From the paper:

Aerospace coatings represent a well-defined segment of the coatings industry as a whole and one that is open to new types of coatings and coating processes and has embraced nanocoatings throughout the aerospace industry. Plasma spray and 3D printing are also in use on critical parts in aircraft engines and other components. As n-tech sees it, there are no barriers to entry for smart coatings suppliers in aerospace markets based on a perceived need in the industry to adhere to traditional materials.

But the real question for firms making smart coatings is, can these coatings be sold as enabling important advantages along the dimensions of (1) safety (2) comfort (3) fuel economy (4) other operational efficiencies. As n-tech sees it, these are four established areas where aircraft manufacturers—if convinced that their use of specialist coatings can lead to demonstrable cost or performance improvements—will quickly make commitments to new coatings.
