Dublin, March 08, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Global Fluoroelastomer (FKM) Market Analysis: Plant Capacity, Production, Operating Efficiency, Demand & Supply, End-User Industries, Sales Channel, Regional Demand, Company Share, 2015-2032" database has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The global Fluoroelastomer (FKM) market has touched the number of around 35 thousand tonnes in 2021 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 3.45% during the forecast period until 2032.
The Solvay group has recently announced that they will increase the productivity of fluoroelastomers by 30% at the company's site in Spinetta Marengo, Italy. The new capacity was commissioned in 2021 and is expected to expand the supply of FKM with Europe and international export to the US and China.
The rate of development of fluoroelastomers is expanding globally due to recent developments. The need for fluoroelastomers has expanded due to their numerous applications in the industrial application (sealing), oil and gas, automotive and chemical processing industries.
On the global level, the top producers are from China, with approximately 40% of the production of FKM from the top five FKM-producing companies in the year 2021. Thus, almost half of the FKM is produced by China, and it is anticipated that China will lead the FKM production in the forecasted period.
Based on the end-user industry, the global FKM market is segmented into different industrial sectors that include Automotive, Chemicals & Petrochemicals, Industrial, Aerospace, and others. However, automotive is the dominating sector as the consumer of FKM and is anticipated to remain the leading consumer in 2032.
In the automotive industry, FKM is employed to manufacture electrical connectors, diaphragms, shaft seals, check valve balls, clips for jet engines, lathe-cut gaskets, and more. The demand for FKM in the Aerospace sector is expected to soar in the forecast period.The components made with FKM are premium in quality that remains stable during extreme conditions such as low and high temperatures.
In the Aerospace sector, FKM is utilized to create O-ring seals, valve stem seals, fuel injector O-rings, fuel hoses, valve liners, sheet stock gaskets, and many more components. Fluoroelastomers are utilized in the chemical processing sector to prevent corrosion.
