The global demand for Viscosity Index Improvers Market is presumed to reach the valuation of nearly USD XX MN by 2028 from USD XX MN in 2021 with a CAGR of XX% during the period of 2022-2028.
Viscosity Index Improvers are polymeric materials which are used in lubricant oils to improve its viscosity over a wide range of temperatures. The viscosity index determines the friction between the contacting bodies and hence the energy efficiency of the machine. A good improver reduces the fuel consumption, extends service life and cranking of engines. They are used in industrial lubricants like hydraulic fluids, engine oils, gear oils and transmission fluids.
Market Dynamics
Rapid industrialization will be the major driving force for the growth of the viscosity index improvers market. The rise in disposable income and an increase in purchasing power of the global population will enable the growth of this additive in the automotive industry. The need for better fuel efficiency and the use of lubricants in the energy sector will boost demand. The growing demand for reduced emissions will propel more research activities in the use of these lubricants. Reduced industrial activities during the COVID-19 lockdown will see a major downward trend of the global viscosity index improvers market. The major constraint for the growth of this market is the susceptibility of these additives to mechanical shearing and the invention of electric vehicles.
