Petroleum Additives Market Size - Global Industry Share, Analysis, Trends and Forecast 2022 - 2030
The Global Petroleum Additives Market Size was valued at USD 5,681 Million in 2021 and is predicted to be worth USD 8,836 Million by 2030, with a CAGR of 5.2% from 2022 to 2030.
Additives are the chemical compounds which are added to any material to enhance the quality or performance. Petroleum additives are chemical compounds that improve the performance of petroleum oil. Generally additives are added upto 5% by weight of the petroleum oil. Petroleum additives includes chemical breakdown control additives, viscosity & lubricity modifiers, contaminant control additives, antioxidants, stabilizers and anti-knock agents, fuel dye & performance enhancing additives, and others.
During last few years there is a significant increase in the demand for the petroleum products which has gained the attention of various companies. A number of companies are involved in introduce new additives which will improve the quality of the fuel. Now-a-days, nearly all the commercial motor oils contain additives, whether it is synthetic or petroleum based oil. Increasing environmental issues has increased demand for the natural petroleum additives. However, the American Petroleum Institute (API) Service SA motor oils have no additives, and they are therefore incapable of protecting modern engines.
