Fluoropolymer Films Market Analysis
Fluoropolymer film is a state-of-the-art material, which exhibit features such as chemical resistance, low friction coefficient, transparency, weather resistance, heat resistance, and water absorption. Fluoropolymer films are made from fluoropolymer compounds/resins, which are composed of monomers such as propene hexafluoro, propene, vinyl fluoride, chlorotrifluoroethylene, tetrafluoroethylene, and ethylene. The ethylene production and sale price depend on the price of petroleum and on changing economic conditions. In addition, due to the extreme longevity of fluoropolymer films, they are fully recyclable and have no adverse ecological influence. Fluoropolymer films are applicable in various end-user industries such as industrial processing, construction, electrical & electronics, and transportation.
Key drivers of global fluoropolymer films market
Increase in demand for fluoropolymer films from the commercial construction sector is a key factor fueling the growth of the global fluoropolymer films market. Developing next-generation drug containers to enhance the barrier strength in plunger composites, drug delivery system, and cap liners is anticipated to considerably increase demand for fluoropolymer films in pharmaceutical packaging. In addition, fluoropolymer films are also applicable in solar PV modules as front sheets. The record deployment and rapid expansion of solar photovoltaic modules around the world is projected to fuel the demand for fluoropolymer films in the coming years.
Market scenario: opportunities and challenges
The development of the commercial construction industry boosts the demand for fluoropolymer films, which is anticipated to augment the market growth during the projected timeframe. Owing to the properties of fluoropolymer films such as resistance to moisture and oxidation, they are suitable in a wide range of application such as semiconductors and solar PV cells, which is likely to serve as an opportunity for market expansion. Factors such as increase in trend of automation and rapid development of the consumer electronics sector are anticipated to augment the growth of the electronics industry. This fuels the sale of cables & wires, flexible printed circuits, and semiconductors, which, in turn, boosts the need for fluoropolymer films, thereby contributing toward the growth of the overall market. However, factors such as high price and relatively more complex manufacturing process are anticipated to impede the market growth.
COVID-19 scenario analysis
Owing to the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, the global fluoropolymer films market is expected to witness a slowdown during the next couple of years. Governments of various countries have implemented lockdown, which has led to shutdown of factories in scores of cities and provinces across the world, thus leading to predictions of a sharp slowdown in the output from construction to packaging industry. In addition, recent decline in construction activities is one of the key factors that is likely to negatively impact the growth of fluoropolymer films market. Moreover, companies are dealing with missing sales and disrupted supply chains as production activities are shutdown.
