概要

「永遠の化学物質」として知られるPFASは、さまざまな日用品に広く浸透しています。PFASは、その環境残留性と潜在的な健康リスクのために懸念が高まっています。これらの化学製品は、こびりつかない調理器具、撥水剤、防汚加工されたファブリック、泡消火薬剤、食品包装など、数多くの日用品に広く含まれており、その高い性能から重宝されています。現在、世界で市販されているPFASは3,000種類以上あります。しかし、PFASに対する規制は勢いを増しています。特に、カリフォルニア州（2025年まで）とニューヨーク州（2024年まで）は率先して禁止を実施しており、欧州連合（EU）も同様の規制を積極的に推進しています。その結果、PFASの使用をめぐる環境問題への懸念と規制圧力の高まりに対応して、さまざまな産業や用途でPFASのさまざまな代替品が開発されています。

当レポートでは、世界のペルフルオロアルキル/ポリフルオロアルキル化合物（PFAS）市場と急成長する代替品部門について調査分析し、さまざまな産業におけるPFAS使用、代替品開発、市場力学の情勢の変化に関する知見を提供しています。

PFAS, otherwise known as 'forever chemicals,' are widespread in an array of everyday products. PFAS are a growing concern due to their environmental persistence and potential health risks. These manufactured chemicals are widespread and found in numerous everyday products like non-stick cookware, water repellents, stain-resistant fabrics, firefighting foams, and food packaging, where they are valued due to their high performance. There are more than 3000 types of PFAS commercially available on the world market today. However, regulatory restrictions on PFAS are gaining momentum. Notably, California (by 2025) and New York (by 2024) have taken the lead by implementing bans, and the European Union is actively pushing for a similar restriction. As a result, various alternatives to PFAS across different industries and applications are being developed in response to growing environmental concerns and regulatory pressures surrounding PFAS use.

This extensive market research report provides a thorough analysis of the global Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) market and the fast growing alternatives sector.
