UV coatings is an eco-friendly compound that is mainly used to inhibit harmful UV rays coming from the sun. The UV rays degrade the color quality of paper and plastics and hence, UV coating on paper, wood, and plastics material provides the required protection and gloss to the surface. UV coatings are mainly available as water-based coatings and solvent-based coatings. UV coatings are manufactured using various compositions such as Monomers, Oligomers (Polyesters, Polyether, etc.), additives, and photo-initiator. In terms of UV coatings End Use, UV coatings are majorly used in the paper & packaging and wood furnishing industry. Other end users of UV coatings include electronics, automotive, building & construction, etc.
Market Dynamics
Growing demand for eco-friendly coatings and rising demand from the automotive industry for eco-friendly solutions are projected to increase the demand for UV coatings globally. However, restrictions on some UV coatings for food packaging application is hampering the growth of the UV coatings market globally. Furthermore,UV curable inks and coatings were first used as a greener alternative to solvent-based inks and coatings. Traditional heat and air drying uses solvent evaporation, which reduces the initial coating application by more than 50% while emitting pollutants into the environment. UV formulations are composed of liquid monomers and oligomers that have been combined with a small number of photoinitiators before being exposed to UV light. In a matter of seconds, the formulation – inks, coatings, or adhesives – "hardens" or cures, making it ready for the next processing step.
