How demand for Efficient Lubricants Solutions in various industries bolstering the Business Growth?

Heavy machinery, electrical equipment, construction equipment and other capital equipment require timely maintenance for efficient operations. Lubrication is one of the key factor when it comes to MRO activities. These heavy machineries operates in extreme conditions incessantly round the clock to facilitate variety of operations.

With the exposure to high temperature and excessive pressure these heavy machines are exposed to wear & tear . In order to avoid these wear and tear, heavy machinery operators are using effective lubricants solution in order to reduce the down time and maintain productivity.

Lube manufacturers are focusing on imparting special properties such as high viscosity range, long lasting operating life and expanded operating range of temperature & pressure in their typical specialized lube formulation.

Use of thioesters as an additive antioxidant are especially utilized to impart above said properties to the lubricating solutions which further fuels the demand for thioesters across the industries

How thioester substitutes are impacting the market?

One of the key restraints hampering business growth is the availability of alternative antioxidant available for rubber processing.

According to the market figures, rubber processing is the predominant application where thioesters are consumed at a large scale - it almost accounts for 53% of the overall rubber processing chemical consumption.

But several alternatives, like, hindered phenols, phosphites and amines are available in the commercial market. This is expected to act as a tumbling block in the growth of the thioesters market.

Presence of several market participants engaged in the production of alternative antioxidants can reap high operational profits and benefits.

In the market place the intensity of market players of phenolic, amine and phospite type antioxidants is relatively high, this further supports their penetration in the commercial market at a very large scale.

Also, shifting inclination towards the adoption of natural based antioxidants is further inhibits the market growth.
