The global anhydrous hydrogen fluoride market (mercado de fluoruro de hidrógeno anhidro) is projected to experience steady growth over the next decade, expanding at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.8% from 2023 to 2033. The market’s valuation, which stood at around USD 3.4 billion in 2023, is expected to reach approximately USD 5.7 billion by 2033. This growth is driven by increasing demand from key end-use industries such as chemicals, electronics, and refrigeration. AHF is a crucial raw material for the production of fluorochemicals, which are extensively used in refrigeration and air-conditioning systems. Additionally, rising consumption of aluminum and petrochemical products, coupled with the growing adoption of AHF in the electronics sector for etching and cleaning applications, is further boosting market demand. However, stringent environmental regulations concerning the use of fluorinated chemicals could pose challenges to the market’s growth in certain regions.
Fluorspar is the main raw material used to make anhydrous hydrogen fluoride. According to the national renewable energy laboratory, China mines more acid-grade fluorspar than any other country in the world, amounting to 2,500 kilotons each year (USGS 2017). The following two largest producers of acid-grade fluorspar are South Africa and Mexico, with each country producing around 600 kilotons annually (150 kilotons).
Anhydrous hydrogen fluoride is one of the fastest-growing markets in the world as a result of the quick development of the chemical and consumer products sectors. Additionally, due to the region’s developing chemical manufacturing industry, demand has increased in North America, while it has increased in Asia Pacific for fluorine compounds used in metallurgical and metal extraction applications. The anhydrous hydrogen fluoride market is expected to grow as a result of the extensive use of fluorogases in the manufacturing of HFCs, CFCs, and HCFCs for use in HVAC systems, self-chilling beverage cans, defrost systems, refrigeration equipment, and other applications. The predominant technology for mobile refrigeration and air conditioning, as well as for commercial and residential applications, is vapor compression systems.
