Driver: High growth in end-use industries
The high-performance fluoropolymer market is expected to grow significantly due to increasing demand from several end-use industries. High performance fluoropolymers are widely used in industrial processing equipment, machinery, coatings, films & membranes, tubing, liners, seals, and other industrial applications. Demand for high performance fluoropolymers is rising in the automotive and electronics sectors due to their superior thermal stability, chemical resistance, and electrical insulation properties. Fluoropolymer-based composite materials are enabling new applications in harsh environments in these industries. High performance fluoropolymers are increasingly used in renewable energy applications like solar panels and wind turbines due to their resilience to weather and extreme temperatures. Fluoropolymers are in high demand in the healthcare industry for medical devices, implants, catheters, and surgical tools due to their biocompatibility, sterility, and chemical inertness.
Fine powder & dispersion is anticipated to be the second largest segment, by application, during the forecast period.
HPF are polymerized in water with a wetting agent. This may be used directly to impregnate fabrics or coagulated to make emulsion grade/fine powder/coagulated dispersion/paste grade of HPF. Emulsion grade HPF are used in the paste extrusion process. The powder is first blended with an extrusion aid (lubricant) to make a paste and then is extruded to produce tape, tube, or wire cover. Various grades are available for specific applications. Chemours is one of the leading producers of fluoropolymers that include PTFE fine powder resin.
Electrical & electronics is anticipated to be the largest segment, by end-use industry, during the forecast period.
HPF have significant applications in the electrical & electronics industry as they offer excellent electrical insulation properties under harsh conditions, such as high temperatures and aggressive chemicals. The industry exhibits developments in designing and manufacturing electronic components. High performance fluoropolymers further fuel these innovations as they enable the innovations of faster, smaller, and more durable microprocessors, semiconductors, and transistors. They also provide outstanding chemical and temperature resistance and design flexibility for component manufacturers and equipment designers. These properties make them better alternatives to traditional materials used in the electrical & electronics industry.
