Description

The global Anhydrous Hydrogen Fluoride (AHF) market size is predicted to grow from US$ 4399 million in 2025 to US$ 5481 million in 2031; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 3.7% from 2025 to 2031.

The impact of the latest U.S. tariff measures and the corresponding policy responses from countries worldwide on market competitiveness, regional economic performance, and supply chain configurations will be comprehensively evaluated in this report.

Anhydrous hydrofluoric acid also called anhydrous hydrogen fluoride, Anhydrous Hydrofluoric Acid is a toxic, corrosive, nonflammable, liquefied gas packaged in cylinders under its own vapor pressure of 14.1 psia at 70 °F. The gas is colorless, but generates white fumes in moist air. The reaction with water will produce heat and form very corrosive hydrofluoric acid. It has a repulsive, irritating, acidic odor that usually can be detected at low concentrations. Direct skin contact can cause severe burns that may not be immediately painful or visible. Inhalation of fumes can lead to inflammation and congestion of the lungs, and circulatory collapse.

The global anhydrous hydrofluoric acid (AHF) market continues to show steady growth, led by its dominant use in fluorocarbon production, semiconductor manufacturing, lithium‑ion battery supply chains, and petroleum refining. AHF remains the preferred grade—capturing more than 70% of the overall hydrofluoric acid market—with expected mid-to-high single-digit CAGR through the late 2020s . Demand is being propelled by increasing semiconductor fabrication (driven by advanced nodes and 3D architectures necessitating ultra-pure etchants), rising global adoption of cooling systems and refrigerants, and a shift toward clean energy technologies such as EV batteries, which use AHF in producing lithium hexafluorophosphate electrolyte salts On the supply side, the market has experienced a balanced scenario: raw material costs (like fluorite and sulfuric acid) have moderately eased, but tight downstream demand—especially during peak refrigerant season—has maintained strong pricing and inventory discipline. Technological advances in production and recycling are enhancing safety and reducing environmental footprint, although regulatory constraints, geopolitical tensions, and volatility in fluorspar supply continue to pose risks. Overall, AHF remains a critical specialty chemical, underpinned by consistent end-market demand and gradual but durable capacity expansions.
