Application Insights
Coatings are used to protect ferrous parts in chemical and construction industries from corrosion. Polyphenylene sulfide coatings can be applied using methods such as slurry coating, electrostatic coating on cold or hot surfaces, powder flocking, or fluidized bed coating. However, these techniques require subsequent oven curing, leading to the coatings being exposed to temperatures in the range of 300 °C to 3700 °C. This process limits the use of PPS coatings on large surfaces since they cannot be accommodated in the oven.
Regional Insights
Robust manufacturing base of automotive vehicles in U.S. is projected to exhibit a positive influence on the polyphenylene sulfide industry in near future. Growing demand for the product from the U.S. aerospace industry owing to the surge in commercial flying is likely to further boost this growth. Accelerated replacement of obsolete aircraft with next-generation, fuel-efficient aircraft is further expected to spur the commercial aerospace sector in the country.
Automotive industry is one of the significant sectors in Germany and produces more than 6 million vehicles including passenger and commercial vehicles every year. Germany is one of the leading manufacturers of passenger vehicles among the European Union countries. The country’s automotive market accounts for over 29% of the total automobile industry share in Europe. Growing automotive industry in Germany is likely to promote growth of PPS market in the future.
