Global Base Oil Market is anticipated to grow considerably in the forecast period owing to the increasing use of lubricants in the end-use industries like automotive and manufacturing. Base oils are essential element for any lubricant. The formulation goes under chemical synthesis or crude oil when heat is applied. During the heating process, heavy or light hydrocarbons are separated. Petrol and other fuels contain light hydrocarbon and base oil is made from heavy hydrocarbons. It is ideal for making gear oil, hydraulic oil, and premium engine oil.
Base oils have application in manufacturing industrial products along with motor oil, lubricating greases and metal processing fluids. They act as foundation of the lubricant, before blending it with a thickener or an additive in case of grease. Base oils are classified by the constituent base material, synthetic, vegetable and mineral. Their characteristics determine their holding capacity against numerous lubrication challenges. Major properties of base oil constitute as the index, pour point, oxidation, thermal stability, volatility, aniline point, and hydrolytic stability.
