Hydrogen Fluoride Market by Type, Application

List of Tables

The Hydrogen Fluoride Market was valued at USD 3.80 billion in 2023, expected to reach USD 3.99 billion in 2024, and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 5.58%, to USD 5.57 billion by 2030.

Hydrogen fluoride (HF) is a colorless gas or liquid that is highly corrosive and has a strong, pungent odor. The scope of hydrogen fluoride extends into various industries, primarily for its role as a key industrial feedstock and as a crucial component in the production of fluorocarbons and aluminum. The necessity of HF arises primarily from its applications in the petrochemical, pharmaceutical, and electronics industries, where it is used in etching, cleaning, and pollination processes. HF's end-use scope spreads from the manufacture of polymers such as polyvinylidene fluoride to serving as a precursor for high-performance materials.
