Ethylene tetrafluoroethylene in granular form is extruded into films & sheets and wires & cables, which are then used by various industries such as automotive, aerospace, and chemical processing. The excellent tear propagation resistance and extremely high resistance to the outdoor weathering offered by them, make ethylene tetrafluoroethylene granules suitable for the production of architectural and other films. This factor will drive the growth of ethylene tetrafluoroethylene market in the forecast period.
By Technology– Segment Analysis
The Injection Molding technology segment held the largest share in the ethylene tetrafluoroethylene market in 2019. It is a quick process to create a mass amount of identical plastic parts. The flexibility in shape and size achievable by the use of injection molding has consistently widened the boundaries of design in plastics and allowed substantial alternatives of traditional materials due to design freedom and light weight. Ethylene tetrafluoroethylene resins can be processed at a wide range of temperatures due to their improved thermal stability and low melting points using the conventional injection molding techniques. Injection molding is a manufacturing process commonly used for fabricating items from plastic trinkets and toys to automotive body parts, cell phone cases, water bottles, and containers. Essentially many of the plastic parts that we use in every-day life are injection molded.
By Application – Segment Analysis
Coating segment held the largest share in the ethylene tetrafluoroethylene market in terms of application. Ethylene tetrafluoroethylene based coatings are highly durable and weather able, last for around 30 years, which is far longer than traditional paints or coatings (10 years for conventional coatings) and can be cured at room temperature, which makes them ideal for outdoor and on-site applications. Moreover, the ethylene tetrafluoroethylene is recyclable and does not cause any hazardous emissions in the environment, thus making it suitable use in buildings. Insulations segment held the second largest share in the ethylene tetrafluoroethylene market. Ethylene tetrafluoroethylene-based insulations are commonly used in medical and scientific instruments. Increasing consumer awareness regarding energy conservation is estimated to driving the growth of Insulation segment. Factors such as integration of renewable energy sources, expansion of the existing infrastructure and deployment of electric vehicle charging stations are expected to drive the insulation market which will further drive the growth of ethylene tetrafluoroethylene market in the forecast period.
By End User – Segment Analysis
Building and Construction sector is the primary market for the ethylene tetrafluoroethylene in 2019 growing at CAGR of 8.5%. Many of the commercial buildings in the United States and China are incorporating ethylene tetrafluoroethylene to provide an easy adjustment of coatings in the buildings as per requirement. The growth of ethylene tetrafluoroethylene can be taken as directly proportional to the growth of building and construction industry. By 2020, construction output is estimated to grow by 70% to $12.7 trillion and will account for 14.6% of the world output with some of the larger emerging markets such as China, India, Russia, Brazil and Poland driving growth, along with U.S. Global GDP growth of 3.5% and 3.6% is expected in 2017 and 2018 respectively however the meteoric growth that outpaces global GDP will be concentrated in countries like China, India and U.S. India will overtake Japan as the third-largest construction market with annual growth averaging 7.4% annually in construction. This factor will drive the growth of ethylene tetrafluoroethylene market in the forecast period. The disruption of COVID-19 has almost certainly impacted the prices of construction products and materials. The impact of COVID-19 on construction sector can be spotted till year 2020 followed by which the industry will have persistent growth during forecast period.

Challenges – Ethylene Tetrafluoroethylene market
- Ethylene Tetrafluoroethylene materials constructed buildings transmits higher level of sound
Ethylene tetrafluoroethylene is not a natural building material, it is a plastic, after all. That is why ethylene tetrafluoroethylene materials constructed buildings, transmits more sound than glass, and can be too noisy for some places. Ethylene tetrafluoroethylene is usually applied in several layers that must be inflated and require steady air pressure. Depending on how the architect has designed it, the look of a building could drastically change if the machines that supply the pressure fail. As a relatively new product, ethylene tetrafluoroethylene is only used in large commercial ventures. Therefore, working with ethylene tetrafluoroethylene is too complex for small residential projects.
