Coatings display diverse applications, including protective and functional uses, indicating their significance.
Coatings play vital role in our daily lives and their importance cannot be overstated. Coatings are available for functioning as protective coatings (corrosion protection and weather protection), decorative coatings, functional coatings (friction reducing coatings), specialized coatings (antimicrobial and antireflective coatings) and energy related coatings. Coatings are of different forms: liquid or paste and can be applied on the substrate either in dip form / brush or spray form. Coatings once adhered to the substrate form a thin layer of few microns thickness.
