Calcium Sulphonate to Generate Highest Revenue in 300–450 TBN Calcium, Barium, and Magnesium Sulphonates Market till 2030

From $73.5 million in 2019, the 300–450 TBN calcium, barium, and magnesium Sulphonates market is projected to grow to $231.2 million by 2030, witnessing a CAGR of 10.9% during the forecast period (2020–2030). The major factors driving the consumption of these chemicals are their minimal environmental impact and the advantageous properties of greases based on calcium sulphonate.

Structural Analysis of 300–450 TBN Calcium, Barium, and Magnesium Sulphonates Market

Till 2030, calcium sulphonate would continue holding the largest revenue share in the 300–450 TBN calcium, barium, and magnesium sulphonates market, on the basis of type, owing to its ability to offer rust resistance to industrial lubricants, hydraulic fluids, and circulating oils. Additionally, it also displays demulsibility, wet filterability, and hydrolytic stability, which further drives its demand. Further, the salt also provides stability under extreme pressure, better thickening ability, high load-bearing ability, and corrosion resistance to greases.

During the historical period (2014–2019), lubes & greases was the largest revenue-generating category, under the application segment. This is because calcium sulphonate is widely used as a thickener in certain types of lubricants, which produce semi-solid structures. During the forecast period, this category is projected to observe the fastest growth, in terms of revenue, as well, mainly due to the expansion of the manufacturing sector in numerous developing countries.

The automotive division, based on end use, is expected to exhibited the highest value CAGR in the 300–450 TBN calcium, barium, and magnesium sulphonates market during the forecast period. This is owing to the heavy usage of these chemicals as thickeners in lubricants and greases, which are themselves heavily applied on automobile window gears, ball bearings, and electric motor bearings.

In 2019, Asia-Pacific (APAC) accounted for the highest revenue in the market, as rapid economic growth and urbanization in regional countries, especially China and India, are helping in the growth of the industries where products containing the sulphonates of magnesium, barium, and calcium are consumed in heavy amounts. The key factors which drives the demand for these chemicals are their corrosion resistance and oxidation protection.

Shift from Lithium Sulphonate to Calcium Sulphonate Trending in Market

The most significant trend in the 300–450 TBN calcium, barium, and magnesium sulphonates market is the rising preference for calcium sulphonate over lithium sulphonate, in grease-based products, such as industrial and automobile lubricants. Due to its high shear and mechanical stability, dropping point, and wear, temperature, oxidation, and water resistance, the latter is widely being used as a thickener in lubricants. Earlier, the marine, mining, automotive, steel, and manufacturing sectors used lithium sulphonate, as it is highly pumpable and cost-effective. But, with government initiatives, in the wake of environmental damage, calcium sulphonate is witnessing an increasing demand. Additionally, the easy availability of the raw materials for producing calcium sulphonate makes it cost-cometitive with lithium sulphonate, which is another reason for the surging demand for the former.
