Lubricant additives are chemical components or substances that, when applied at a specific amount, perform one or more functions in the fluid. Additives for lubricants are combined with basic oils to create complete lubricants. "Solids" are defined as organic or inorganic substances that have dissolved or been excluded from oil as solids. They can be anything between 0.1 and 30% of the entire oil volume, depending on the equipment. In many different ways, these additives extend the lifespan and increase the output of final lubricants.

Emerging economies in the Asia-Pacific region, which account for approximately 30% of the demand for lubricant additives, are the main market drivers in this sector. Due to the region's price sensitivity, the growing construction, manufacturing, and automotive industries—which are not subject to severe environmental regulations—fuel the demand for lubricant additives of moderate grade. Due to this, Asia-Pacific has become a key global manufacturing and commercial hub where many large corporations are establishing their new factories to compete in fast-growing markets. Manufacturers are drawn to the area for a variety of reasons, including affordable labor and simple access to feedstocks. The market for alternative fuels, such as biofuels, liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), and compressed natural gas (CNG), is driven by environmental restrictions in Europe and North America.

Function Trends

"Dispersants segment accounted for the largest market share."

Based on the function type, the lubricant additives market is segmented into dispersants, VII, detergents, antiwear, antioxidants, corrosion inhibitors, emulsifiers, and others. Dispersants are expected to remain the largest function type in the market during the forecast period. The dispersant is one of the components required to create additive packages for the industrial and automotive markets. It recommends suspending the insoluble impurities in the oil to prevent the formation of sludge. Dispersants are frequently used to prevent deposits on surfaces, such as varnish, sludge, and other types of deposits. Diesel and petrol engine oils, where their use is restricted to engine protection, make up about three-quarters of all usage.

Application Trends

"The automotive segment accounted for the largest market share."

Based on the application type, the market is segmented into automotive and industrial lubricants. Automotive is expected to remain the dominant as well as the faster-growing application in the market during the forecast period. While the industrial application is anticipated to experience a significant growth rate throughout the projected period, the automotive segment is expected to continue to hold the majority of the market share. In 2022, passenger car motor oil dominated the market, and this dominance is anticipated to continue during the forecast period. The requirement for passenger car motor oil is driven by EURO norms, which control the levels of nitrogen oxide, carbon monoxide, soot, and hydrocarbons associated with customer decisions to use fuel that is low in thickness and operationally efficient.

Regional Insights

"Asia-Pacific accounted for the largest market share."

In terms of regions, Asia-Pacific is expected to remain the largest market for lubricant additives during the forecast period. This is supported by the region's substantial customer base and important player presence. The region's expanding industrialization and economic development have enabled greater vehicle production and ownership, which has increased the demand for lubricant additives in the area.
