UV/electron beam (EB)-cure coatings continue to gain momentum as more coatings manufacturers have recognized their considerable environmental benefits, apart from their high performance and faster assembly line advantages. UV curable coatings will gain special significance over the next ten years, as volatile organic compound (VOC) regulations become more stringent. Coating companies are also focusing on other promising areas such as waterborne technology formulations. “Automotive OEM coating market participants can also feel optimistic about the significant rise in the number of vehicles built in Asia Pacific countries such as China and India,” notes Easwaran.
