Fluoropolymers are lightweight and durable plastic resins with a strong carbon-fluoride bond. They are chemically inert and have broad temperature ranges, low friction, and excellent dielectric, wear, and thermal insulation properties. As a result, they are used in industries requiring thermal stability, cryogenic properties, chemical flame resistance, high volume and surface resistivity, and low coefficient friction, surface energy, and dielectric constant. Presently, they are available in several forms, including granulate, films, paste, dispersion, and melt-processable, which can resist heat, water, and salt and perform well in harsh environments.
Fluoropolymers Market Trends:
The market growth of fluoropolymers can be attributed to their wide applications in different industry verticals across the globe. For instance, they are used in the electronics industry as durable, low maintenance, and economical alternatives to exotic metals. Furthermore, they function as insulation materials in manufacturing flexible printed circuits and ultrapure components of semiconductors. They are also utilized for making fabrics, non-stick coatings for cookware, and fiberglass composites in construction work on account of their flame retardancy, thermal stability, weatherability, and friction properties. Apart from this, boosting sales of vehicles across the globe are increasing the application of fluoropolymers in the automotive industry for O-rings, gaskets, shaft seals, valve stem seals, fuel hoses linings, and power steering. Moreover, they are gaining traction in the chemical processing industry for coatings heat exchangers, pumps, diaphragms, impellers, tanks, reaction vessels, autoclaves, containers, flue duct expansion joints, and heavy-wall solid pipes. Furthermore, due to the rising prevalence of chronic medical conditions, fluoropolymers are employed in the healthcare industry for manufacturing cardiovascular grafts, ligament replacement, heart patches, and other medical devices around the world.
