Fluoropolymers Market Report, By Type, Application and Geography - Global Market Share, Trend Analysis & Forecast , 2019 - 2028

Report Code : cm1787 | Publish Date : Upcoming | Industry : Chemicals_Materials | Geography : Global


Fluoropolymers are polymer materials that contain fluorine atom in the chemical structure. There are basically two types of fluoropolymers materials perfluoropolymers and partially fluorinated polymers. They are characterised by excellent properties like high chemical resistance, weather stability, low coefficient of friction, low surface energy and low dielectric constant. These properties are due to the special electronic structure of the fluorine atom, the stable carbon-fluorine covalent bonding, and the unique intramolecular and intermolecular interactions between the fluorinated polymer segments and the main chains. Owing to the special physical and chemical properties, it is widely used in the chemical, electrical/electronic, construction, architectural, and automotive industries. 

Fluoropolymers Market Outlook

The growth of the fluoropolymers market is primarily attributed to rising demand for electrical and electronic appliance all over the world and increasing demand for fluoropolymers in the construction additives. Moreover, the overall development and rising demand for fluoropolymers is directly proportionate to the growth of low volume fluoropolymers and continuous technological development done by key players in the market. However, the increasing raw material prices and excessive cost associated with the fluoropolymers are the factors hindering the market growth. Additionally, easy availability of cheap and degraded substitutes and harmful environmental impact are the major challenges faced by the key players in the fluoropolymers market.
