Physical vapor deposition is a process in which the material goes from a condensed phase to a vapor phase and then back to a thin film as it condenses onto a substrate. This process is commonly used for applying thin films of corrosion-resistant and wear-protective coatings for applications across automotive, biomedical, electronics and decorative industries. Physical vapor deposition employs evaporation, condensation and chemical reactions of vaporized material to produce thin films and coatings. Some key advantages of PVD coatings are hardness, wear and corrosion resistance, low friction, high reflectivity and ability to coat complex geometries. With growing demand for hard coatings in industrial applications such as cutting tools, medical devices, architectural glass and decorative articles, the global PVD market is expected to grow significantly over the forecast period.
The Global Physical Vapor Deposition Market is estimated to be valued at US$ 24.04 Bn in 2024 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 6.2% over the forecast period 2024 To 2031.
