Nanocoatings market size is forecast to reach US$22.5 billion by 2027, after growing at a CAGR of 20.1% during 2022-2027.

Nanocoatings market size is forecast to reach US$22.5 billion by 2027, after growing at a CAGR of 20.1% during 2022-2027. Nanocoatings is a special type of nanoparticle coating that is made using carbon nanotubes which accelerate the reaction of forming activated oxygen from water by capturing the ultraviolet light in the presence of titanium dioxide. The nanocoatings help in enhancing the material and give flame retardant, anti-corrosion, anti-dust and many other features to the objects having nanocoatings. These are widely used in various end-use industries such as electronics, automotive, medical, marine coating and others. According to the International Organization of Motor Vehicle Manufacturers, the total car production is around 5,70,54,295 units and total commercial vehicle production is 2,30,91,693 in 2021 with an annual growth of 3% as compared to 2020. The rise in automotive production will eventually boost the demand for the nanocoatings market. However, due to covid 19 pandemic, the market has declined in 2020 owing to the shutdown of the manufacturing facilities to reduce the spread of the virus. But the market is expected to follow an increasing trend due to the growing consumption from the various end-use sector during the forecast period.
