“The coil coatings have impacted the construction and automobile industry tremendously. The coatings are highly useful for enhancing the sheet life and its usage and aesthetic value. These sheets are being utilized in various industries ranging from aerospace, transport equipment, automotive, factory automation to commercial infrastructure.Coatings are generally classified by the type of binders used. Binders are a polymeric material which gives structure to the paint. These are some of the most widely used binders for coil coatings. Major types of polymers used for coil coatings paints are polyester, fluoropolymers, siliconized polyester and Plastisol. Being the most widely used binders for the coil coatings, polyesters allow for several modifications in the chemistry to be made which can affect the final end application. Coil coatings are applied on aluminium and steel. When using steel, most pre-painted metal also uses a metallic coating on the steel to improve corrosion resistance. Coil coating has become one of the primary processes for applying protective and decorative finishes on aluminium sheets. Steel applications had a major market with 79% share in the total coil coatings market.
The main factor owing to the growth of this industry is the increased demand form automotive industry and the functional benefits of the coil coatings, which act as some of the driving factors for this market.
Coil coating plays a vital role in durability of the components used in any appliances such as refrigerators, washing machine, air-conditioners and others. In construction, coil coatings are done to both interior and exterior construction applications. Some of the applications, coil coating being employed in are storage units, interiors, entry and exit door and many others. Construction application is the major end user industry followed by the transportation industry.
