Hydrophilic Coatings Market is touted to have a towering growth at an outstanding CAGR during the forecast period (2017-2023). Hydrophilic coatings are used for reducing surface friction and enhancing lubricity. They are low friction and wet table coatings that has cross-linked polymer coating that uptakes the liquid readily when exposed to the source. It is used on medical devices namely cannulas, catheters and guide wires. The hydrophilic coatings help in reducing the damage and inflammation that results from medical devices when used on patients.

Such coatings have water attracting characteristics that react on water thereby producing hydrogel material that is wettable and lubricious and ideal for biological interactions. The hydrophilic coatings are used in auto parts namely rear-view mirrors and body for glazing in the form of anti-fog agents and also in optical devices namely outdoor displays, outdoor surveillance, camera windows and others. Owing to its high lubricity level, such coatings allows devices in navigating the tortuous anatomical pathways thereby reducing tissue irritation as well as adding to the comfort of the patient.
There are several factors that is propelling the growth of the hydrophilic coatings market. These factors according to MRFR (Market Research Future) report include increasing use of hydrophilic coatings in various application industries namely optical, marine, automotive, medical devices & equipment and others, massive boost in expenditure on various high-end medical devices owing to constant requirement for proper healthcare and medical facilities, aging population, increasing health awareness, rising income level, growing awareness regarding new medical practices and accessibility of improved healthcare amenities. On the contrary, strict regulation laid down by the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) for 510K Clearance may hinder hydrophilic coatings market growth.
Market Segmentation:
Market Research Future report offers a comprehensive segmental analysis of the hydrophilic coatings market on the basis of substrate and application.
Based on substrates, it is segmented into nanoparticles, metals, glass and ceramics, polymers and others. Of these, polymers will have the largest share in the market during the forecast period.
