Hydrophilic Coating Market Share Trends by Manufacturers And Forecast to 2030
Hydrophilic Coating Market Share Overview Hydrophilic coatings are adopted for lubrication enhancement and reduction of the frictional coefficient. These coatings are widely applied to various medical devices such as cannulas, catheters, and guide wires used in non-invasive surgeries including laparoscopic surgery, and endoscopic surgery, among others. The global hydrophilic coatings market is segmented by the substrate into polymers, glass & ceramics, metals, nanoparticles, and others. Among these, the polymer substrate is the leading segment owing to its properties such as resistance to protein absorption and prevention of swelling when exposed to body fluids or tissues. Moreover, it offers excellent lubrication facilitating their smooth application and removal. The metal substrate segment includes aluminum, platinum, nickel, stainless steel, and others. The increasing demand for aluminum metal substrate in lightweight and efficient automotive has augmented the market growth. T
