Description
Lubricant Additives
Recent and upcoming introductions of lubricant specifications for gasoline and diesel engine oils will reshape the lubricant and lubricant additive product mix. This shifting product mix will serve to slow growth in average treat rates when considering the market as a whole. Increasing base oil quality will affect the relative importance of different additives, as higher-quality base oils often require fewer additives with different relative loadings. However, the highly additized engine oil segment will also see growth in treat rates. This new study discusses how these factors will impact sales of lubricant additives going forward.
Product types include:
- Deposit control additives
- Viscosity modifiers
- Antiwear & extreme pressure additives
- Friction modifiers
- Antioxidants
- Corrosion inhibitors
- Emulsifiers
- Other lubricant additives
Markets include:
- Automotive applications – engine oils and transmission and other automotive fluids
- Industrial applications – metalworking fluids, industrial engine oil, and other industrial lubricants
