Water-borne coatings are based on emulsifying the binders, pigments, and additives with water. Water-borne coatings used water as a solvent to disperse the resins, which are added to create the coatings. They contain up to 80% of water as the solvent and offer a variety of applications, including automobiles, furniture, plastic, wood, and concrete, among others. There are a large number of players in the market, and approximately 10-12 vendors have expanded their business activities in APAC by acquiring or merging with other small vendors in the region. Water-borne coatings provide decorative as well as protective features. The major driving force for water-borne coatings is that they are environmentfriendly and contain less volatile organic compound (VOC) content. Hence, they are widely adopted in various end-user industries. There are various types of waterborne coatings available in the market.

The Hydrogen Free Diamond Like Carbon Coatings DLC market is expected to grow strongly with the growth in the automotive industry, also increasing demand for high temperature coatings is providing huge opportunities for the DLC manufactures. The demand for hydrogen-free DLC is largely used by number of end-use industries due to its rigidity and wear resistance when compared to DLC that is combined with hydrogen. In the automotive sector hydrogen-free, DLC coating combines appropriately with the engine oil, which results in forming strong ultra-thin film when special oil additives are applied. Low friction factor and advanced abrasion resistance are increasing the demand for the DLC market. Manufactures in biomedical and automotive industry are aiming to use hydrogen-free DLC for effective working. Additionally, innovative technologies such as pulsed laser deposition and plasma enhanced CVD are expected to trigger the market for DLC

Talc is a naturally occurring mineral mined from the earth, composed of magnesium, silicon, oxygen, and hydrogen. It is a soft mineral and a basic silicate of magnesium. Talc is considered a raw material due to properties such as lamellarity, softness, whiteness, fragrance retention, luster, and chemical purity. The other commercial properties of talc are chemical inertness, low abrasion, high thermal conductivity, low electrical conductivity stability, and high oil and grease adsorption. Talc is a versatile mineral used in many industrial applications owing to its unique surface chemistry and lamellar properties. Cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, paints & coatings, ceramics, construction, and pulp & paper are the key industries where talc is used.

Green hydrogen is made from regenerative energy sources through water electrolysis. With the help of electric current, water is divided into oxygen and hydrogen in an electrolyzer and grey hydrogen derived from fossil fuels is differentiated (such as natural gas). Hydrogen is safe for atmosphere and can be stored and converted into electricity or heat as required. Green hydrogen is a major component of energy equation and hydrogen is regarded as a primary potential renewable energy resource. It is one of the most important circular carbon economy (CCE) approaches as it is generated using solar energy. It is generated using renewable energy sources as compared to carbon-based energy found in natural gas and other fossil fuels.
