The global pour point depressant market is expected to witness significant
demand over the forecast period. The basic ability of a lubricant is to
flow under low-temperature and low shear conditions which is significant to
engine operation& equipment expected to run in cold climates. If the selection
of pour point depressant fails, it may inhibit engine’s performance resulting
out of low-temperature properties. Therefore, selection of right pour point
depressants (PPD) offers a solution to high pour point problems.
On the basis of
chemistry, the global pour point depressant market is segmented into
Polymethacrylate, ethylene-co-vinyl-acetate, alkylaromatic polymers, styrene
esters, oligomerized alkyl phenols, phthalic acid esters and copolymers of
alpha-olefins. From seeing above, all paraffinic mineral oil base stocks
comprise small amounts of waxy materials. So, in decreased temperature of oil,
some of the waxy components exhibit as tiny crystals and the solution begin to
appear hazy to the visibility.
The temperature at which this occurs is termed as cloud
point. Further, as additional wax precipitates crystals grow into plates and
finally if the temperature falls enough, the plates will grow together and form
a three-dimensional network which immobilizes the oil. Hence, the
solidification process is sometimes known as gelation and the lowest
temperature at which the oil becomes fluid is termed as pour point.
From the commercial point of view, the pour point depressants
are broadly used in oil & gas industry to smoothen transportation and
storage of crude oil. Hence, automotive industry is expected to contribute more
in the global pour point depressants market. Therefore, the global market of
pour point depressants is expected to grow at a higher CAGR during the forecast
period.

The key driving factors responsible for the growth of pour
point depressant market includes competitive margin over other substitutes such
as fuel lubricity, reduced viscosity and performance enhancement of flow of
crude oil. Growth of automobile industry is one of the major factors
responsible for the growth of global pour point depressant market and the
rising demand of engine oils, power transmission fluids, tractor fluids which
in turn is anticipated to propel the market growth. Moreover, growing refining
capacity across the world and rapid industrialization are some other factors
driving the global pour point depressant market.
However, biodiesel modification is likely to impede the
market growth coupled with nanoparticles being a potential alternative for pour
point depressant. Also, the economic crisis particularly in China is
anticipated to be a major hindrance for the growth of global pour point
depressants market. On the basis of end-user application, the global pour point
depressant market is segmented as oil and gas industries, marine industries,
lubricant industries, automotive industry and chemicals. Automotive industry is
the faster growing segment in Asia Pacific and North America owing to
proliferated use for improving machine oil or engine performance in order that
the oil has improved viscosity. The prime areas of application in automobiles
are gear oils, engine oils, driveline fluids, hydraulic fluids & brake
oils.
On the basis of geographic segmentation, the global pour
point depressant industry spans North America, Latin America, Western Europe,
Eastern Europe, Middle-East APEJ, Japan and Africa. Asia-Pacific is anticipated
to dominate the global market in terms of value. APEJ regions are expected to
continue domination during the forecast period and China is anticipated to be
the fastest emerging country in the respective domain. South Korea and India
are also expected to contribute towards the growth of pour point depressant
market during the forecast period. The key players mentioned in the global pour
point depressant include Global Partners LLP, BASF SE, Croda International PLC,
Chevron Phillips Chemical Company, Messina Chemicals, Evonik Industries, Royal
Dutch Shell Plc, Clariant Corporation, and The Lubrizol Corporation.
