Polyvinylidene Fluoride (PVDF) Market – Market Overview

PVDF is an engineered polymer synthesized by polymerization of Vinylidene Difluoride. It is used in numerous applications wherein greater purity, resistance to inorganic and organic solvents, acids and bases are the desired properties. PVDF finds applications into vast number of industries such as chemicals, electronics, new energy, construction, and pharmaceuticals, among others. Apart from these applications PVDF is significantly used in piping & tubing, sheets & films, membrane, cable, and an insulator for premium wire. The major characteristic feature of PVDF when compared to other Fluoropolymers, such as Polytetrafluoroethylene (Teflon), is a low density and light weight, which makes it useful in construction and automotive sector. The primary factor driving growth of the market is increasing demand for PVDF in vast number of applications in vast end-use industries coupled with rising acceptance of PVDF is a major factor expected to drive growth of the market over the forecast period. Additionally, an increasing demand for lithium-ion batteries, coatings, sheets, and photovoltaic films is an important factor favoring the demand for the product in coming years. However, the threat of substitutes on account of rapid ongoing research in polymeric materials and growing environmental & health concerns regarding the product, which is more likely to invite regulations limiting its production. Nevertheless, rapidly increasing end use in new energy sector is poised to drive the market during the forecast period.
