Metal modifiers are the type of surface modifiers added in other ingredients to modify surface properties of metals. Metal surface modifiers are generally used in manufacturing metal protective coatings. Metal modifiers enhances the metal surface properties such as corrosion resistance, abrasion resistance, lubrication and antifriction amongst others.
Metal modifier also enhance adhesion between two surfaces. These are types of silanes having two functional groups, which helps in binding the two surfaces. Metal modifiers also improve lubricating properties of various metal parts in machines and automotive engines. Metal modifiers are used in various end use industries including automotive, aerospace, manufacturing and other industries.
Increasing investment on the metal protection is pushing the use of metal modifiers in various industrial applications. Metal modifiers modifies the surface properties of the metals and indirectly increases shelf life of the metal part which saves the maintenance cost and time.
Wide range of materials are being used as metal modifiers which has different functions including corrosion resistance, abrasion resistance, slip resistance, friction resistance, and others.
High growth in end use industry of the metal modifiers is expected to drive the market growth in an upward trend. Increasing focus on cost saving and quality improvement is also pushing the demand for metal modifiers from various applications.
Corrosion costs a significant amount for the companies, not only in terms of money but also in terms of time. To save maintenance cost and downtime in the plants manufacturers various equipment users and machine manufacturers are preferring the use of metal modifiers for improving the properties of metals and protect them from the early break down or underperformance.
Increasing standards by the environmental agencies and industrial associations for quality maintenance, is also driving the use of metal modifiers.
Metal modifiers market is considered to be a fragmented type of market with few large scale/ tier-1 players and large concentration of small and medium players.
