Trifluoroacetic Acid Market: Overview

Trifluoroacetic is a colorless liquid with having pungent odor. It is an organofluorine compound that is used in various medical and pesticide intermediates. It is a widely used chemical and is categorized under the bulk chemicals category. It is derived from acetic acid and is the conjugate acid of trifluoroacetate. It also acts as a reagent in organic synthesis and it is the precursor for many chemical products owing to the high strength, volatility, high dielectric constant, low boiling point, and solubility in many solvents. Trifluoroacetic acid is one of the most stable carboxylic acids and is significantly more acidic than acetic acid. Many chemical reactions such as oxidations, reductions, rearrangements, functional group deprotections, hydroarylation, etc. require trifluoroacetic acid.

The study includes drivers and restraints for the trifluoroacetic acid market along with the impact they have on the demand over the forecast period. Additionally, the report includes the study of opportunities and various trends in the trifluoroacetic acid market on a global as well as regional level.
