Hard coatings provide plastic materials with more abrasion resistance and a harder surface, allowing them to be used in a wider range of applications. Polycarbonate is an extremely robust and adaptable material. Additionally, these coatings boost the chemical resilience of plastic materials, which are typically susceptible to harm from harsh chemicals. UV resistance, anti-microbial qualities, and anti-glare are a few additional characteristics that can be added to hard coatings. Depending on the hard coatings formulation, the degree of abrasion and chemical resistance can change. Some coatings have reduced abrasion resistance yet a longer lifespan when exposed to weathering conditions outside. Many substrates, including Polycarbonate, PMMA, PET, PVC, and PETg, can be coated with hard coatings in sheet form or molded forms.
Hard coatings are now used to protect cutting and forming tools as well as automotive components from wear. Functional coatings (such as switchable coatings, glass coatings, and optical coatings) and decorative coatings require wear protection as well, though mechanical wear plays a slightly different role.
COVID-19 Impact: Pandemic Slowed the Global Growth
The global expansion of the hard coating market has been restrained by the COVID-19 pandemic epidemic. Production businesses are coping with the pandemic's disruption of demand and supply chains as a result of the closure of manufacturing plants. Growth in the medical and healthcare industry in the post-pandemic era is anticipated to support the hard coating market as it helps increase instrument efficiency. Therefore, coronavirus is having a significant effect on the development of the engineered foam industry.
Industries start to suffer as economic activity slows. The market insight reports and intelligence services offered by DBMR take into account the expected effects of the economic slump on the pricing and accessibility of the items.
