Market Definition
Anhydrous hydrogen fluoride is a colourless toxic gas with a sharp odour at room temperature and exists mainly in the form of H2F2 dimer below temperature of 19.9 ° C. It is a colourless mobile volatile liquid. It is miscible with water in any ratio with the formation of hydrofluoric acid. It forms an azeotropic mixture with water at 35.4% concentration of HF. Anhydrous hydrogen fluoride is formed from natural raw materials such as fluorspar.
Anhydrous Hydrofluoric Acid Market Dynamics
Drivers
- Rise the demand in chemical industry
Chemical industry widely used anhydrous hydrofluoric acid. Anhydrous hydrofluoric acid is used as an intermediate material for the production of fluoropolymers and fluorocarbons which displays high potential for revenue generation. This includes the manufacture of HFCs, CFCs, HCFCs, and HFO, amongst others. This in turn, it is driven by demand in air conditioning and refrigeration products which are expected to drive the growth of the anhydrous hydrofluoric acid.
