The hydrophilic coatings market is anticipated to expand at a CAGR of 4.43% throughout the forecast period, from US$17.253 billion in 2024 to US$21.424 billion in 2029.

Hydrophilic coatings are hydrogels that absorb water when in contact with a liquid, diminishing surface friction and lubrication. They are utilized in medical gadgets like catheters, guide wires, and cannulas to decrease friction and make strides in lubricity. The demand for hydrophilic coatings within the healthcare division is anticipated to rise due to an increase in minimally invasive surgeries. Advancements in innovative technology in the healthcare framework are driving the adoption of hydrophilic coatings, empowering smoother inclusion and navigation of medical gadgets, improving patient results, and decreasing procedural complications.

Furthermore, due to their lubricity, hydrophilic coatings are majorly utilized in metal substrates, and with booming metal mining, the requirement for such innovation is evaluated to witness positive expansion. As per the World Economic Forum, Iron ore mine production in 2021 was 2,60,00,00,000 tons, whereas industrial metals production was 18,15,79,892 tons. In 2021, mined iron ore accounted for 93% of all the metals alone. This metal substrate establishes a strong adherence to the coating.

The hydrophilic coatings market is anticipated to rise consistently, which is inferable to their booming applicability in optical gadgets, medical gear, and automotive parts such as windshields. In addition, technological advancements, favorable financial ventures in coating technology to improve total surface performance and strength, and an increasing alignment towards eco-friendly coatings alternatives, have cleared the way for future market expansion.

HYDROPHILIC COATINGS MARKET DRIVERS:

  • The growing automotive industry is anticipated to propel the hydrophilic coatings market growth.

Hydrophilic coatings improve durability, performance, and strength in automotive components, particularly in adverse climate conditions. They, moreover, decrease water buildup, which secures surfaces from corrosion and increases customer satisfaction. Rising economies with increasing middle classes and urbanization will need more vehicles, which in turn will increase demand for hydrophilic coatings.

According to a report published by the European Automobile Manufacturers Association (ACEA), in 2022, the global production of motor vehicles come to 85.4 million, a 5.7% rise from 2021 The number of motor vehicles created in China, Europe, North America, South Asia, South America, and Middle East Africa was 27,222 thousand units, 16,391 thousand units, 14,901 thousand units, 10,230 thousand units, 3,025 thousand units, and 2,294 thousand units, individually in 2022. This reflects the increase in demand for automobiles, which will, in sequence, increase the hydrophilic coatings market growth within the anticipated period.

Additionally, hydrophilic coatings in the automotive industry offer benefits such as progressed fuel effectiveness, improved aesthetics, and predominant adhesion and corrosion resistance. They diminish friction on car parts, secure exteriors from dirt and grime, and are progressively utilized in lightweight materials like aluminum and composites. These can make a positive viewpoint for the hydrophilic coatings market expansion in the years to come.

Hydrophilic Coatings Market Geographical Outlook

  • The Asia Pacific region is anticipated to hold the major market share of hydrophilic coating.

The rising requirement for progressed medical gadgets and the increasing investment per capita in medical gadgets within the nation are anticipated to boost the regional market for hydrophilic coating. Continuous improvement and advancement in the medical industry in developing countries like India are propelling the market for hydrophilic coating. Moreover, the rising automotive division is anticipated to extend the demand for hydrophilic coating as the country's market for vehicles is increasing.

For instance, according to the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting of the Government of India, India aims to accomplish a noteworthy expansion target for its automotive segment, aiming to double its industry size, reaching INR 15 lakh crores by the end of 2024. Over the period from April 2000 to September 2022, the industry saw a significant foreign direct investment (FDI) measuring $33.77 billion. This venture constitutes around 5.48% of the entire FDI inflows into India during that period.

The hydrophilic coating market is anticipated to grow in India owing to the rising automotive division in the nation. According to the Ministry of Heavy Industries India, the automotive industry contributes about 6% of the country's GDP and 35% of the manufacturing GDP. This coating is exceptionally valuable for making electronic and automotive parts waterproof and corrosion-resistant.

The rising technological innovation and the growing automotive division in the countries are anticipated to boost the market for hydrophilic coating in the region. For example, according to the Society of Indian Automobile Manufacturers (SIAM), during the period spanning April 2022 to March 2023, the automotive segment manufactured within India had a total of 2,59,31,867 vehicles. This figure incorporates vehicles that are passenger vehicles, commercial vehicles, three-wheelers, two-wheelers, and quadricycles. This result is an increment from the past year's production of 2,30,40,066 units recorded from April 2021 to March 2022. Subsequently, such a growing automotive industry is anticipated to propel the market within the projected period.
