Lubricant Market Market Scope
Lubricant is used to reduce the friction between two surfaces and in the machinery it is used to reduce wear and tear of particular parts. It is also useful to maintain temperature and minimize the changes of corrosion and rust of metal surface. Lubricant can be natural, synthetic and semi-synthetic in nature, mostly derived from the oils. The industrial user selects the lubricants according to the lubrication they want such as full film lubrication, boundary lubrication, mixed lubrication. Engineering sector is continuously growing along with that automotive industry show high demand, these two industry used high amount of lubricants; over forecast period there is high drive for lubricant market
