Global Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) Market Analysis,Growth and Share 2023
Polytetrafluoroethylene Market Overview
Polytetrafluoroethylene, aka PTFE, is a fluorocarbon solid that is formed through the process of polymerization of the monomer tetrafluoroethylene (TFE). As PTFE is non-reactive in nature, it is extensively used in pipeworks and containers for reactive and corrosive chemicals. It is even used as a lubricant due to its striking ability of reducing the consumption of wear and fuel in machinery and as graft material in the healthcare sector.
The global polytetrafluoroethylene market is extremely lucrative in nature and is primarily driven by the demand from automotive and industrial and chemical processing industries. As per the report released by the team of Market Research Future (MRFR), the globular market is anticipated to exhibit a CAGR of 6% during the forecast period.
Polytetrafluoroethylene Market Segmentation
The global polytetrafluoroethylene market segmentation is done in terms of application, form, and region.
By form, the market includes fine powder, granular/molded powder, micronized powder, and dispersion. The granular/molded powder segment held the largest share of the market in 2017 and is expected to hold onto the same in the near future. The growth of the segment can be attributed to the cost-competitive nature of granular PTFR and ease of production. Additionally, granular PTFE provides various key and excellent properties like water repellency, high thermal resistance, and enhanced chemical resistance.
