The global Fluorosurfactants market was valued at USD 418.3 million in 2016 and is projected to reach USD 946.7 million by 2025, growing at a CAGR of 9.5% from 2017 to 2025.
Fluorosurfactants are chemical compounds made up of several fluorine atoms. They have a hydrophilic head and a fluorine tail. The reactive nature of fluorine is used in the manufacture of detergents and paints. However, the major restraint for market growth is the toxicity of fluorine.
The market is driven by the better performance of fluorosurfactants in various application areas, such as paints & coatings and specialty detergents ascompared to other surfactants, and the increasing demand for less toxic, short-chain fluorosurfactants due to stringent environmental regulations.
The paints & coatings application segment accounted for the largest share of the global fluorosurfactants market. Fluorosurfactants are used in paints & coatings owing to their better wetting and leveling properties as compared to other surfactants. The growth of the paints & coatings industry globally is driving the paints & coatings application segment of the fluorosurfactants market. The specialty detergents segment accounted for the second-largest market share.
