[Informe de investigación] El tamaño del mercado de aditivos para grasas se valoró en 481,80 millones de dólares en 2022 y se prevé que alcance los 627,93 millones de dólares en 2028; se estima que crecerá a una tasa compuesta anual del 4,5 % entre 2022 y 2028.
Los aditivos de grasa son sustancias químicas orgánicas o inorgánicas que se disuelven o suspenden en el aceite en forma sólida. Un aumento en las ventas de automóviles de pasajeros y vehículos comerciales está impulsando el mercado de aditivos para grasas. Los aditivos de grasa se utilizan en grasas que se utilizan como lubricantes para mejorar el rendimiento de los equipos y extender su vida útil.
Las grasas industriales constituyen principalmente aceite base, espesantes y aditivos; Los aditivos son el segundo componente más importante después del aceite base. En la fabricación de grasas se utilizan tres tipos de aceites base: aceite mineral, aceite vegetal y aceite sintético. Las grasas sintéticas se fabrican utilizando aceites sintéticos como la polialfaolefina. Son muy utilizados en el sector industrial, especialmente en la industria del automóvil. Sus características superiores, su capacidad para inducir consistencia operativa y sus costos asequibles los convierten en una categoría preferida de lubricantes. Las grasas sintéticas se utilizan en aplicaciones que involucran temperaturas, cargas y velocidades extremas. Los aditivos de grasas sintéticas mejoran las propiedades físicas y químicas al aumentar el índice de viscosidad, reducir la volatilidad y reducir el punto de fluidez de los lubricantes. Los mejoradores del índice de viscosidad, los depresores del punto de fluidez, los dispersantes y los detergentes son algunas de las categorías de aditivos más utilizadas. Con la creciente demanda de grasas sintéticas, es probable que la necesidad de aditivos para estas grasas aumente durante el período de pronóstico.
Varios actores importantes del mercado están desarrollando aditivos para grasas sintéticas para mejorar su eficiencia. Por ejemplo, en septiembre de 2022, Clariant lanzó aditivos antidesgaste/de presión extrema, mejoradores de lubricidad, inhibidores de corrosión, agentes neutralizantes y formulaciones guías para fluidos metalúrgicos totalmente sintéticos que aumentan la eficiencia de las máquinas. Por lo tanto, con la creciente demanda de grasa sintética, los aditivos utilizados en estas grasas están trayendo nuevas tendencias al mercado de aditivos para grasas.
En 2022, Asia Pacífico tuvo la mayor participación en el mercado de aditivos para grasas y se estima que registre la CAGR más alta durante el período de pronóstico. Europa es otra región atractiva y tiene una participación destacada en el mercado. La creciente instalación de plantas de energía eólica terrestres y marinas y la creciente escala de fabricación de automóviles contribuyen al crecimiento del mercado de aditivos para grasas en Europa. Suecia, Finlandia, Alemania y Francia están experimentando un aumento destacado en la instalación de turbinas eólicas, junto con la creciente demanda de energía renovable. Según WindEurope VZW/ASBL, Europa registró 19,1 GW de nuevas instalaciones eólicas en 2022, incluidos ~16,7 GW en tierra y 2,5 GW en alta mar. La grasa se utiliza para mejorar el rendimiento de las turbinas eólicas, ya que ayuda a resistir la corrosión, el calor, la intemperie y las llamas.

Impacto de la pandemia de COVID-19 en los aditivos de grasa Mercado
La pandemia de COVID-19 afectó a las economías e industrias de varios países del mundo. Bloqueos, restricciones de viaje y cierres de negocios en América del Norte, Europa, Asia Pacífico (APAC), Sur y Asia. Centroamérica y Medio Oriente y Asia. África (MEA) obstaculizó el crecimiento de varias industrias, incluidas la automotriz, la construcción, la aeroespacial y la minería. El cierre de unidades de fabricación perturbó las cadenas de suministro globales, las actividades de fabricación, los cronogramas de entrega y las ventas de productos esenciales y no esenciales. Varias empresas presenciaron retrasos en las entregas de productos y una caída en las ventas de sus productos en 2020. Además, las prohibiciones impuestas por los gobiernos de diferentes países de Europa, Asia Pacífico y América del Norte a los viajes internacionales obligaron a las empresas a interrumpir temporalmente sus planes de colaboración y asociación. . Todos estos factores obstaculizaron varias industrias en 2020 y principios de 2021, restringiendo así el crecimiento de múltiples mercados, incluido el mercado de aditivos para grasas.
Durante la fase inicial de la pandemia de COVID-19, la implementación de restricciones de bloqueo y el cierre de unidades de fabricación provocaron un déficit de producción, creando una brecha entre la oferta y la demanda. Estos factores obstaculizaron la rentabilidad de varios fabricantes de aditivos para grasas a pequeña y gran escala. En 2021, varias economías reanudaron sus operaciones cuando los gobiernos de varios países anunciaron flexibilizaciones en las restricciones impuestas anteriormente, lo que impulsó el mercado global. A los fabricantes se les permitió operar a plena capacidad, lo que les ayudó a superar la brecha de oferta y demanda y otras repercusiones. La creciente demanda de maquinaria industrial y para automóviles después de la pandemia de COVID-19 ha estado generando demanda de aditivos para grasas.
