(MENAFN- PR Newswire) DUBLIN, Aug. 30, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- The "The Global Market for Durable Water Repellent (DWR) Coatings 2024-2034" report has been added to
ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
This report delves into the world of
DWR Coatings, analyzing their chemistry, properties, application processes, and environmental considerations.
In the ever-evolving landscape of surface coatings, Durable Water Repellent (DWR) Coatings have emerged as a transformative solution. These coatings create hydrophobic surfaces that possess the unique ability to repel water while allowing the passage of water vapor.
The driving forces behind the growth of DWR Coatings are twofold: the increasing demand for water-resistant fabrics and the imperative to extend the longevity of buildings by preventing water damage and the growth of mold.
Among the varichemistries, fluoropolymers like PTFE stand out for their exceptional water repellency and non-reactive nature, although environmental concerns have paved the way for alternatives such as hydrocarbons, silicones, nanocoatings, bio-based options, and smart coatings.
Notably, textiles represent the largest application segment for these coatings, solidifying their role in diverse industries seeking effective water protection solutions.
Report contents include:
DWR coatings types covered include: Fluoropolymers. Hydrocarbons. Silicones, Silanes, & Siloxanes. Nanocoatings. Hybrid coatings. Bio-based Smart DWR coatings
Limitations of current DWR chemistries. Market drivers and challenges. Analysis of markets for DWR coatings including: Analysis of key market players, textile mills and fabric finishers providing durable water repellent (DWR) treatments. Global market revenues for DWR Coatings, by chemistry, end-use market and regions, historical and forecast to 2034. Profiles of 144 chemical manufacturers, product developers, coating producers and start-ups.
