Furthermore, a surge in demand for various types of oral care products due to the continuous growth of the global geriatric population and easy availability of numerous types of denture products along with the stringent government regulations to curb the contamination of water and increase in the water treatment expenditure especially in Asia Pacific countries, which in turn, pushing the fluorosilicic acid market growth forward. Water pollution levels have increased drastically in recent years, resulting in various health concerns. Thereby different key market players are developing more improved and enhanced solutions to tackle the issues.

However, the fuming property and corrosive nature of concentrated fluorosilicic acid, mainly above the 20% concentration, and the presence of a pungent odor, which makes it hard for a variety of industries to work with this chemical, are major factors that are expected to hamper the growth of the market. Additionally, the easy availability of its alternatives with cost-effectiveness is also restraining the market demand over the coming years.

The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted the growth of the fluorosilicic Acid market. The rapid emergence of the deadly coronavirus has forced both government and private institutions to slow down their investments and further reduce capital and operational expenditures because of supply chain disruptions and the temporary closure of manufacturing facilities.

40% grade segment accounted for largest market share in 2022

The 40% grade segment accounted for the largest market share in 2022 and is likely to retain its position throughout the forecast period. The growth of the segment market can be mainly attributed to increased usage in the manufacturing of pure silicon and continuously growing used as gelling agent & also as a fluorinating agent for the conversion of organo-dichloro-phosphorus compounds to the corresponding compounds. Moreover, the growing awareness regarding its ability to preserve the level of fluorine in the water and hence avoid tooth decay is likely to fuel the demand and growth of the segment over the coming years.

The 25% grade segment is expected to have the highest growth rate during the study period, mainly driven by its growing use to remove various toxins and high prevalence in the textile industry for processing fabrics. In addition, the lower product concentration makes them highly preferable in multiple applications, including detergent manufacturing and hide processing, that are expected to boost the demand and growth of the segment market.

Water fluoridation segment held the significant market revenue share in 2022

The water fluoridation segment held a significant market revenue share in 2022 because of the rapidly increasing use of fluorosilicic acid in many water treatment plants across the globe. It is being highly used and added to the water treatment plants for providing a total fluoride F level recognized for eliminating tooth decay, resulting in higher demand for the product in the segment market. In addition, the continuously growing water consumption worldwide, along with the numerous stringent government regulations and rising prevalence of safe water supply for water systems because of the increasing health concerns among people, are further likely to contribute positively to the market growth.

However, the textile processing segment is projected to register a considerable growth rate over the study period, owing to increasing product demand in various textile applications due to its superior cleansing properties and its help in removing rust, stains, and mold from the fabric. Additionally, this chemical further protects the fiber with the help of forming a thin film coating around the material, which minimizes surface tension, thereby propelling the demand and growth of the market from textile processing applications.

The demand in Europe is expected to witness significant growth during forecast period

Europe is expected to emerge as the fastest-growing region in the fluorosilicic market over the projected period. The increasing consumption of the product for producing hydrogen-fluoride primarily used in aluminum, gasoline, and refrigerants, along with the rising preferences across various application industries, including surface treatment electroplating and lead refining industries, are key factors expected to fuel the market growth in the region. Furthermore, the robust presence of leading textile brands in the area, like Louis Vuitton, Hermes, and Charvet Place Vendome, and penetration for highly-efficient in-fabric cleaning and conditioning will likely impact the market growth positively.

Asia Pacific region dominated the global market for fluorosilicic acid in 2022 and is expected to maintain its dominance throughout the forecast period. The rapid demand and need for this acid from various water treatment plants and a growing number of applications in the construction sector, mainly in developing regions such as China, India, and South Korea, are major factors propelling the growth of the APAC region at a significant pace. Moreover, the evolution of environment-friendly chemicals, which are highly required in textile industries, and the development of the packaging sector, have further enhanced the application of the product and are likely to augment the market's growth in the forecast period.
