Rise in Demand for Water Proof, Scratch Proof, Heat Resistant Fabrics: Key Factor Driving Textile Coating Market By 2016 – 2024

Textile coating is a process wherein a layer is applied directly to both the faces of fabrics. The formulation of coating is complex and requires chemicals based on the type of fabric. Coatings used in textiles are polymers, which are long chain linear molecules. They also possess crosslinking ability. The properties of these polymeric materials influences the durability and performance of end product.  The coated fabric is then heated and the coating is secured. Textile coating helps inculcate properties such as water resistance, insulation, soil and grease resistance, scratch resistance, stiffness, and heat resistance properties to the fiber.

A thick coating is achieved by applying multiple layers of coatings on the surface of fabrics. The interlayer adhesion needs to be high during the application of multiple layers. Finally, a thin top layer is applied to enhance the esthetic or technical property of the coating. The method of application of coating must be versatile with minimum tension must be applied on the fiber to reduce the chances of distortion.
Rise in demand for water proof, scratch proof, and heat resistant fabrics is the key factor driving the market for textile coating. The textile coating industry is experiencing rapid innovations such as the introduction of nanotechnology in coating fibers. Companies can avail opportunities to come up with an antibacterial coating with self-healing properties.
The textile coating market can be segmented based on the level of fabric coating into fabric level, yarn level, and filament/fiber level. Fabric level coating is the traditional method of coating, while yarn level and fiber level are advanced methodologies. Based on the type of polymers used, the textile coating market can be divided into Poly Vinyl Chloride (PVC), silicone, polyurethane, natural rubber, and neoprene. The type of polymer coating used depends upon the type of usage of the fiber and the physical properties required.
The market for textile coating can also be segregated in terms of end-user application in agricultural industry (bulk containers, pond liners), construction industry (conveyer belting, safety vests), clothing industry (shoes, rainwear, leather, garments), home furnishing (carpet backing, sofa covers, curtains), medical industry (medical gloves, implants), transportation (seating of automobiles), sport (rainwear, football, shoes), and packaging (sacks, liquid bulk containers).
Based on region, the textile coating market can be segmented into North America, Asia Pacific, Latin America, Europe, and Middle East & Africa. Asia Pacific is expected to dominate the textile coating market due to the expansion in the textile industry in emerging economies such as China and India. Additionally, increase in urban population in these emerging economies is likely to boost the home décor market; textile coating is used extensively in home décor. Europe is also anticipated to account for significant share of the textile coating market, led by the rise in export of textiles and increase in production of textiles in Germany, Italy, and Spain. Leather is used extensively in the clothing, transportation, sports, and packaging industries. Leather is coated with textile to make it durable and rigid. The outlook for the textile coating market in Asia Pacific, primarily in China and India, appears promising owing to the significant growth in the leather industry.
Key players operating in the textile coating market include Ajy Tech India Pvt. Ltd, Visen Industries Limited, Nobletex Industries Limited, Schaette America Inc., William Birch Engineers Limited, DSM, PNP Polytex Pvt. Ltd, and Arville Textiles Limited.

Superabrasives (Turning, Cutting, Buffing, Drilling, Boring, Grinding) Market Research Report 2025

An abrasive is a material which molds or provides finishing to a work piece through a process which includes buffing, grinding, cutting, as well as polishing. Abrasion typically depends on the difference in the hardness of the material and the abrasive (with the latter being the harder of the two). Unlike regular abrasion where any two solid materials that repeatedly rub against each other tend to wear away, superabrasives possess the kind of hardness that enables them to stay usable for a longer period of time. On the basis of hardness, the top two superabrasives include diamond and cubic boron nitride (CBN). Industrial diamonds used as superabrasives are exceptionally hard materials. However, they display several technological limitations. For instance, when a diamond comes in contact with a ferrous alloy such as steel or a nickel superalloy, the resulting formation of carbide leads to its abrasion. Also, a diamond-containing tool can only be used at moderate temperatures a...

Virtual pipeline system market - Demand of cleaner energy alternatives, Trends 2025

Powered by the advancing concerns over renewability of energy sources has affected the natural gas industry positively. The transportation of oil and natural gas in a brisk, albeit safe manner has never been such an urgent requirement. With pipelines being the most common approach, they are the primary choice of supply of energy sources. Physical pipelines, being confined to specific geography, are not found to be effective in terms of unfeasible terrains or technically inaccessible areas. As a result, the virtual pipeline industry has been gaining recognition, and is slated to be one of the fastest growing markets in the upcoming years. According to a report published by Transparency Market Research (TMR), the global virtual pipeline industry is anticipated to witness a steady growth during the forecast period of 2017-2025. The industry opportunity is expected to be supported by the brisk acceleration of the demand of transportation of liquid energy resources. Industrial space...
