Boron trifluoride is amongst the strongest Lewis acids (electron pair acceptor), and therefore, it finds application as a catalyst for a number of organic synthesis reactions including polymerization, alkylation, isomerization, and other chemical synthesis reactions.
A number of polymer derivatives are being made in the presence of boron trifluoride as a catalyst such as polypropylene and polyethylene. Boron trifluoride gas and its complexes are also being used for manufacturing rubber and other elastomeric polymers, which are increasingly being used across a number of end-use industries. Moreover, boron trifluoride is also used for the synthesis of different range of hydrocarbons such as aromatic hydrocarbons, unsaturated hydrocarbons, alcohols, phenols, and many others.
With growth in oil and gas and petrochemical industries in the region, through shale gas extraction, there has been tremendous growth in hydrocarbons synthesis and other chemicals, which use BF3 as a major catalyst during reaction. This, in turn, is driving the demand for boron trifluoride & complexes in the market, opines the FMI study.
The study also finds that the demand for boron trifluoride (BF3) gas and di ethyl etherate are anticipated to grow with significant CAGRs in terms of value during the forecast period. Furthermore, the applications of boron trifluoride & complexes as catalysts are projected to grow with a healthy CAGR owing to the huge demand generated from synthetic reactions such as polymerization, alkylation, isomerization, and other chemical synthesis.

Stringent Regulations on Manufacturing of Boron Trifluoride & Complexes Could Hinder Growth
Boron trifluoride, especially in the gaseous form, is considered to be a hazardous, toxic, and very corrosive substance. Therefore, there are a number of regulations pertaining to its manufacturing, transportation, labelling, exposure limit, labelling, and others.
Packaging and transportation of the gas is done under extremely high pressure and is a major challenge for manufacturers, distributors, and end users as well. Moreover, for using boron trifluoride in the gaseous form, there must be an appropriate unloading facility at the consumers’ end, which is leading to many of the end users using boron trifluoride in the complexes form. This factor is estimated to hinder the global boron trifluoride market by the end of the forecast period.
