  Growing use in medical industry is driving the market growth

  
  

The rising number of obese people drives Market CAGR for trifluoroacetic acid. It is anticipated that over the projected period, the worldwide trifluoroacetic acid market will expand at a healthy rate. Trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) demand is expected to increase ly due to growing chemical, agricultural, and pharmaceutical demand. Trifluoroacetic acid is crucial in medicinal, agrochemical, and performance products. Numerous additional fluorinated substances, including trifluoroacetic anhydride, trifluoroacetic acid, and 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol, can be made from TFA. Due to its practical properties—volatility, solubility in organic solvents, and acidic strength—trifluoroacetic acid is recognized as a high-performance solvent, catalyst, and reagent.

Additionally, TFA is more easily accessible in anhydrous form than many other acids and is less oxidizing than sulfuric acid. High level of pharmaceutical industry demand In the chemical synthesis used in the pharmaceutical business, trifluoroacetic acid is a useful reagent. It is frequently used as a raw material for important trifluoroacetylating compounds, including ethyl trifluoroacetate, trifluoromethylation processes, and peptide synthesis. Some of the most widely distributed pharmaceuticals include mefloquine (Lariam; antimalarial), fluoxetine (Prozac; antidepressant), celecoxib (Celebrex; COX-2 inhibitor), tipranavir (Aptivus; HIV protease inhibitor), and efavirenz. TFA is most frequently employed in effective peptide sequencing and peptide synthesis. Rising R&D expenditures in the pharmaceutical sector are also anticipated to fuel the expansion of the market. Expansion of the agricultural sector The expansion of the agriculture sector is the key factor driving the demand for trifluoracetic acid on a scale. The pesticides business uses the majority of the TFA that is produced. TFA is a frequently found ingredient in agricultural chemicals such as fungicides, insecticides, and herbicides. A CF3 group produced through TFA is present in about 8.5% of the pesticide entries in the pesticide’s manual. Beflubutamid, flazasulfuron, flonicamid, fluazinam, acrinatrin, picoxystrobin, bifenthrin,diflufenican, sulfoxaflor, pyroxsulam, and prosulfuron are a few examples of common pesticides. Therefore, the expanding agriculture sector is expected to fuel the market expansion during the review period. The uplifting perspective of the drug business in South Asia: Over the following five years, the Southeast Asian drug market is supposed to increase yearly by over 11%, with deals arriving at USD 40 billion in 2020. Accordingly, it has become one of the world's quickest-extending drug markets. The locale rewards drug organizations that can synergize great assembling rehearses (GMP) norms, cutthroat estimating, and a product procedure. Drug organizations in South Asia will benefit from rising medical services spending, a maturing populace, the more noteworthy occurrence of the way of life-related sicknesses, and a rising Gross domestic product per capita. Thailand has the quickest maturing populace on the planet. As indicated by the World Wellbeing Association (WHO), 13% of the populace (10.3 million individuals) is over 60. By 2025, the older will represent 25% of the populace. Thus, driving the Trifluoroacetic Acid market revenue.

In 2024: Chemours introduced a new high-purity trifluoroacetic acid designed for pharmaceutical and chemical synthesis applications.
