Industrial Lubricants Market Statistics and Research Analysis Released in Latest Industry Report 2027


Market Overview

An industrial lubricant is a substance that is used to reduce friction between surfaces that are in mutual contact with each other. It also transmits forces and acts as a coolant between the surfaces. The property of reducing friction is called lubricity. Lubricants contain around 90% base oil (crude oil) and less than 10% additives. Synthetic liquids that include polyolefins, esters, silicones, fluorocarbons, and others are often used as base oil. The additives play an important role in reduction of friction and wear and offer increased viscosity, resistance to corrosion and oxidation, aging or contamination, and others.

Dry industrial lubricants comprise of graphite and molybdenum, amongst others that offers excellent lubrication properties at temperatures of around 350 °C, which is greater than their liquid and oil-based counterparts. This has resulted in increased R&D activities in the field of dry industrial lubricants. For instance, the Technical Standards Development and Application Demonstration Base of Graphene-Modified Lubricant was launched at LiuGong’s global R&D Centre in Liuzhou, in July 2018. It was built by the China Innovation Alliance of the Graphene Industry in association with Guangxi Liugong Machinery.

Market Dynamics

Industrial lubricants play an important role in reduction of wear and tear, and aids in increasing the durability of tools and moving parts, in addition to reduction in the time spent in servicing of the parts. These are some of the major factors that are expected to propel growth of the industrial lubricants market.

However, lubricants both new and recycled ones damage the environment on account of their high potential to cause water pollution. Furthermore, the additives that are present in lubricants are poisonous to the flora and fauna present. The oxidation products in recycled industrial lubricants are extremely harmful. An industrial lubricant’s degradability depends upon the base fluid, however very toxic additives can have a negative effect on the degradability of the industrial lubricants as well.

According to United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), in 2016, around 50% of all lubricants sold worldwide ended up in the environment due to volatility, spills, discharges or accidents. Moreover, around 95 % of these lubricants had a mineral oil base. The high eco-toxicity and low biodegradable nature of mineral oil-based industrial lubricants are a major threat to the environment. Therefore, adoption of these is expected to reduce, in turn negatively affecting growth of the market. Moreover, the high cost of synthetic and bio-based lubricants as they need to be refined to be thinner than conventional industrial lubricants causes lesser wear on the machine part is a major factor that thwarts the growth of the global industrial lubricants market
