Automotive manufacturers are subject to stringent industry standards and regulations aimed at ensuring vehicle safety, reliability, and performance. These standards often mandate rigorous testing and protection of electronic components against various environmental and operational stresses. Conformal coatings help manufacturers meet these requirements by providing robust protection for electronic circuits and assemblies. Additionally, as vehicles become more connected and autonomous, the importance of protecting electronic components from potential failures and ensuring cybersecurity increases. Adhering to these stringent standards and regulations drives the demand for high-quality conformal coatings, as they are essential for compliance and for maintaining the integrity and functionality of advanced automotive electronics.
Acrylic to be the largest segment, by material type
Acrylic account for a largest share of the conformal coatings market, with broad applications in automotive electronics. This attributes to its cheaper cost than other available coatings and no special requirement of any additional equipment for its application. The acrylic coatings protect electric circuits from moisture, dirt, dust, thermal shocks, and scratches, which could corrode, short circuit, or otherwise damage the electric component. They also provide insulation against high-voltage and static discharges. Additionally, these coatings are fast-curing, free from solvents, and easily reworkable. They produce little or no heat during the curing process, eliminating potential damage to heat-sensitive components.
These coatings provide protection at a lower cost than other conformal coatings. They can withstand temperatures ranging from -65°C to +125°C and are widely used for coating components inside the vehicle cabin as they are not exposed to high temperatures. Acrylic conformal coatings are transparent, insulating, and quick-drying coatings. They are also easy to apply and do not require special equipment.
PCB to be the fastest-growing segment for automotive conformal coatings market, by component.
Printed circuit board (PCB) is responsible for holding together all the exquisite sensors and components required for the efficient operation of an automotive vehicle. Automotive PCB manufacturers need to provide a wide variety of options. The kinds of systems and operations that now use PCBs for enhanced efficiency and safety include rear LED lights and running lights, transmission controls, and comfort control units, among others.
Automotive PCB manufacturers are required to provide PCBs made of materials that can operate at optimum levels in harsh working environments. Automotive manufacturers also face stringent regulatory requirements for vehicle reliability, safety, and environmental performance. Conformal coatings play a vital role in helping automakers meet these standards by safeguarding PCBs against environmental hazards that could compromise their functionality. By enhancing the reliability of electronic systems, conformal coatings contribute to overall vehicle quality and compliance with industry regulations. Hence, conformal coating of PCBs is essential as it helps provide long-term surface insulation. Acrylic is the most common material used to coat these PCBs.
Europe is dominating market in the automotive conformal coating market.
Europe covers the UK, Germany, France, Spain, Italy, and Russia for market analysis. The region is home to several automotive giants and premium vehicle manufacturers, including BMW AG (Germany), Daimler AG (Germany), Fiat (Italy), PSA/Peugeot-Citroen (France), and Volkswagen AG (Germany). These companies are at the forefront of automotive innovation, pushing the boundaries of vehicle performance, safety, and technology. The presence of these manufacturers has significantly increased the demand for high-quality automotive components and materials, including conformal coatings. These coatings are essential for protecting electronic systems in modern vehicles, ensuring their reliability and longevity.
Henkel AG & Co. KGaA (Germany), Electrolube (UK), ALTANA AG (Germany), and CHT Group (Germany) are major conformal coating suppliers in the European region. These suppliers invest heavily in research and development to innovate and improve coating technologies, providing protection for sensitive electronic components. Additionally, the strong supply chain and distribution networks established by these suppliers enable quick and efficient delivery of conformal coatings across Europe. This reliability ensures that manufacturers have regular access to the materials they need to maintain production schedules and quality standards.
Governments in Europe are further implementing strategies to boost their electronics industry, which could create lucrative opportunities for the conformal coatings market in the coming years. Higher passenger car production and mandatory safety system installation lead to more electronic components in European cars than in Asia Pacific, thereby driving the market.
Key Players
The conformal coating market is dominated by globally established players Dow (US), Henkel AG & CO. KGAA (Germany), Chase Corporation (US), H.B. Fuller (US), and Shin-etsu Chemical Co. Ltd. (Japan).
