Diesel Lubricity Improver Market is Segmented as below. Particular segment of your interest can be provided without any additional cost. Download the Sample Pages!
The Diesel Lubricity Improver (DLI) market plays a critical role in ensuring the efficient performance and longevity of diesel engines. Diesel lubricity improvers are chemical additives designed to enhance the lubricating properties of diesel fuel, particularly in ultra-low sulfur diesel (ULSD), which has reduced natural lubricating qualities due to sulfur removal during refining. The demand for DLIs is driven by stringent environmental regulations mandating cleaner fuel production, rising awareness about fuel efficiency, and the need to minimize engine wear and tear. The market is characterized by advancements in additive technologies and diverse formulations tailored for various diesel grades. Key sectors driving growth include transportation, power generation, and industrial machinery. However, the market faces challenges such as fluctuating crude oil prices, the increasing adoption of alternative fuels, and the growing prominence of electric vehicles. Despite these hurdles, ongoing research and development, coupled with emerging markets in developing regions, are expected to sustain demand for DLIs in the coming years.
In February 2021, Infineum International Ltd. announced the development of a new lubricity improver technology called HiTEC 3434, which is designed to improve the performance of diesel engines that use biofuels. The product is aimed at meeting the demand for more sustainable diesel fuels. (Source: https://www.infineuminsight.com/en-gb/articles/lubricity-improver-chemistry-matters/)
Emerging economies, especially in Asia-Pacific, Latin America, and Africa, are experiencing a surge in diesel-powered vehicles due to their cost-efficiency, durability, and fuel efficiency. These regions rely heavily on diesel engines for transportation, agriculture, and industrial applications. However, varying fuel qualities in these markets often result in lower lubricity, leading to significant wear and tear on engines. Diesel lubricity improvers are increasingly used to address this challenge by enhancing fuel properties, reducing maintenance costs, and extending engine life. The rising consumer demand for fuel-efficient and reliable diesel vehicles, coupled with increasing awareness of the benefits of fuel additives, is driving the adoption of these improvers. Furthermore, economic growth and infrastructure development in emerging markets are expected to sustain the demand for diesel engines, creating a strong growth trajectory for the lubricity improver segment over the coming years. For instance, BASF SE completes the expansion of its production capacity for lubricant oil additives, including lubricity improvers, at its site in China. The expansion includes a new production line that would allow BASF to meet the surge in demand for lubricity improvers in Asia Pacific.

Governments and regulatory bodies worldwide are enforcing stricter fuel quality standards to reduce harmful emissions and environmental impact. Diesel fuels with low sulfur content, mandated by regulations like the Euro 6 standards in Europe and Tier 3 in the United States, tend to lack adequate lubricity. The removal of sulfur during refining, which improves emission profiles, also eliminates natural lubricants. This creates a significant need for diesel lubricity improvers to enhance fuel performance and prevent engine wear. Lubricity improvers are essential in mitigating the adverse effects of low-sulfur fuels, including pump and injector damage in diesel engines. The rising adoption of ultra-low-sulfur diesel (ULSD) fuels in regions like Europe, North America, and parts of Asia-Pacific is a major driver for the market. Additionally, global efforts to combat climate change and meet international emission reduction targets have accelerated the demand for additives, further boosting the growth of the diesel lubricity improver market.
The increasing global focus on reducing carbon emissions has led to a significant shift toward alternative fuels and electric vehicles (EVs). Governments worldwide are imposing stricter emission regulations and offering incentives to adopt cleaner technologies. As the market for EVs expands and alternative fuels like biodiesel and hydrogen gain traction, the demand for diesel lubricity improvers is negatively impacted. Additionally, advancements in engine technologies and fuel formulations aim to reduce the reliance on external additives, further restraining market growth. The automotive sector’s shift towards decarbonization is expected to accelerate, posing a long-term challenge for the diesel lubricity improver market.
The COVID-19 pandemic significantly impacted the diesel lubricity improver market due to reduced industrial activities, transportation, and fuel consumption. Lockdowns and travel restrictions led to a sharp decline in diesel demand globally, directly affecting the use of lubricity improvers. Supply chain disruptions further hindered raw material availability and manufacturing processes. The automotive and transportation sectors, major consumers of diesel, faced prolonged shutdowns, slowing market recovery. However, as economies began reopening and industrial activities resumed, the market started recovering gradually. Increased focus on fuel efficiency and stricter emission regulations in the post-pandemic period may provide opportunities for growth.
