Market by Product Type, End-user, and Geography | Forecast 2022-2028
Viscosity index improvers (VIIs) are polymers that are the key ingredients in many lubricating oils. Viscosity modifiers or improvers are used to improve temperature performance, cleanliness, and efficiency by offering durability and protecting equipment from severe wear.
The global viscosity index improvers market was valued at $3978.35 million in 2021, and is expected to reach $4913.98 million by 2028, growing at a CAGR of 3.01% during the forecast period 2022-2028.
Triton’s report on the
viscosity index improvers market provides an in-depth insight into the industry.
The detailed analysis of the market includes the impact of COVID-19 on viscosity
index improvers; key insights, Porter’s five forces analysis, vendor scorecard,
and market attractiveness index.
A rise in the demand
for lubricants, coupled with a growth in automotive production in the Asia-Pacific
and Europe regions, is the key factor driving the market’s growth. Engine oil
specifications for vehicles are undergoing consistent developments, and are thus
augmenting the need for newer lubricant formulations. The increasing emission
regulations for lubricants in the automotive and industrial sectors are
expected to drive the market for lubricant additives over the forecast period.
Other than the market drivers,
there is industrial growth in the Middle East and Africa, and therefore, the region
is attracting investments by leading players, which is expected to offer
lucrative growth opportunities. Furthermore, the increasing consumption of
engine oils is further anticipated to enable the market to grow in terms of
revenue.
However, with the emergence of high-performance and long-lasting lubricants, the oil change interval has extended almost by 100%. Thus, the consumption of lubricants and engine oils, and, in turn, viscosity index improvers, is decreasing.
