Anti-Wear Additives Market: Current Analysis and Forecast (2022-2028)

Report Description

The global Anti-Wear Additives Market is expected to grow at a significant rate of around 3% during the forecast period. Anti-Wear Additives are lubricants that react with the metal surface at elevated temperature and pressure ambiance by forming a protective shield between metal surface which prevent metal surfaces from wearing under the boundary of lubrication condition. Anti-wear additives chemically react with the surface to form a low-shear-strength coating.

In addition, anti-wear additives are generally used under mild conditions of low loads and high speeds to reduce the rate of continuous and moderate wear. The additive helps coat the application surface to protect the metal from wear over time. Factors such as surging demand for anti-wear additives across various end-user industries, especially automotive industries propelling the market for anti-wear additives. Increasing automotive production with a growing fleet of vehicles is fueling the market growth, owing to its extensive consumption of gearboxes for the protection of its metal surfaces. Also, growing automotive production coupled with an increasing fleet of vehicles is the key factor in driving the market of anti-wear additives.

Chemtura Corporation, Evonik, Lubrizol, Infineum, Chevron Oronite, Vanderbilt Chemicals, Tianhe Chemicals Group, Afton Chemical Corporation, BASF, and Croda International are some of the key players operating in the market.

Insights Presented in the Report

“Amongst type, ZDDP category to witness robust CAGR during the forecast period”

Based on the type,  the anti-wear additives market is classified into ZDDP, phosphorus, and others. The ZDDP segment caters substantial share of the market. Zinc dialkyl dithiophosphates (ZDDPs) are very effective antiwear agents that are used as machine lubricants (e.g., greases, hydraulic oils, and motor oils), including applications in the automotive industry. Moreover, ZDDP is the most commonly used anti-wear additive. That prevents oxidation and corrosion, driving the growth of this segment.

“Amongst application, engine oil segment held a significant share in the market in 2020”

Based on application, the anti-wear additives market is segmented into the engine oil, hydraulic oil, metalworking fluid, and others. The engine oil segment caters considerable share of the market. Engine oils are made of a composition of additives and base oils. Anti-wear additives are used on a large scale for maintaining viscosity, thereby reducing engine friction and wear. It helps keep the engine cool over long working durations, prevents corrosion, increases fuel efficiency, and reduces carbon emissions.

“Asia Pacific is expected to grow with substantial CAGR over the forecast period”

Asia Pacific is anticipated to grow at a substantial CAGR during the forecast period. This is mainly attributed to the increase in demand for anti-wear additives in diverse end-use industries such as industrial, mining, and construction industries. Demand for high-performance anti-wear agents and advancements in technologies are expected to support the growth of the market during the forecast period.
