SAM Sulfur Hexafluoride Market to 2027 –COVID-19 Impact and Analysis by Grade (Electronic Grade, UHP Grade, and Standard Grade), End-user (Power and Energy, Electronics, Metal Manufacturing, Medical, and Others)
Number of Pages: 62
Market Introduction
Sulfur hexafluoride is defined as a colorless and odorless gas which has a chemical formula of SF6. The gas is composed of one sulfur atom that is surrounded by six fluorine atoms and possesses excellent characteristic features that are quite compatible with diversified application bases. The gas is known for its chemical inertness, non-toxicity, non-combustibility, and non-corrosiveness primarily used as an insulating and arc interrupting agent in the power transmission & distribution sector and as an etching agent in the electronics & semiconductor sector. SAM is the fastest growing market for the sulfur hexafluoride on account of rising sulfur hexafluoride applications across several end-use application bases backed by positive government measures to support the growth of the industry. Further, an increase in the disposable income coupled with increased investment in the advancement of technology is also likely to drive the demand for sulfur hexafluoride in the SAM market. Thus, the mitigating options of sulfur hexafluoride emissions in the electric power sector are expected to create a significant demand for electronic grades in the coming years, which are further anticipated to drive the SAM Sulfur Hexafluoride market.
Market Overview and Dynamics
The Sulfur Hexafluoride market in SAM is expected to grow from US$ 27.74 million in 2019 to US$ 41.42 million by 2027; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 5.1% from 2020 to 2027. Developing nations are adopting HDVC transmission. HDVC systems can also control the magnitude and direction of power flow with the help of switchgear and other switching elements of the converter. In HDVC transmission, the designs are connected with the use of power grids in a particular area, eliminating the issues related to electricity loss in that area. The physicochemical properties, discharge characteristics of Sulfur hexafluoride, and its gap breakdown characteristics under non-uniform electric fields make it suitable for use in HDVC transmission systems. HDVC transmission is gaining importance in SAM due to an upsurge in demand for power consumption. Thus, the HDVC transmission offers future growth opportunities for market players operating in the SAM market. The need for higher electric power over long distances is increasing in several industries. This is bolstering the growth of the Sulfur Hexafluoride market.
The COVID 19 pandemic has impacted the major countries in SAM, and many of these countries are under lockdown, which is adversely affecting the sulfur hexafluoride market. Brazil has the highest number of COVID-19 cases in SAM, followed by Ecuador, Chile, Peru, and Argentina, among others. Governments of South American countries have taken several actions to protect their citizens and contain COVID-19 spread.
