1. Global PFA Breakthrough: High-Purity PFA Enters Mass Production for Semiconductor Markets
The high-end fluoropolymer market is witnessing a historic milestone. Leading domestic chemical enterprises have officially commenced the mass production of ultra-pure PFA (perfluoroalkoxy alkane), a critical material for advanced manufacturing. The newly produced PFA achieves semiconductor-grade purity, with key metallic ion leaching stably controlled at the parts-per-trillion (ppt) level. This breakthrough successfully breaks the long-term monopoly of overseas giants in the ultra-high-purity segment. For international buyers, this means a more stable, high-quality, and cost-effective supply chain for critical applications in semiconductor fabrication and advanced electronics.
2. Export Data Update: Fluoropolymer Shipments Surge in June 2026
According to the latest customs data released for June 2026, China’s fluoropolymer exports continue to show strong momentum, reflecting robust overseas demand. Specifically, exports of primary-shape PTFE reached 3,018 tons in June, marking a significant year-on-year increase of 17.72%. Additionally, exports of other primary-shape fluoropolymers (which include various FEP and PFA grades) hit 3,730 tons, surging by 23.79% compared to the same period last year. This data underscores the solid international demand for high-performance fluoroplastics in anti-corrosion equipment, new energy, and wire & cable applications.
3. Market Price Update: PTFE and FEP Prices Stabilize in Mid-July
As of mid-July 2026, the domestic spot market for fluororesins is maintaining a stable trend. According to the latest market tracking data, the national average price for PTFE medium-grain resin is holding steady at 46,000 RMB/ton, while PTFE dispersion resin is priced at 49,000 RMB/ton. Meanwhile, FEP (fluorinated ethylene propylene) prices remain firm at 54,000 RMB/ton. Despite slight fluctuations in upstream raw material costs, the pricing for these core fluoroplastics remains resilient, indicating a balanced supply-demand dynamic and providing a stable cost baseline for global procurement.
