The Global Optical Coatings Market is expected to reach $23.36 billion by 2027 growing at a CAGR of 10.5% from 2020 to 2027. Optical Coating is the process of blending a thin layer of films on optical components such as mirrors, the lens to strengthen the transmission characteristics and reflection of the optical system. Optical coatings typically contain several layers of various metallic and dielectric materials such as silicon dioxide, titanium dioxide, aluminum, and others piled together according to the particular end-use application.
Factors such as rise in the solar power industry, technological progressions in optical equipment and fabrication process and increasing demand for optical coatings from the electronics & semiconductor industry are driving the growth of the market. However, high research & development (R&D) and equipment costs are restraining the growth of the market.
Based on the type, the anti-reflection (AR) coatings segment is going to have a lucrative growth during the forecast owing to its ability to provide high-quality coatings with low reflection power and high transmission power on components such as display screens, lenses, mirrors used in various consumer and industrial applications.
