Coating is one of the prominent technique for adding value to textile. It is a process in which a polymeric layer is applied directly on one or both the surface of fabric. Coatings add real value to textiles by improving and extending their performance. Textile coatings are used in various industries and applications, due to their features such as fire resistance, waterproofing, anti-scratch, anti-abrasion, soil & stain repellence, heat stability, and breathability. Textile coating contains polymeric binders along with other additives (such as colorants, adhesion promoter, biocide, and plasticizers), which are applied in the form of a solution or dispersion or a paste.
Several industries such as automotive, aerospace, and building & construction require textile coatings for gloves, cut-resistant materials, clothing, fire protection clothing, and high visibility clothing. Textile coatings include isocyanates, polyols, acetylene, hydrogen cyanide, chlorine, ethylene, styrene, butadiene, and acrylonitrile, which are the major raw materials. Increase in demand for waterproof, high-quality, and heat-resistant fabrics is a key factor that drives the growth textile coatings market.
Global color and specialty chemicals company, Archroma launched a water-based textile coating binder, Appretan NTR, based on natural resources. This is a water-based textile coating made from tea bags, coffee filters, or capsules. Increase in demand of eco-friendly products and concern regarding environment fuel the demand for eco-friendly textile coatings, thereby augmenting the growth of the market.
The global textile coatings market is currently experiencing a stable growth. This is attributed to the fact that companies have been focusing on producing new products for specific applications, as there are unpredictable demands based on the utilization. Textile coatings possess resistance to heat, water, grease, scratch, and soil, thus making the fabrics durable. Improvement in quality standards in developed economies and surge in purchasing power & lifestyle changes are the factors contributing toward the growth of the clothing industry.
