Global Scratch-Resistant Glass Market 2019-2029
Global Scratch-Resistant Glass Market by Product (Chemically Strengthened Glass, Sapphire Glass), by Function (Anti-Microbial, Anti-Corrosion, Anti-Fouling, Anti-Icing, Self-Cleaning, Self-Healing), by Application (Automotive & Transportation, Marine, Building & Construction, Aerospace & Defense), Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast
Market Definition:
• Scratch-resistant glasses are coated with anti-scratch film coating which makes the glass less prone to scratches than conventional glass. This coating helps the glass maintain its original elegance much longer.
• There are two types of scratch-resistant glasses namely; chemically strengthened glass also called as gorilla glass, and sapphire glass.
• The chemically strengthened glass is largely adopted across various industrial verticals.
Market Overview and Trends
• Scratch-resistant glass provides various benefits such as, better optical clarity, high scratch resistance, and improved impact absorbance. This glass is largely used to prepare watch lenses, smartphone displays, eyeglasses, and smart gadget displays.
• By the means of advanced technology, the glass is improved with a diamond-like surface coating on one side that provides permanent protection and cannot be removed.
• Mass production of such glasses requires simple and cost-effective fabrication method and currently large number of studies are being conducted to develop new and innovative ways to develop scratch resistant glasses.
• High hardness and transparency are critically important characteristics for anti-scratch coatings glasses.
• Recently, a new method was developed to produce transparent scratch resistant glass with the help of the deposition of metallic, opaque aluminium and its subsequent transformation into a transparent oxide.
• Such new methods have a high potential of streamlining the process and making it more cost-effective, while supporting the fabrication of highly scratch resistant thin films with good transparency.
• Layers of scratch-resistant coatings can be applied to all types of glasses, demonstrating the versatility and future potential for applications in glass and display industry.
