, along with the automotive industry. Need for the protective coatings on tools, equipment, and end decorative parts in building & construction industry is posing as a major demand driver in the market. Moreover, there is an increasing use of hard coatings in various industrial applications in order to protect machinery and equipment, which function in the harsh environment. This, in turn, is anticipated to propel the growth of the market in the coming years. However, the capital-intensive nature of the processes involved in this market is projected to hamper the growth during the period under consideration.

Key Players for Hard Coatings Market: The prominent players in the global hard coatings market are, Sulzer Ltd. (Switzerland), OC Oerlikon Corporation AG (Switzerland), CemeCon AG (Germany), IHI Ionbond AG (Switzerland), Momentive (U.S.), ZEISS International (Germany), ASB Industries, Inc.
