In working situations requiring resistance to heat, chemicals, or cleanroom conditions, low friction coatings increase performance and service life while reducing the need for wet lubricants. Low friction coatings lessen the potential to stick and take up particles from the counter surface, resulting in less cleaning downtime. As a result, anti-adhesive chemicals may be eliminated while creating tool programs. Low-friction coatings have grown in popularity in recent years because they aid to enhance surface properties such as wettability, corrosion resistance, adhesion, and wear resistance. The growing application of low-friction coatings in various industries is also projected to boost market expansion in the near future.
Covid-19 Impact Analysis
- COVID-19 has had a significant influence on the global economy in three ways: Directly impacting production and demand, causing supply chain and market disruption, and having a financial impact on enterprises and financial markets. Because of the pandemic scenario, various governments around the world went into lockdown to prevent the virus from spreading.
- Supply and demand chain interruptions caused by lockdowns have a severe impact on a variety of end-user businesses, including transportation and packaging. However, the situation is likely to improve in 2021, benefiting the market over the projection period.
- On the other hand, rising worries about plastic waste and the detrimental effects of the COVID-19 epidemic are projected to stymie the market's growth.
Top Impacting Factors
Low-friction coatings have been increasingly popular in recent years as a result of their ability to improve surface properties like wettability, corrosion resistance, adhesion, and wear resistance. The growing application of low-friction coatings in a variety of industries is projected to drive market growth soon. Furthermore, low-friction coatings manufacturers are developing new products to meet the growing need for application-specific products. Low friction thin film coatings, which allow surfaces to rub against one another with less friction and wear, are becoming more popular as environmental limits on the use of lubricants tighten and disposal costs rise. As a result, a low coefficient of friction coating is used to improve the tribological qualities of metal cutting and shaping tools, as well as machine components such as sliding bearings, seals, and valves, which are constantly expanding.
