Our researchers analyzed the data with 2023 as the base year, along with the key drivers, trends, and challenges. A holistic analysis of drivers will help companies refine their marketing strategies to gain a competitive advantage.
One of the key factors driving the thermal barrier coatings market growth is the increasing demand for fuel-efficient aircraft and gas turbine engines. The need for minimizing emissions is fuelling the demand for fuel-efficient aircraft and gas turbine engines, which is driving major growth of the global thermal barrier coatings market. In addition, thermal barriers are cutting-edge coatings that offer an essential answer to coating alternatives by improving the longevity and performance of engine parts exposed to high temperatures.
For example, thermal barrier coatings are used in Pratt & Whitney PurePower Geared Turbofan engines to lower emissions and increase fuel efficiency. In addition, these coatings are used in the aerospace industry, such as on the Boeing 787 Dreamliner, to improve fuel efficiency. Furthermore, the increased focus on emission reduction and fuel efficiency highlights the vital role that thermal barrier coatings play, making them a key player in the global market for these technologies. Hence, such factors are positively impacting the thermal barrier coatings market. Therefore, it is expected to drive the market growth during the forecast period.
A key factor shaping the thermal barrier coatings market growth is the growing use of advanced thermal barrier coating materials. There is a growing tendency in the global thermal barrier coatings market towards the use of cutting-edge materials such as rare earth oxides and yttria-stabilized zirconia to improve the efficacy of thermal barrier coatings. In addition, due to its remarkable thermal and chemical stability, yttria-stabilized zirconia is highly valued and plays a vital role in safeguarding turbine components used in power production and aviation.
Moreover, in sectors such as aerospace and automotive, rare earth rare-earth oxides including lanthanum and cerium provide exceptional resilience to high temperatures, enabling these coatings to endure harsh circumstances. In addition, these cutting-edge materials are essential for satisfying industry demands for more robust and effective thermal barrier coatings in order to lower maintenance costs and increase energy efficiency. Hence, such factors are driving the market growth during the forecast period.
High production and application costs of thermal barrier coatings are one of the key challenges hindering the thermal barrier coatings market growth. The global thermal barrier coatings market is associated with the high cost of production and application that especially affects businesses where cost is a concern. In addition, these coatings, which raise costs since they are necessary to safeguard important components in high-temperature conditions, call for sophisticated materials and exact application techniques.
For instance, the expense of creating and implementing thermal barrier coatings might be unaffordable in the aerospace industry, where engine components must have extraordinary heat resistance. In addition, gas turbines in the power generating sector gain from these coatings, although their widespread application may be hindered by the expense of implementation, particularly in areas where cost-effectiveness is crucial. Hence, such factors are negatively impacting the thermal barrier coatings market. Therefore, it is expected to hinder the market growth during the forecast period.
