Perfluoroalkoxy (PFA) Market 2022 Discover New Opportunities, Key Trends and Growth Factors

Perfluroalkoxy (PFA) is a fully fluorinated translucent and a slightly flexible polymer with a low chance of friction and excellent outstanding anti-stick properties. PFA is a tough material that resists stress and sustains against all chemicals and solvents. PFA is also temperature resistant that makes it ideal for use in high & low temperature surroundings. PFA is chemically stable and possesses relatively good dielectric strength. It encompasses high melting and processing temperatures and also it is difficult to mold. Such properties make PFA vulnerable to splay delamination, degradation and melt fracture. PFA is also corrosive to almost all metals with higher probability of contamination.



Perfluroalkoxy (PFA) Market Key Manufacturers Segment:

•    Chemours (DuPont)
•    Solvay
•    Daikin
•    Other

Global Perfluroalkoxy (PFA) Market is segmented into chemical processing, electrical & electronics, mechanical/industrial and automotive & transportation. Perfluroalkoxy (PFA) market geographically spans North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Middle-East & Africa. North America dominates the market for the forecast period. APAC regions such as China and Japan are anticipated to grow at a higher CAGR during the forecast period. Middle-East and African markets witness a moderate growth CAGR during the forecast period.

Characteristically, PFA is inert to all solvents and chemicals for processing wafers. It has a steady cassette that can withstand constant temperatures. Perfluroalkoxy polymers are fully fluorinated and have chemical resistance and chemical stability in comparison with polytetrafluroethylene (PTFE). PFA resins are in general copolymers of tetrafluroethylene with one or more of pefluoroalkyl vinyl comonomers.  Commercially, PFA is used as a material for pipe fitting for hostile chemicals and also corrosion resistant lining of vessels in the chemical processing industry. Common applications include construction of gas scrubbers, piping, reactors& containment vessels.
