Sonochemistry is frequently utilized in the process of preparing nanomaterials as well as surface functionalization, which refers to the creation of more surface area that can be processed. Sonochemical coating is a one-of-a-kind, environmentally benign, low-velocity spray coating that, when applied, forms micron-thin layers that are uniform, protective, and functional without clogging. Sonochemical coatings can be produced by the use of ultrasonic processing. Chemiluminescence has seen widespread application in the field of acoustic cavitation, specifically for the purpose of bubble monitoring via ultrasonic processing. During the manufacturing of paints and high-performance coatings, ultrasonic processing is utilized to accomplish the tasks of dispersing, de-agglomerating, and grinding pigment particles into nanoparticles. After being dispersed in the appropriate media, these pigments, which are typically made up of particles of metal oxide, give off colour. The size of these pigments is an important component that plays a role in determining the qualities possessed by the completed finish. Sonochemical coatings bring to a reduction in the particle size, which contributes to the overall uniformity.

Increasing Demand for Environment Friendly Solution

The majority of sonochemical coatings use solvents as their foundation. On the other hand, as a result of the implementation of rigorous laws against volatile organic compounds, the price of solvents is dramatically going up. In addition, a great number of nations are in the midst of a "green industrial revolution" to combat the effects of global warming and get to net zero by the year 2050. As a direct consequence of this, catalytic sonochemistry for the production of clean hydrogen from sustainable ammonia and coatings based on water is gaining popularity. The polymers in these coatings are easier to emulsify thanks to the use of ultrasonic processing. During the mixing process, nanoparticles that are utilized in sonochemical coatings generally agglomerate. These particles can be more effectively dispersed and deagglomerated with the use of ultrasonic processing. It is suitable for use in liquids that have a high viscosity as well as liquids that have a high concentration of solids.

Increasing Application in Healthcare Industry Fueling the Market Growth

Infections that people pick up while being treated in a hospital are referred to as "hospital-acquired infections," or "HAIs." They are spread through direct physical contact with a contaminated surface or element, such as the skin, aerosols, shared tools, hospital furniture, or hospital fabrics. They can also be transmitted through indirect contact with a contaminated surface or element. An increase in the application of sonochemical coatings in medical equipment has been attributed to an increase in knowledge about healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) as well as initiatives by the government to stop the spread of these infections. Infectious diseases caused by HAIs are the primary cause of death and disease on a global scale. Around 1.7 million patients in the U.S. become infected with HAIs each year, as reported by the Office of Disease Prevention and Health Promotion. Of these 1.7 million patients, nearly 100,000 patients pass away as a result of their infections, while many more patients seek medical treatment.
There are a number of medical gadgets that provide a breeding ground for germs, and it is extremely difficult to eradicate these bacteria with traditional disinfectants. Numerous producers of medical equipment and healthcare facilities have begun putting antimicrobial coatings to various products as a preventative strategy. In addition, the governments of a number of nations in Europe and North America have coordinated their respective countries' efforts to reduce the transmission of HAIs. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) presented the National Action Plan to reduce healthcare-associated infections in acute care hospitals across the country in October of 2016.

Application in Construction and Automotive Industries to Add on to the Demand

An increase in consumer awareness regarding environmentally friendly products has encouraged manufacturers across a variety of industries to design coatings that are more efficient. The sonochemical coatings market share is expected to be fueled by the widespread adoption of sonochemical coatings in a variety of industries, including electronics, building and construction, and automotive. Displays, glass, and fuel cells are all manufactured using sonochemical coatings because of their resistance to corrosion and minimal maintenance requirements respectively. Sonochemical coatings are an excellent choice for use in applications related to architecture and construction because of their resistance to microbes, extended life expectancy, and protection against stains, unpleasant odors, and the formation of biofilm.

Increasing Demand for Electric Devices

During the time period covered by this projection, an increase in the demand for electronic devices is also anticipated to play a role in the expansion of the sonochemical coatings market. Sonochemical coatings provide great moisture resistance and help prevent the formation of harmful microorganisms such algae, bacteria, and fungi; in addition, they inhibit the growth of pathogenic microorganisms. Plastics that have been treated with antimicrobial compounds have a longer functional lifetime because the chemicals limit the growth of bacteria that can cause the plastics to deteriorate more quickly. The use of these chemicals renders polymers more long-lasting, stainless, odorless, and highly suited for a variety of medical, electronic, and automotive applications.
