The applications of printed circuit boards (PCBs.) in consumer electronics are extensive. Major applications include mobile devices (smartphones and tablets), computers (desktops and laptops), recording devices (camcorders, digital cameras, microphones), entertainment systems (DVD players and video games), and home appliances (alarm clocks, microwaves, refrigerators, coffee makers, etc.).

Consumer electronics is a rapidly changing, highly competitive industry that covers a wide array of products such as smartphones, computers, televisions, videogame consoles, etc. For every consumer electronic appliance, the printed circuit board is a core part, and it needs to be protected from exposure to harsh environments. Thus, advancements in the consumer electronic industry boosts demand for conformal coatings that can be used over printed circuit boards.

Potential Applications in Aerospace Industry 

Aerospace applications of PCBs require a great deal of precision and durability as they operate in extreme conditions. Aircrafts often go through significant amounts of turbulence in the atmosphere. Normal PCBs might get damaged during such harsh conditions. In order to avoid this, flexible PCBs are used in the aerospace industry.

PCBs find applications in the aerospace industry especially in the monitoring and testing equipment. In the monitoring equipment application, PCBs and hence conformal coatings are used in instrumentation including accelerometers, pressure sensors, microphones, and torque and force sensors. These products are used within the engines and cockpits of airplanes and rockets in order to monitor functioning of the vehicle.

Testing equipment that collects data during structural, vibration, and flight testing procedures use PCBs at its core. This data can then be used to develop more effective, efficient, and safer aircraft.

Delamination and Cracking in Conformal Coatings can hamper the Growth of the Overall Market 

Delamination in conformal coatings is the removal of the conformal coating from the surface of printed circuit boards. This process leaves the circuit board area exposed. Delamination is related to factors such as cleanliness, compatibility, permeability to moisture, degree of coating cure, etc. If the surface of the printed circuit board is contaminated, delamination of conformal coatings may occur due to poor adhesion of the coating to the laminate. Difference in surface energies of the coating and the substrate of PCB often leads to poor compatibility.

Cracking is another major restraint observed in conformal coatings in the printed circuit board market. Factors that influence cracking include high curing temperature and extreme environments. Delayering and cracking are related to the type of coating technology adopted. For example, brush coatings usually do not provide uniform thickness and the chances of delamination and cracking are high in this case.

Dynamics of the Conformal Coatings Market for PCBs 

Conformal coatings on printed circuit board market is capital intensive and requires technical know-how such as formulation complexities, etc. Moderate number of producers operate in the market. They offer high quality products and have the benefit of enjoying economies of scale i.e. they have the capacity of mass production. Threat of new entrants is low due to the presence of already established brands (such as LOCTITE 3900, Dow Corning's RTV conformal coatings) in the market. Thus, the threat of new entrants in the conformal coatings market for PCBs is anticipated to be low during the forecast period.

Key manufacturers such as Dow Corning, Henkel AG & KGaA, and Shin-Etsu Chemical Company Limited with significant production capacities dominate the global conformal coatings market. These prominent companies have an advantage due to their extensive presence across the value chain, as compared to other manufacturers of conformal coatings.

Large players are highly integrated, which helps them reduce production costs and gain a competitive edge in the market. Key players focus on new innovation and technologies in order to enhance their market share and serve diverse industries. Hence, the degree of competition in the market is likely to be high during the forecast period.
