Asia Pacific held the largest share of the global sulfur hexafluoride market in 2019. The high demand for sulfur hexafluoride in the region is attributed to the ongoing development and expansion of the industrial sector, and growing government investments in the electrical and electronics sectors. Further, the presence of leading manufacturers in the region such as Fujian ShaowuYongfei Chemical Co., Ltd, SHOWA DENKO K.K., Solvay S.A, Iwatani Corporation, and many others is also anticipated to stimulate the growth of the market in this region.
The thermal stability and high dielectric strength of sulfur hexafluoride offers outstanding cooling and insulating properties. It is feasibly used in several appliances with an operating voltage range of 33–800 kV. These appliances might also include those used in power generation plants, which further propels the demand for Sulfur hexafluoride in the power and energy sector. Its compact size & weight, reliable handling, and maintenance makes it a better option for medium and high voltage switchgear designs. In comparison with other conventional dielectric media, sulfur hexafluoride ensures space savings, low weight, and operational safety of the equipment. The high molar heat capacity, coupled with low viscosity of sulfur hexafluoride, permits effective heat transfer. Besides this, as sulfur hexafluoride is chemically inert, non-flammable, non-toxic, and non-corrosive gas, even at low temperatures, it has increasingly high demand in the electronics industry.
