The molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) coating type was the largest segment of the low
friction coatings market
Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) was the largest segment of the market in 2015 and is
projected to witness the highest growth during the forecast period. Molybdenum disulfide
is used as a dry lubricant coating and is applied in the form of a thin film on substrates. This
thin film gives strong wear-resistant and low friction properties to the surface to which it is
applied. MoS2 can withstand a temperature of more than 400oC and a high load. Therefore,
MoS2 is preferred over PTFE in many end-use industries.
The automobile & transportation was the largest end-use industry of the low friction
coatings market
Automobile & transportation was the largest segment of the low friction coatings market in
2015, followed by aerospace, general engineering, and food & healthcare. The increasing
use of low friction coatings to reduce noise, vibrations, and emissions in automobiles has
fueled the demand for these coatings across the globe. The low friction coatings market for
