Global Fluoro Elastomers - Market Share Analysis, Industry Trends & Statistics, Growth Forecasts (2025 - 2030)
Market Report I 2025-04-28 I 120 Pages I Mordor Intelligence
The Global Fluoro Elastomers Market is expected to register a CAGR of greater than 6% during the forecast period.
Due to the COVID-19 outbreak, there were nationwide lockdowns around the world, disruptions in manufacturing activities and supply chains, and production halts that negatively impacted the market. However, the conditions started recovering, restoring the market's growth trajectory during the forecast period.
Key Highlights
- The major factors driving the market's growth are rising usage in sealing applications and the surge in applications in the automotive industry.
- Environmental laws that are getting stricter and dangerous working conditions are likely to slow the growth of the market.
- In the coming years, the market should be able to take advantage of new ways to use perfluorocarbon elastomers.
- The Asia-Pacific region is expected to dominate the market and to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period.
Fluoroelastomers Market Trends
Increasing Demand for Fluorocarbon Elastomers
- Fluorocarbon elastomers are carbon-based polymers that have a lot of fluorine added to them. They are used in places where they need to be resistant to harsh chemicals and ozone. There are, however, specialty-grade fluorocarbons that can provide high fluorine content with low-temperature properties.
- Fluorocarbon elastomers have become of vital importance in seal manufacturing. Due to its wide chemical compatibility, wide temperature range, low compression set, and excellent aging characteristics, fluorocarbon rubber is the most significant single elastomer developed over the years.
- Fluorocarbons are more resistant to a wider range of chemicals and work better at high temperatures than elastomers. Because of this, O-rings and other custom seals made from fluorocarbons are used more often than other types of elastomers around the world.
- These elastomers are very resistant to swelling and breaking down when they are exposed to gasoline, UV light, and ozone. Fluorocarbon elastomers can get hard at 4 F, but they can still be used at low temperatures. However, these compounds are not ideal for applications that need good flexibility at low temperatures.
- Additionally, some of the other materials are also present with a differing composition of monomers and fluorine content (65-71% for improved resistance against low and high temperatures or chemicals). Fluorocarbon elastomers provide low gas permeability, making them suitable for vacuum service applications and many other industrial applications.
- The Ministry of Defense uses fluorocarbon elastomers to build high-performance machinery that needs premium quality components to provide stability in extreme endurance conditions. Fluorocarbon elastomers also offer a solution to the aerospace and automotive industries.
- In the United States, the number of aircraft increased in 2021; the general aviation fleet was 204,405 and the for-hire carrier fleet decreased to 5,815 aircraft. The United States has one of the world's largest aviation markets. More people are transported by U.S. airlines than by airlines from any other nation, and about half of the top ten revenue-generating airlines in the globe are based in the United States.
- A thriving domestic Chinese commercial aviation industry is the result of rising incomes, tourism, and business activity, which are all driving factors in domestic and international travel. The Civil Aviation Administration of China says that by 2035, there will be a total of 450 large commercial service airports. This means that commercial aviation is expected to keep growing.
- By June 2021, there were 3,066 general aviation aircraft operating in China, an increase of four percent compared to 2020. Since 2014, the number of general aviation aircraft in China has grown steadily by nearly 103 percent.
- Owing to all these factors, the market for fluoroelastomers is expected to grow across the world during the forecast period.
Asia-Pacific Region to Dominate the Market
- The Asia-Pacific region is expected to dominate the market. China and India are among the region's largest economies. The country's manufacturing sector has become one of the biggest production houses in the world, thus providing huge demand for fluoroelastomers.
- Fluoroelastomers are used in the industrial and chemical processing industries to make things like hydraulic O-ring seals, check valve balls, diaphragms, industrial roll covers, V-ring packers, and so on.
- According to the National Bureau of Statistics, China's manufacturing output grew to CNY 31.4 trillion (USD 4.64 trillion) in 2021, up from around 30% of the global manufacturing sector.
- The Chinese aircraft industry has depicted significant growth over the years. According to Boeing, Chinese airlines will need 8,700 new airplanes, 1.2% more than its previous prediction of 8,600 planes made the previous year. These would be worth USD 1.47 trillion by 2040.
- Nearly 60% of the world's cars are made in this area, making it the biggest center for making cars.According to OICA, the total production of vehicles stood at 80.15 million units in 2021, an increase of 3% compared to the previous year.
- Due to all these factors, the fluoroelastomers market in the region is expected to have steady growth during the forecast period.
