"Esters segment is projected to be the fastest growing type of synthetic lubricants, in terms of value, during the forecast period."
Ester oils have a high resistance to thermal breakdown, making them suitable for use in applications where high temperatures are encountered. They maintain their lubricating properties even at elevated temperatures, reducing the risk of oil degradation and ensuring consistent performance. Because of their exceptional oxidation resistance, ester oils help keep varnish and sludge deposits in the lubricating system from forming. This prolongs the life of the lubricant and the components it lubricates, improving equipment reliability.
"Compressor Oils segment to be the fastest growing product type for synthetic lubricants market, in terms of value, during the forecast period"
Synthetic lubricants are widely used in various types of compressors across different industries due to their superior performance and properties. Rotating screw compressors, which are frequently found in industrial settings for uses including air compression in manufacturing plants, pneumatic tools, and process air systems, frequently use synthetic lubricants. Excellent lubrication, thermal stability, and oxidation resistance are provided by synthetic compressor lubricants, which contribute to the compressor's extended service life and continued effective operation.
"Asia Pacific was the largest synthetic lubricants market in 2022, in terms of value."
The Asia Pacific region is undergoing rapid industrialization and urbanization, driving demand for machinery, vehicles, and equipment that require high-performance lubricants. As industries expand and modernize, there is a growing need for synthetic lubricants to ensure efficient operation and extended equipment life. With rising car sales and manufacturing, the Asia Pacific automotive sector is flourishing. Automotive engines, transmissions, and drivetrains frequently employ synthetic lubricants because they offer the best resistance to heat, friction, and wear. Synthetic lubricants are becoming more widely used as consumers seek greater engine performance and fuel efficiency.
