DUBLIN, Dec. 19, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- The "Fluoropolymer Materials: Technologies and Global Markets" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
Although traditional applications are reaching their saturation point, fluoropolymers continue to find new applications. For example, in automotive and aviation markets, fluoropolymers are gaining use because of their ability to provide heat and chemical resistance, strength, durability, and weight reduction. In the electronics sector, more stringent technical and environmental specifications will promote the use of high-performance materials that are inherently flame-retardant. Other examples of developmental applications for fluoropolymers include lithium-ion batteries, fuel-cell membranes, aircraft interior components, and backsheets for photovoltaic modules.
At present, the key end-user industries, mainly transportation and electrical and electronics, are undergoing significant transitions. These megatrends are playing a vital role in shaping the overall fluoropolymers market. Energy transition from conventional to renewable energy sources is, in turn, driving demand for fluoropolymers in solar, wind and lithium-ion batteries. The surge in semiconductor demand is also acting as a key driver for fluoropolymers. These materials offer outstanding insulation properties as well as electrical conductivity, thus making them suitable for usage in EVs. In addition, strict government regulations pertaining to emissions and safety standards are also pushing the fluoropolymers demand in automotive.
PVDF is the fastest-growing fluoropolymer product, especially in solar and lithium-ion battery applications. Demand for PVDF is expected to grow exponentially due to its rising application in lithiumion batteries and architectural coatings. The growth in the chemical processing, cookware, bakeware, and medical markets are also important driving forces for the fluoropolymer industry.
Fluoroelastomer demand is growing at a steady pace with lucrative growth avenues from the transportation sector. Demand is being driven by new product developments in sealing applications (which result in better performance), further tightening of emissions standards in many industrialized countries and strong expansion of automobile production. Fluoroelastomers are also gaining ground in the medical and food processing industries as they provide long-term protection against high temperatures and also fight corrosion. Demand for fluoropolymers is also likely to expand in the medical sector, led by rising applications in catheters, filters and implantable medical devices.
