Data Bridge Market Research analyses that the chemical surface treatment market was valued at USD 316.9 million in 2021 and is expected to reach the value of USD 560.99 million by 2029, at a CAGR of 7.40% during the forecast period of 2022 to 2029.

Market Definition

Chemical surface treatment is the process of altering the surface of metal with chemicals. This type of surface treatment is commonly used as a pre-treatment for subsequent finishing procedures such as powder coating or anodizing. Chemical surface treatments such as chemical polishing, chromatin/phosphating, and pickling are examples of chemical surface treatments. Aluminium corrosion is improved by chemical treatment. Chemical treatments are distinguished by extremely thin chemical conversion layers. Layer thicknesses typically range from 0.01 to 1.25 m. As a result, unless post-treatments are performed, these layers are not suitable for outdoor corrosion protection.
