Global R-142B Market Size By Type (OEM, Aftermarket), By Application (Refrigerant), By Geographic Scope And Forecast

R-142B Market Size And Forecast

R-142B Market size was valued at USD 248.93 Million in 2021 and is projected to reach USD 345.93 Million by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 3.72% from 2023 to 2030.

Due to increasing concerns about the environment and regulations aimed at decreasing greenhouse gas emissions, consumer interest in lower GWP refrigerants is expected to rise further. The Global R-142B Market report provides a holistic evaluation of the market. The report offers a comprehensive analysis of key segments, trends, drivers, restraints, competitive landscape, and factors that are playing a substantial role in the market.

Global R-142B Market Definition

Think of R142b like thisit's a workhorse in fluoro-organic synthesis, pulling duty as a refrigerant, solvent, sporophore (whatever that is!), and a key raw material. As a refrigerant gas, R142B is typically a colorless gas with a faint, almost sweet smell. Squeeze it, and it becomes a colorless, transparent liquid that loves oil but shies away from water. You'd find it chilling things in high-temperature systems, flipping thermostatic control switches, and even blasting off as an aerial propellant ingredient, plus being super important for making vinylidene fluoride. The catch? This stuff is a major contributor to global warming (high GWP), so many countries are saying "no thanks" under the Montreal Protocol. For instance, the United States has banned the making and bringing in of R-142b since January 1, 2020.

Alternative refrigerants with lower GWP, such as hydrofluoroolefins (HFOs) and hydrocarbons (HCs), are encouraged in industries that previously used R-142b. The R-142B Refrigerators are used because of their non-corrosive properties, high heat of vaporisation, moderate density in liquid form, and high density in gaseous form. Furthermore, many chemicals, such as hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFC), hydrofluorocarbons (HFC), hydrofluoric-olefins (HFO), and other inorganic chemicals, are available for use as refrigerants. R142B refrigerants are primarily used in building air-conditioning systems, as well as in the chemical, pharmaceutical, and food industries.

Global R-142B Market Overview

Rising demand for air conditioners as a result of urbanisation and lifestyle improvements is a major driver of the r142b market. The growing use of refrigerators in refrigeration systems for chemicals, food and beverages, pharmaceuticals, and other industries is driving market growth. Another driving factor for the market is the wide range of applications for PVDF. R142b is used to make PVDF, which is used in industries like aircraft, automobiles, and military aircraft. Emerging advanced technologies will also open new doors for the r142b market.

PVDF (polyvinylidene fluoride) has grown explosively in response to the continuous expansion of application demand in lithium battery manufacturing, photovoltaic backplane, and energy storage. R142b, the main raw material utilized for the production of the fluorine chemical product PVDF, has risen in the same direction, with its most recent price reaching 180000 yuan/ton, a monthly increase of more than 10% and a 12-fold increase over the past year. However, due to environmental concerns, the amount of HCFC-142b used in the refrigerant field is decreasing, and many countries’ restrictive rules are becoming stricter, potentially impeding the market growth.

Global R-142B Market Segmentation Analysis

The Global R-142B Market Segmented on the Basis of Type, Application, and Geography.

R-142B Market, By Type

• OEM
• Aftermarket

Based on Type, the market is segmented into, OEM and Aftermarket. R-142B refrigerant has been produced by the manufacturer of the equipment that will use the refrigerant. For instance, if a refrigerator manufacturer produces a refrigerator that uses R-142B, the R-142B they use is considered OEM. Aftermarket R-142B is usually employed to replace the original refrigerant supplied with the equipment.

R-142B Market, By Application

• Refrigerant
• Others

Based on Application, the market is segmented into Refrigerant and Others. The use of R-142B as a cooling agent in refrigeration systems, such as air conditioning systems, refrigerators, and freezers, is referred to as refrigerant. R-142B is a high-capacity, high-efficiency hydrochlorofluorocarbon (HCFC) refrigerant. It has been widely used as a replacement for CFC refrigerants, which have been phased out due to their ozone-depleting effects.

R-142B Market, By Geography

• North America
• Europe
• Asia Pacific
• Rest of the world

On the basis of Geography, the global R-142B market is classified into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and the Rest of the world. North America is a significant market for R-142B due to the substantial demand for refrigeration and air conditioning systems. The region has an elevated need for R-142B as a refrigerant due to its excellent cooling properties and low ecological impact when compared with older refrigerants like CFCs.
