The global polymer coating market size was valued at $8.9 billion in 2021, and is projected to reach $16.2 billion by 2031, registering a CAGR of 6.2% from 2022 to 2031.
Polymer coating refers to a protective layer applied to a surface that is made of a polymer material. It is used to protect from environmental factors such as moisture, heat, and chemicals. In addition to that, polymer coating is used to improve the appearance of a surface, increase its durability, or add other desirable properties, such as non-stick or anti-corrosive properties. Polymer coatings are classified into several types on the basis of their chemical composition, including epoxy, polyurethane, acrylic, polyester, and fluoropolymer coatings.
There has been an increase in government initiatives in emerging countries for polymer coating, driven by the increase in demand for high-quality coating materials in various industries. These initiatives support the development and adoption of polymer coating technologies and promote sustainable economic growth. According to the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), DOE provides funding and support for research and development in advanced materials and coatings, to improve energy efficiency and reduce environmental impact in various industries.
In China, the government has implemented a series of policies and programs to support the development of the polymer industry, including the Made in China 2025 initiative, which aims to upgrade the country's manufacturing capabilities and develop high-tech industries such as advanced materials and coatings. All these factors increase the demand for the polymer coating.
The cost of producing polymer coating by heat cure process is still relatively high, making them more expensive. Polymer coatings are typically applied in thin layers and may not be suitable for applications where thick coatings are required. Proper surface preparation is required for the effective adhesion of polymer coatings, which can add time and cost to the application process. The lifespan of polymer coatings may be limited, particularly in high-stress applications where wear and tear can cause the coating to degrade over time. All these factors allow consumers to choose alternatives over polymer coatings, which hampers the market growth.
The rising demand for energy-efficient buildings can be attributed to several factors, including the increase in awareness of the environmental impact, the need to reduce energy costs, and the desire for more comfortable, and healthier living and working spaces. Polymer coatings can improve building energy efficiency by insulating walls and roofs. This can lower the cost of the HVAC system and improve indoor comfort levels.
The International Energy Conservation Code (IECC) is a model building energy code that provides minimum requirements for the design and construction of energy-efficient buildings. IECC is an important tool for promoting the development and adoption of energy-efficient buildings by establishing minimum energy efficiency requirements for new and renovated buildings. Moreover, polymer coatings can protect building surfaces from weathering that is caused due to climate change. It is particularly important for exterior surfaces such as roofs, walls, and windows.
Polymer coating provides waterproofing to building surfaces such as foundations, roofs, and balconies which prevents water damage and protects the structural integrity of the building. Moreover, it has fire resistance ability for building surfaces such as walls, floors, and ceilings. This can help to prevent the spread of fire and improve the safety of the building. In addition to that, polymer coatings can provide a range of decorative finishes to building surfaces, enhancing their appearance and adding value to the building. All these factors have escalated the demand for polymer coating in buildings.

IMPACT OF KEY REGULATION ON THE GLOBAL POLYMER COATINGS MARKET
Department of Transportation (DOT)
The DOT regulates the use of polymer coatings in transportation applications such as coatings for bridges and highways. This includes regulations related to the performance and durability of coatings in harsh environmental conditions, requirements for testing and certification of new coatings.
Standards for polymer coating
AASHTO M245 is a standard specification developed by the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) for polymer-coated corrugated steel pipe. The polymer coating used in this specification should be a thermoplastic material that is resistant to abrasion, weathering, and chemical attack. The thickness of the polymer coating should be specified by the purchaser.
ASTM D3359 is a standard test method developed by the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) for measuring the adhesion of coatings to substrates using tape. This method is commonly referred to as the tape test. The tape test involves applying adhesive tape to a coated surface and then removing the tape at a specific angle and rate. The amount of coating removed by the tape is then evaluated based on a numerical rating scale, ranging from 0B (no coating removed) to 5B (more than 65% of the coating removed).
