The fluoropolymer film market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 4.9% during the forecast period. The growth of the market is attributed to rising demand from various industries.

Fluoropolymer is a fluorocarbon - based polymer with multiple carbon fluorine bonds. It is characterized by a high resistance to solvents, acids, and bases. The most know quality fluoropolymer is polytetrafluorethylene. Teflon was coined by the DuPont Company in 1946. It’s generally used for the protection of wires to prevent overheating. Due to unmatched chemical and temperature resistance they are used in products like cars and planes. It can be heat-sealed, metalized, laminated, thermoformed, and welded to a wide range of materials.. Technological advancements in electrical and electronic industry is estimated to drive the market. Crude oil which is the key raw materials in the manufacture of fluoropolymers also experienced oscillating price dynamics. Fluoropolymer’s manufacturing is a complex process and thus its production is costly in nature. The demand for fluoropolymer film is growing due to rapid expansion of solar energy, growing demand for electrical appliances, and growth of the semiconductor industry. Trade name for fluoropolymer is Chemours Teflon.

Market Segment Insights:
The PTFE segment is projected to hold major market share
Based on types, the global fluoropolymer film market is segmented as PTFE, PVDF, FEP, PFA, and ETFE. The PTFE segment is expected to expand at a rapid pace during the forecast period. Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) is used as a non-stick coating for pans and other cookware. Rising demand for non-stick cookware is estimated to boost the market. PTFE is non-reactive because of the strength of carbon–fluorine bonds, and so it is often used in containers and pipework for reactive and corrosive chemicals.
Fluorinated ethylene propylene (FEP) is a copolymer of hexafluoropropylene and tetrafluoroethylene. It is often used for flexible tubing and fluid processing equipment where chemical resistance, high purity, and low stiffness are required. FEP has outstanding electrical properties and UV resistance.
The electrical & electronics segment is estimated to expand at a rapid pace during the forecast period.
On the basis of applications, the global fluoropolymer film market is segregated into electrical & electronics, industrial, automotive & aerospace, medical & pharmaceutical, and consumer products. The electrical & electronics segment is projected to hold major market share. It is used as an insulation to prevent heat damage. Some products are highly expensive and help in restraining from damage. The insulation procedure may differ according to industry.
