The conformal coating market is impacted by the COVID 19, due to the disruption caused by it in the end-use industries globally:

• The automobile industry is heading toward a year of significant decline as a result of extended lockdowns, impact in production, and fall in consumer demand. Sales volumes of passenger and commercial vehicles are projected to drop to levels not seen in over a decade. The automotive industry is struggling with an abrupt and widespread stoppage of economic activity, as workers are advised to stay home, supply chains grind to a halt, and factories are closed. Lockdowns prohibiting the movement of people and the sudden stoppage of economic activity has caused a severe contraction in sectoral output and gross domestic product (GDP). It is estimated that factory closures in Europe and North America have caused some millions of passenger vehicles to be removed from production schedules. These production declines have a cascading effect on OEMs and material suppliers, which will also affect the demand for conformal coatings.
• Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, more than 70% of the global aviation fleet is grounded. About 27,000 aircraft were in service at the beginning of 2020. Currently, less than 7,500 are still flying. The number of fleets is unlikely to recover to the previous levels until the end of 2022 at the earliest. Lockdowns have resulted in reduced passenger traffic and a significant decline in the revenue of airlines. According to the International Air Transport Association (IATA), global airline passenger revenues will drop by USD 314 billion in 2020, a 55% decline compared to 2019. The pandemic has had a significant impact on aircraft manufacturing as well. For instance, Airbus – one of the largest commercial aircraft manufacturing companies globally, has reduced its aircraft production rates by roughly one-third due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Boeing has also reported a first-quarter loss of USD 641 million. This has significantly affected the use of conformal coatings used in new aircraft production, as well as MRO operations

APAC is the largest market of conformal coatings, and this dominance is expected to continue till 2025. China is the key market in the region, consuming more than half of the demand for conformal coatings, followed by Taiwan, South Korea, and Japan.

Increasing demand from high-end applications requiring conformal coating

Conformal coating is highly preferred in PCBs, which are used in high-end applications in aerospace & defense and automotive industries. The aerospace & defense industry uses conformal coatings in space shuttle controls & systems, aircraft communications & controls, satellite systems, robotic cable assemblies, lightening protection chassis, and other similar technologies.

For the aerospace & defense industry, reliability on conformal coatings performance is the overriding issue. Conformal coatings in aerospace electronics must perform in extreme environments and hazardous situations. There is a difference in the electronics used in the aerospace & defense industry and the ones used in other industries. Electronics used in this industry are smaller in size that reduces the weight of the components and increases their functionality as well as performance. New technologies need to be thoroughly tested to check their reliability before they can be used in critical applications.

PCBs used in the aerospace & defense sector have the tolerance levels of ±0.0005 on etched features. Conformal coatings should also meet specific aerospace standards such as RTCA-DO-160 and MIL-STD-810 in order to get reliability tag from end users. These factors prove the increased operational parameters for electronic components in the aerospace & defense industry. The growth in this industry is likely to slow down due to the COVID-19 pandemic since air travel has been restricted around the world. Almost every airline has grounded a majority of its aircraft and is deferring orders for new ones as well. Aircraft manufacturing, too was halted due to complete lockdowns in countries of North America and Europe, which are the hubs of aircraft manufacturing.
