Friction Modifiers Market by Type (Organic and Inorganic), Application (Transportation Lubricants (Commercial Vehicle, Passenger Vehicle, Aviation, Marine), and Industrial Lubricants), By Region (North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, South America, Middle East & Africa): Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2021–2027.
Friction Modifiers Market
The market for friction modifiers was valued at USD 815.3 million in 2016 and is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 3.6 percent to reach USD 1,004.3 million by 2022. The forecast period runs from 2017 through 2022, with 2016 serving as the study's base year. In order to manage the frictional qualities of lubricants by lowering the coefficient of friction, antifriction additives are lubricant additives that are added to base oil. Less fuel is consumed as a result, improving fuel efficiency. Alcohols, carboxylic acids, fatty acid esters, sulfurized fatty acids, esters & amides, molybdenum compounds, and functional polymers make up antifriction additives. They give the equipment superior lubricity and longer life, which is anticipated to drive the market in between the given forecast period.
