Increasing use in PV installations are major driving factors for the high performance fluoropolymers


The global high performance fluoropolymers (HPF) market size is estimated to be USD 3.3 billion in 2019 and is projected to reach USD 4.6 billion by 2024, at a CAGR of 6.9%, between 2019 and 2024. HPF is used mainly in industrial processing, transportation, electrical & electronics, and medical, among others. It is used for manufacturing various products such as coatings, films, membranes, tubes, wire & cable, seals, gaskets, liner, mechanical parts, and many others in these industries. High chemical & temperature resistance, excellent dielectric properties, and lightweight are some of the characteristics owing to which the demand for high performance fluoropolymers is high in industrial processing segment.


PTFE accounted for the largest share in total HPF market PTFE is the most widely used type of HPF and accounted for the largest market share. There is an increase in the use of dispersion and fine powder PTFE, for various applications, especially in North America and APAC. It is used in a wide range of applications such as semiconductor, automotive components, electrical appliances, and non-stick cookware. The growing applications in the electrical & electronics industry are expected to trigger the demand for PTFE, especially in advanced batteries and fuel cells.

Coatings segment accounted for the largest market share and the fastest-growing segment in the HPF market HPF possesses high energy & stronger C-F bond, excellent oxidative stability, boiling point, and electrochemical properties, which make them highly suitable for coating application in various industries. Owing to these unique benefits, HPFs are in high demand in the form of coating for various substrates such as metal, glass, fibre, plastics, and wire & cables. APAC is expected to be the fastest-growing market for HPF, owing to the presence of large manufacturing and highly populated countries, such as China and India. China, India, Japan, Indonesia, and South Korea are some of the key countries in the HPF market in this region. In 2018, China accounted for the largest share of the APAC market, owing to the presence of huge chemical, automotive, medical, and electronics industries. The growing production of automobiles, consumer household, medical disposables, and their increasing demand across the region boosts the demand for HPF. Growth in the manufacturing of automobiles and electronics hardware across the region is expected to grow further with changing demographics. Owing to which APAC is projected to be the fastest-growing HPF market. The Chemours Company (US), Daikin Industries, Ltd. (Japan), 3M (US), Solvay SA (Belgium), AGC (Japan), The Dongyue Group (China), Gujrat Fluorochemicals Ltd. (India), Halopolymer OJSC (Russia), Hubei Everflon polymer (China), and China Reform Culture Holdings Co. Ltd. (China) are a few active players in the HPF market.
