North America Fluropolymers Market Report – Segmented by Type, Application and Geography – Trends and Forecasts 2015-2020 – Research and Markets

DUBLIN

Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/xvj9bm/north_america) has announced the addition of the “North America Fluropolymers market – Segmented by Type, Application and Geography – Trends and Forecasts (2015-2020)” report to their offering.

The major driving force for fluoropolymers is the realization that these products can increase the life cycle of exterior coatings and subsequently increase the time between recoats. This complements the products and also reduces the costs of infrastructure management by eliminating the number of recoats.

US dominated the North America fluoropolymers market, accounting for a major share in overall consumption in 2014. Canada and Mexico remained second and third largest fluoropolymers consuming countries in the North America. North America, owing to its fast pace of economic advancement and huge demand from a wide range of industries such as electrical and electronics and automobiles, is a frontrunner in the consumption of fluoropolymer. In recent years, US registered a strong demand for fluoropolymers and the trend is expected to continue in the near future.

Fluoropolymers are used in an increasing number of markets – from Coatings & Liners, Mechanical Parts & Components, Films, Additives and number of other segments.

Drivers

The increasing penetration of low volume fluoropolymer such as PVDF and FEP in uses such as semiconductor manufacturing, wire and cable insulation, and coating in construction applications are expected to lead the market towards product innovation and material development. Also, the development of melt processable PTFE is expected to help the future prospects of the maturing PTFE market.

Challenges

Rising continuous rise of environmental concerns has resulted in a new legislation that threatens Fluoropolymers manufacturers, and the rising raw material costs may dampen the overall growth during the period.

Opportunities

The major opportunities in the Fluoropolymers market lies in its increasing demand in industrial maintenance sector particularly due to their chemical and oil resistance property. With the increasing need for protection from UV exposure, use of Fluoropolymers in additives is being practiced increasingly.
