Chinese alternatives to Chemours
3 China-built fluoropolymers (Teflon), refrigerants (Opteon, Freon) and titanium dioxide (Ti-Pure) options.
Fluoropolymers (PTFE, FEP, PVDF and FKM fluoroelastomer) and HCFC/HFC refrigerants (R22, R32, R125, R134a, R410A), plus silicone rubber and fluids and chlor-alkali ion-exchange membranes, made mainly in Zibo, Shandong. Refrigerants were 34% and fluoropolymers 27% of 2025 revenue.
