Optical Coatings Market Segments, Opportunity, Growth and Forecast By End-use Industry 2018 - 2028
Posted: May 07, 2018
Market Overview
Optical coating is a blend of thin film layers that create an interference effect, which is used to alter the reflection or transmission properties of an optical system. The performance of an optical coating depends on the difference between the refractive indices of the layer interfaces, the thickness of individual layers and the number of layers. The vacuum deposition segment (by coating technology) is considered as one of the prominent technology segments in the optical coatings market. Vacuum deposition technology provides better thermal stability & mechanical strength to the optical components and is reliable and permits curing at room temperature. The growing demand for extremely versatile coating technologies from various end use industries such as medical, mirror, food packaging, military & defense and aerospace is expected to lead the demand for vacuum deposited optical coatings during the forecast period.
The electronics segment by application is expected to hold a prominent share in the optical coatings market, attributing to the increasing demand for applications such as LED lighting, PCB coatings for widespread protection from tough/harsh environments, florescent lighting, rapid coating of ultra-thin mobile phone keypads, and in various other electronic devices.
