Conductive Coatings Markets, 2010 and Beyond

Conductive Coatings Markets, 2010 and Beyond published by NanoMarkets in September, 2010. This report price starts from US $ 2995.

Introduction

NanoMarkets has been providing analytical coverage of the conductive coatings market for more than three years and has developed an insider' s knowledge of this interesting market. In this new report, we have leveraged this knowledge and identified where the main opportunities in conductive coatings will be found in the next eight years.

In this new report, we have examined the latest technical and market developments in the conductive coatings space. What we have discovered is a growing number of applications where the market is open to new conductive coatings and new suppliers.

In particular, we have looked at the new business revenue opportunities for conductive coatings that are emerging from developments in the display, lighting, solar panel, battery and sensor markets. And we have been especially careful to provide coverage of the how the maker of conductive coatings can capitalize on such trends as the growth in e-paper and touch-screen displays and the resurgence of crystalline silicon photovoltaics.

But in addition to such specialized, high-performance applications, this report also looks at new opportunities for bulk conductive coatings used for electrostatic discharge (ESD) and EMI/RFI protection. These application areas for conductive coatings were once considered slow growth, but the onward march of Moore' s Law and of wireless communications has transformed this sector into one that has much greater potential than ever before:

• NanoMarkets expects that antistatic coatings for packaging and industrial clothing are likely to see a boom as feature sizes decrease. With the semiconductor industry about to move beyond the 45-nm node, antistatic coatings are becoming increasingly essential in electronics packaging, as well as for the clothing and furniture used in the electronics industry.
• The coatings used for EMI/RFI shielding are also likely to see solid growth with the main driver being the shift of computing and communications from wired to wireless.

For this report we have analyzed the market at four main classes of conductive coatings. These are metals, metallic oxides, conductive polymers and nanomaterials. We discuss the latest technical and commercial developments and latest materials that area appearing on the scene, such as graphene and nanomaterials substitutes for ITO.

As with all NanoMarkets reports, this report includes a detailed eight-year forecast of conductive coatings markets by application and material and it also provides an in-depth discussion of key materials suppliers and other firms active in this space. With regard to the forecast we have taken into consideration the latest pricing expectations for the materials involved.
