Tech Innovation to Boost Growth in the Global Pipe Coating Market Through 2024
Pipe coating is a protective coating on metal surfaces primarily required to prevent corrosion of pipes. Coatings can be done for pipes below as well as above the ground level internal coat and external coat. The coating is applied from a single layer to a triple layer array to endure harsh environments such as UV, solvents, moisture, etc. Besides, protection from the corrosion pipe coatings is also developed for abrasion resistance. The selection of proper coating depends on various factors, some of which are performance level, economics consideration, regulatory concerns, technical properties requirement, etc. Polymeric pipe coating such as fusion bonded epoxy coating also known as FBE coating and olefin-based are popular due to coating with lower residual stress and uniform coating without weld tenting. Oil and gas industry is the main end user for pipe coating market , since the transportation of heavy oil, liquids is very frequent and shelf life of the pipe is an impo...
