Soaring Demand for Lubricants Strengthening 300–450 TBN Calcium, Barium, and Magnesium Sulphonates Market Growth

The 300–450 TBN calcium, barium, and magnesium sulphonates market is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 10.9% during the forecast period (2020–2030), due to the increasing preference of lubricant producers for calcium sulphonate over lithium sulphonate. Additionally, the beneficial properties of calcium sulphonate greases will also help the market revenue to surge from $73.5 million in 2019 to $231.2 million in 2030. At present, the key players in the market are focusing on mergers and acquisitions and partnerships to expand their product portfolio and geographical reach.

The market is currently driven by the surging preference of lubricant manufacturers for calcium sulphonate over lithium sulphonate for grease production, owing to the implementation of numerous environmental protection legislations. The increasing use of calcium sulphonate as a thickener in grease-based products, such as automobile and industrial lubricants can be credited to its high mechanical and shear strength and dropping point. Moreover, the exceptional resistance of the salt to oxidation, temperature, wear, and water also makes it ideal for being used as a thickener in lubricants.

Globally, Asia-Pacific (APAC) is expected to hold the largest share in the 300–450 TBN calcium, barium, and magnesium sulphonates market throughout the forecast period. This will be due to the burgeoning demand for passenger cars and commercial vehicles in the region. The turbocharged direct-injection engines being deployed in passenger cars require greases and lubricants with strong additives, such as calcium sulphonate. Moreover, the rapid economic progress of India and China and the booming industrial sector will also augment the demand for calcium, magnesium, and barium sulphonates in the region in the coming years.

Thus, the increasing use of calcium sulphonate in grease production will augment the market growth in the foreseeable future.
