Photocatalytic coatings create hydrophilic surfaces that facilitate the breakdown and removal of organic and inorganic contaminants, preventing the accumulation of dirt, grime, and organic matter.

 

Photocatalytic coatings might not be compatible with all types of surfaces and substrates, limiting their applicability in certain environments or industries. The effectiveness of photocatalytic coatings can be influenced by environmental conditions, such as light intensity, humidity, and pollution levels, leading to variability in performance. Some photocatalytic coatings have a limited absorption range within the light spectrum, making them effective only under specific light conditions. Thus, the risks associated with Photocatalytic coatings may drive down the acceptance rate, further hampering the business growth.
 

COVID-19 Impact

The construction industry, a significant user of photocatalytic coatings, faced disruptions due to lockdowns, labor shortages, and supply chain issues during the pandemic. This impacted the demand for these coatings in construction projects. Thus, the reduced number of COVID-19 cases and implementation of subsequent strategies by government and non-government organizations is anticipated to drive the industry expansion in the upcoming years.
 

Photocatalytic Coatings Market Trends
