Hydrophilic coatings have low frictions & soluble coating that is applied to medical devices such as catheters, guide wires, and cannulas. It further reduces occurrences of inflammation & damage caused by medical devices, when they are used on any patient. These coatings demonstrate water attracting characteristics that reacts on water and produces hydro-gel material, which are wet table & lubricious and suitable for biological interactions. They are also used in optical devices for instance camera windows, outdoor displays, outdoor surveillance, etc. These coatings are also used in automotive parts such as body for glazing and rear-view mirrors as an anti-fog agent.
According to study, “Global Hydrophilic Coating Market to reach USD 16.5 billion by 2026” the key companies operating in the global hydrophilic coating market are Aculon, Inc., Teleflex Incorporated, Koninklijke DSM N.V., Harland Medical Systems, Surface Solutions Group, LLC, Pangolin Medical, Surmodics, Inc., Henniker Plasma, BioInteractions Ltd., Henkel AG & Co.
