Polytetrafluoroethylene, PTFE, or Teflon are a class of synthetic fluoropolymers of tetrafluoroethylene, and they are known for their properties like high heat and electrical resistance while being lightweight, dimensionally stable with excellent chemical inertness. According to BlueQuark Research & Consulting, the global polytetrafluoroethylene market is expected to witness a significant growth rate during the forecasted period. Factors like the increasing use of Polytetrafluoroethylene in the Industries as coatings for heat exchangers, pumps, diaphragms, tanks, etc., are expected to drive the global market. Further, Polytetrafluoroethylene in the automotive industry to manufacture components like plain bearings, gears, seals, gaskets, slide plates, etc., is projected to drive the global market. Furthermore, the use of Polytetrafluoroethylene as flexible printed circuit boards, semiconductor parts in the electronics industry is expected to drive the global market. The use of PTFE in the construction industry as pipes, sheets, and coatings is projected to drive the market. Furthermore, its use in the medical industry to make peripheral vascular grafts, orthopedic and dental equipment is expected to drive the global market. However, factors like stringent government policies, high costs associated with PTFE, and availability of substitutes are expected to restrict the future market growth.

Polytetrafluoroethylene is used as a coating for impellers, reaction vessels, O-rings, PTFE film, PTFE fabrics, PTFE membrane, gaskets, valve stem seals, shaft seals, linings for fuel hoses, non stick cookware, coatings for pipes, fittings, valves, among others. Polytetrafluoroethylene is also used in end-use industries like chemical, automotive, electrical, construction, and medical.

The Industrial and Chemical Processing Industries are the prime users of Polytetrafluoroethylene and are projected to drive the Global Polytetrafluoroethylene Market. Properties like high heat, electrical and chemical resistance, along with reduced stress cracking, have made Polytetrafluoroethylene one of the standard PTFE coating used on equipment in industries where high heat and corrosive chemicals are used. BASF Coatings reported a 56% year-on-year growth in their second-quarter results of 2021, with global sales crossing EUR 19.8 Billion. Owing to its versatile coating properties, which can be applied to metals, glasses, and machinery, there is enhanced use of Polytetrafluoroethylene in industries. At the same time, the superior corrosion resistance and chemical inertness has made Polytetrafluoroethylene an ideal choice for use in the chemical as well as in oil and gas exploratory activities owing to its properties. The ability of PTFE to decrease wear and fuel consumption in machinery has made its use as a lubricant in industries. The increasing demand for the chemical industry around the globe will further create the need for the Polytetrafluoroethylene market in the sector and drive the global market.

Some of the market's key players are The Chemours Company , The 3M Company , AFT Fluorotec, Ltd., Daikin Industries, Ltd., Gujarat Fluorochemicals Limited, among others.

The Asia Pacific region is expected to be the leader in Polytetrafluoroethylene production, with most of the consumption in China and India. China is the vastest base for automobile production globally. Further, as estimated by the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers, vehicle sales in China are expected to hit nearly 27 million in 2021, up 6.7 percent year-on-year. Since products made from PTFE are engineered and used in both conventional and electric vehicles, the use of Polytetrafluoroethylene is expected to grow and drive the overall market. Further, China, Japan, and South Korea are some of the largest electronics manufacturers, which uses Polytetrafluoroethylene as one of the insulating components, thus surging the demand for Polytetrafluoroethylene in the region. Samsung Electronics quoted its sales for the electronics in their quarter one results for 2021 as KRW 65.39 Trillion, a 6% year-on-year increase. Since greater than 60% of the world's population resides in the Asia Pacific region, there is an increasing demand for healthcare and construction, the use of Polytetrafluoroethylene in the construction industry is critical, where it is used to provide friction-control performance wherever components move about one another, for expansion joints, slide bearings, on bridge bearings and dams, gaskets and electrical insulation, also, as an insulator to prevent thermal bridging is projected to drive the market in the region. Further, the chemical inertness and stability in high-stress applications have made Polytetrafluoroethylene ideal in the medical and healthcare industry, which is critical in the region's growth and safety. Factors like these have made the Asia Pacific an essential scope for the global Polytetrafluoroethylene market.

In September 2020, The Chemours Company invested USD 86 Million to acquire Georgia based company to open a new mining operation in Wayne County.
