The rising demand for lubricants is also another key driver of the viscosity index improvers market for automotive. Lubricants prevent wear & tear of equipment and parts by reducing friction between two surfaces. Moreover, they increase the operating efficiency of an equipment by reducing unnecessary energy loss due to friction. Lubricants in automobiles have to work over a wide range of temperatures, which can drastically impact their viscosity and lubricating capabilities, resulting in lower effectiveness and efficiency. However, viscosity index improvers reduce this viscosity change with temperature, thereby enhancing lubricant performance across different temperatures.

Asia Pacific a Prominent Viscosity Index Improvers Market for Automotive

Asia Pacific was the dominant region of the global viscosity index improvers market for automotive in 2018. It led the global viscosity index improvers market for automotive in 2018, primarily due to the rise in the demand for automobiles. The viscosity index improvers market for automotive in the region is expected to rise at a rapid pace during the forecast period.

Rising disposable income and easy finance options in Asia Pacific, especially in developing economies, are driving the demand for automobiles, and, in turn, viscosity index improvers in the automotive space.
