The global hydro fluoric acid market  market size was USD 4794 million in 2022 and is projected to touch USD 8030.52 million by 2031, at a CAGR of 5.9% during the forecast period.

Hydro fluoric acid is an inorganic acid that is colourless and has a strong, pungent smell. It is created when water and hydrogen fluoride combine. The synthesis of fluorine compounds, such as fluorocarbons, fluorides, and fluoropolymers, makes extensive use of the acid.Hydro fluoric acid is also used in industry and laboratories to clean brass and crystal, remove rust and stains, and etch glass and enamel. The manufacturing of fluorocarbons, metal pickling, uranium fuel, fluorinated derivatives, and oil refining are just a few industries that use the acid. To create various fluorochemicals, the acid is used as a base substance or an intermediary. It is used as a raw material to produce fluorocarbons, such as hydrofluoroolefins, hydrofluorocarbons, and hydro chlorofluorocarbons, as a source of fluorine.

COVID-19 Impact: Supply and Demand Chain were Disrupted Due to Restrictions Imposed

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with the market experiencing lower-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden spike in CAGR is attributable to demand returning to pre-pandemic levels once the pandemic is over.

The sudden emerging of pandemic which brought about lockdown, as the disease entered several industries value and supply chains, including the hydro fluoric acid market. It caused some of the industries to slow down their activities , the industrial venture of many companies came to halt their work in 2021. This happening negatively hampered the hydro fluoric acid market share till 2021. Owing to the brighter side the rule out of the restrictions imposed and relaxation to lockdown stirred up the hydro fluoric acid market growth.

LATEST TRENDS

"Increasing Demand From Chemical Industry to Advance the Market Share"

In the chemical processing industry, hydro fluoric acid is used as a cleaning and etching agent, as well as in the manufacturing of fluorides such cryolite, sodium fluoride, aluminium trifluoride, and organofluorine compounds like fluoropolymers, fluorocarbons, and freons. During the projected period, it is anticipated that the worldwide chemical processing industry would expand quickly. Hydro fluoric acid can be used to clean brass and crystal, remove rust, and etch glass and enamel in industrial and laboratory environments.The increasing utilization in sealing applications and penetration into emerging applications in a variety of end-user sectors, as a result, during the course of the forecast period, the chemical processing industry is anticipated to dominate the worldwide hydro fluoric acid market.

DRIVING FACTORS

"Rising Industrial-Based Applications to Accelerate the Market Demand"

The increased use of industrial hydrofluoric acid in the synthesis of fluorine compounds is what is fueling the expansion of the market for the product. These fluorine compounds include, among others, fluorochemicals, fluorides, and fluorocarbons. Additionally, the market is expanding due to the rising demand for fluorocarbons utilized as cooling agents in air conditioners and refrigeration equipment.The increase in demand for the acid, which is used to make the aluminium fluoride utilized in the production of aluminium goods, can be attributed to the market expansion. As a result, the global market for the acid is expanding as a result of the increasing usage of aluminium in a variety of end-use industries, including manufacturing, packaging, and the automotive industry. The growing use of acid as a cleaning agent in the automotive sector to remove rust, stains, and water spots is also favorably impacting the market's expansion.

"Increasing Consumption and Fluorochemical Production to Fuel Up the Market Share"

One of the key reasons that is projected to drive the demand over the forecast period is the rising usage of the acid in the manufacturing of fluorochemicals and fluorine components globally. It is an aqueous form of hydrogen fluoride that is mostly utilized in the manufacturing of electronics, glass etching, and other industrial products. Also found in household rust removers. The product is primarily sold in two grades: anhydrous hydrofluoric acid and diluted hydrofluoric acid. Anhydrous hydrofluoric acid is becoming more and more popular since it is less harmful and produces better results at low temperatures.Fluorocarbon is also becoming more and more necessary for the manufacturing of glass printing, glass cleaning, oil refining, and other products. This is fueling the market expansion for the product.

RESTRAINING FACTORS

"The Toxicity and Hazardous Nature to Restrain the Market"

Hydrofluoric acid is harmful to humans because it can permanently harm the corneas of the eyes and lungs. Regarding the employees who must work around the acid, there is a great deal of worry. In addition, because of the harmful effects of the acid, environmental problems are also prevalent. The ozone layer of the atmosphere is negatively affected by fluorocarbon refrigerants. As a result, a number of governments and organizations are putting restrictions on the usage of fluorocarbon refrigerants. This chemical is also extremely poisonous and corrosive. Inhaling or coming into direct contact with the acid can have serious health repercussions.
