n-tech Research Report Claims Market for Multifunctional Smart Materials will exceed US $1.4 Billion by 2021GLEN ALLEN, Va., Jan. 21, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Industry analyst firm n-tech Research today announced the release of a new report titled "Multifunctional Smart Coatings and Surfaces: 2016-2025" - According to the report this market will exceed $1.4 Billion by 2021, with multifunctional smart coatings gradually taking over from more mature multipurpose materials during that period of time. Details about the report, including a downloadable excerpt are available at: http://ntechresearch.com/market_reports/multifunctional-smart-coatings-and-surfaces-2016-2023 This report is the latest deliverable from n-tech's research program on smart materials. Other n-tech reports from 2015 have covered smart windows, smart coatings, smart surfaces, self-healing materials, smart antimicrobials and color-shifting coatings. n-tech has provided of the smart materials business for more than six years. About the report: n-tech believes that the coming decade will see substantial new business revenues generated by smart surfaces that exhibit multiple functionalities -- notably various combinations of color shifting, antimicrobial, self-cleaning, self-healing, self-dimming glass and photovoltaics. In most cases, these surfaces will be created through multilayer coating approaches, but in some instances, embedded sensors or special surface patterning will be used to achieve the required functionality. There will also a growing number of smart coatings capable of delivering multifunctionality in a single layer. This report identifies the opportunities that these trends create in the constructon, automotive, aerospace, health care, textiles and consumer products sectors. It also assesses which combinations of functionalities will be the most successful and quantify the revenues and volume shipments of smart multifunctionals to each of the end users segments in a ten-year forecast period, with further breakouts by material type and functionality. Companies discussed in this report include: 3M, Aerospace Technologies, AGC Automotive, AkzoNobel, Alcoa, Alenia Aermacchi, Audi, Axalta, BASF, Big Sky Technologies, BMW, Boeing, Casalgrande, Cima Nanotech, Clariant, Corning, Covestro, Crossville, Dassault, Diamon-Fusion, Dongfeng, DSM, DuPont, Essroc/Italcementi, Evonik, Faurecia, Ford, Gelest, Gentex, Green Earth Nano Science, GreenShield, Grupo Antolin, Guard, Haruna, Hawker Beechcraft, Heliatek, HzO, InspecTech, Jotun, Kansai Paint, Klingshield, Life Material, Lufthansa Technik, Luna Innovations, Mercedes, Microban, MMT Textiles, Nano Lab, NanoFlex, nanoShell, Nanosonic, Nippon Paint, Nissan, P2i, Photon et Polymers, Pilkington, PPG, PureTi, Reckli, Research Frontiers, Saab, Schoeller, Sciessent, SLIPS Technologies, Sto, Structural Monitoring Systems, Sunpartner, Toto, Toyota, Ultratech, Valspar, Vestagen and Yengfeng Highlights:
