In the medical field, an aging population contributes to the demand for medical devices with improved functionality. According to the United Nations' World Population Prospects report, the number of people aged 60 years or above is projected to more than double by 2050, reaching 2.1 billion.

In addition to medical devices, hydrophilic coatings are used in other sectors as well. They are applied to optical lenses, glass surfaces, and mirrors to prevent fogging and improve visibility. Hydrophilic coatings can also be found in the automotive industry, where they are used on windshields, side mirrors, and headlights to repel water, enhance visibility during rain, and prevent water spots.
