Global Perfluoropolyether PFPE Market By Overview

Perfluoropolyether’s market accounted for US$ 684.23 billion in 2020 and is estimated to reach USD 1159.94 Billion by 2030 and is anticipated to register a CAGR of 5.5%.

Perfluoropolyether (PFPE) is a fluorinated synthetic fluid with low molecular weight. Perfluoropolyether is non-toxic with non-flammable properly. It is used in extreme temperatures varying from the temperature range of −80°C to 200°C. The molecular structure of PFPE varies from linear, branched, and a combination of both based on its applications. PFPE gives temperature resistivity, lubricity, and the ability to prevent wear and volatility to fluid. Perfluoropolyether is a liquid polymer with a wide range of applications in the automotive, aerospace, and electronics sectors owing to its versatility. Perfluoropolyether has high oxidative as well as thermal stability. Its excellent characteristics such as low volatility for extended life, chemical inertness, and low surface tension make it a fuel of choice.

Global Perfluoropolyether PFPE Market By Drivers & Restraints

Rising demand of non-toxic lubricants

Increasing demand for non-toxic, non-flammable, corrosion-resistant lubricants from the automotive as well as aerospace sector, particularly in developing countries, is primary factor expected to drive growth of the global perfluoropolyether market over the forecast period. In addition, growing automotive and aerospace sectors across the globe is another major factor expected to boost the growth of the target market over the forecast period. Furthermore, the rapidly growing demand for perfluoropolyether for coating the surfaces of tiles, stones, glass, and ceramics, coupled with its increasing use in the electronics industry as vacuum grease in the processing of semiconductors are some of the other factors expected to boost demand for perfluoropolyether, thereby propelling growth of the global market in next 10 years. Also, PFPE is used in CD drives as a top-coating lubricant which is a key factor supporting the growth of the target market. Increasing R&D investments by manufacturers operating in the target market, in order to gain a competitive edge is expected to support the growth of the global perfluoropolyether market in the near future.

However, the declining market for CD drives, coupled with the emission of fumes from the PFPE fluid upon contact with high temperatures are major factors expected to hinder the growth of the global perfluoropolyether market in the near future.
