Surface modification using ceramic coatings has achieved an important place in the industrial environment over the past several decades.
High-performance ceramic coatings are a mature market but one in which new high-performance ceramic coating technologies, including both materials and processes, are continuously being developed.
The availability of these new coating technologies is broadening the range of potential ceramic coating applications and substrate materials, including fiber-reinforced polymeric (FRP) composite components, such as aircraft parts, rolls for the printing and textile industries, high-pressure hydraulic cylinders and camshafts.
Meanwhile, the availability and commercialization of new high-performance coatings technologies are changing the internal specification patterns of industries where they are already used, such as cutting tool inserts.
