Global Lubricant Viscosity Index Improvers Supply, Demand and Key Producers, 2026-2032
Description
The global Lubricant Viscosity Index Improvers market size is expected to reach $ 4121 million by 2032, rising at a market growth of 3.8% CAGR during the forecast period (2026-2032).
Viscosity Index Improvers (VIIs), also known as Viscosity Modifiers, comprise a class of additives that improve the viscosity-temperature characteristics of the lubricant, making the oil's viscosity more stable as its temperature changes. Lubricant Viscosity Index Improvers is made from polymers, which are long and flexible molecules used in the production of lubricant to reduce lubricant viscosity changes at high and low temperatures. When viscosity index improvers are added to low-viscosity oils, they effectively thicken the oil as temperature increases. This means the lubricating effect of mineral oils can be extended across a wider temperature range.
The whole lubricant viscosity index improvers market is mainly dominated by several suppliers, like Lubrizol, Chevron Oronite, Infineum, Afton Chemical. These manufacturers have mature technology and strong supply chain management, making them owning a certain market share globally.
lubricant viscosity index improvers improve the viscosity-temperature characteristics of the lubricant, making the oil's viscosity more stable as its temperature changes. key market drivers of lubricant viscosity index improvers as follows:
Growing Automotive Sector: The demand for high-performance lubricants in the automotive industry is a major driver, as modern engines require lubricants that maintain performance under extreme conditions. This increases the need for viscosity index improvers to enhance temperature stability.
