Nanocoatings are thin film coatings ranging from a few nanometers to microns in thickness that leverage nanomaterials to enhance properties like corrosion resistance, wear resistance, conductivity, flame retardancy, anti-bacterialism and a wide range of other functionalities. Major types include anti-corrosion, anti-fingerprint, self-cleaning, thermal barrier, UV-resistant, antimicrobial, hydrophobic, oleophobic, anti-scratch, anti-fogging, and conductive nanocoatings.
The use of advanced, protective nanocoatings to mitigate bacteria, viruses, static, fouling and environmental damage is growing. Conductive coatings are also finding wide application in energy (mainly batteries) and electronics markets and making significant inroads in healthcare, filtration membrane and hygiene markets. Major market opportunities exist in photocatalytic, antimicrobial, battery, antistatic, food packaging, and waterproof electronics coatings. Nanocoatings are considered safe, non-toxic, and eco-friendly while outperforming traditional coatings.
Markets for nanocoatings covered include:
- Aviation and aerospace (Thermal protection, Icing prevention, Conductive and anti-static, Corrosion resistant, Insect contamination).
