Ice-resistant Coatings Market, by Material (Oil-Impregnated Polymer, Lubricants and gels, Nanoparticle deposition, Others) and, by APPLICATION (Aircrafts, Ships, Solar Panels, Overhead lines, Wind Turbines, Others): Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2023-2032

Ice-resistant coatings is one of the anti-icing techniques used in the prevention of ice formation on wide variety of surfaces. Ice removal techniques such as anti-icing and de-icing are of great importance in a wide range of industries. Formation of ice on aircraft, ships, solar panels, power lines, and wind turbines decreases the operating performance. This leads to increase in drag, poor aerodynamic performance in case of wind turbine, and decrease in output capacity of solar panels. In recent years, there is incredible development in ice-resistant materials for coatings. As an instance, nanoparticle deposition, phase switching liquids (PSL), and slippery liquid-infused porous surfaces (SLIPS) are the upcoming research topics for the global ice-resistant coatings market.

Ice-repellent coatings can have significant impact on the global energy saving and improving safety. Further, these coatings provide improved efficiency, better operating performance, and lower cost alternative as compared to de-icing techniques. Such factors are expected to drive the growth of the global ice-resistant coatings market. However, leaf-inspired super hydrophobic surfaces fail in high humidity conditions due to water freezing is expected to restraint market growth in the near future. Nevertheless, recent R&D initiatives developed for advancement in ice-repellent material is expected to offer future growth opportunities to the market. One such initiative is development of slippery liquid-infused porous surfaces (SLIPS) based ice-repellent material, which resists ice formation. SLIPS is an ultra-smooth and slippery surface maintained by infusing water-immiscible liquid into a nanostructure surface, which repels ice coatings formation on surfaces. 

The global ice-resistant coatings market is segmented based on material, application, and region. On the basis of material, the market is classified into oil-impregnated polymer, lubricants and gels, nanoparticle deposits, and others. Based on application, the market is categorized into aircrafts, ships, solar panels, overhead lines, and others. Region-wise, the market is analyzed across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and LAMEA.

Key players operating in the global ice-resistant coatings market are Aerospace and Advanced Composites (AAC) GmbH, Helicity Technologies, NEI Corporation, Akita Innovations LLC, Oceanit Laboratories, Hygratek Solutions, Adaptive Surface Technologies, PHAZEBREAK Coatings, LLC, Wicetec Ice Prevention System, and Thermo Cermet. These major companies are adopting a number of strategies such as product launch, research, developments in coating surfaces and others to maintain competitive edge in the market. In an instance, Helicity technologies had developed super hydrophobic spray coating Ice Shield that repels water, ice, and snow. It is expected that such initiatives are anticipated to increase the research and development in ice-resistant coatings market in the upcoming future.
