Industry Trends and Drivers:
- Environmental Regulations and Sustainability Demands:
The growing concern about environmental regulation and sustainability is driving the market's growth. Solvent-based coatings often include volatile organic compounds (VOCs), which can lead to air pollution and are dangerous to health. Governments and regulations across the globe are continuously setting lower limits on VOC emissions to force industries to adopt more sustainable options. Radiation curable coatings, including ultraviolet (UV) and electron beam (EB) curing, eliminate solvents and significantly reduce VOC emissions; they also typically used lower energy while producing minimal waste to satisfy global sustainability goals. Radiation curable systems are appealing solutions to manufacturers to comply with regulations and meet consumer 'green' preferences. For example, there are strong efforts to reduce environmental footprint in automotive, electronics, and packaging sectors.
- Technological Advancements and Improved Performance:
Developments in radiation curing technologies are greatly improving the performance and utility of radiation curable coatings. Improvements in UV and electron beam (EB) curing systems allow faster curing times, higher efficiency, and better coating properties (hardness, adhesion, and resistance to chemicals and abrasion). These improvements in curing technologies make radiation curable coatings very attractive for a range of industrial applications, including automotive, electronics, medical devices, and packaging. Furthermore, in the automobile market, faster curing times can boost production lines and save on manufacturing costs, while still delivering a durable, high-quality coating. In electronics, the ability to be precise and the ability to cure coatings on sensitive, sometimes complicated, structures allows a coating to perform loyally. More so, the ability to develop formulations to try and meet targeted goals only adds to the utility of radiation curable coatings.
- Growing Demand in High-Performance Industries:
Because of strong demand in high-performance sectors, the market is experiencing growth opportunities. Certain industries, including automotive, electronics, aerospace and consumer medical devices require coatings that provide superior performance metrics, including toughness, chemical resistance, and aesthetics. Furthermore, radiation curable coatings can provide enhanced performance characteristics in terms of fast curing times, adhesion, and the formation of durable protective coatings. For example, the automotive industry has several applications where radiation curable coatings are utilized, including clear coats, primers, and functional coatings which augment vehicles' aesthetics and life expectancy. In the electronics industry, high-performance radiation curable coatings are employed to protect sensitive components against contaminants while ensuring the components are reliable when in use. The aerospace industry adopts lightweight, high-performance and UV resistant radiation curable coatings as they add performance whilst affording the (aviation sector) fuel efficiency. Furthermore, the medical device industry benefits from radiation curable coatings for surfaces to provide biocompatible and sterilizable surfaces.
