A Decade of Growth Anchored by Dispersants and Automotive Demand:

The shift toward compact engines, low-viscosity oils, and eco-friendly chemistries is redefining lubricant performance. From 2025 to 2030, the market is expected to add USD 3.8 billion, led by dispersants that prevent sludge in high-temperature operations.

Between 2030 and 2035, FMI anticipates another USD 4.6 billion in growth, reflecting widespread adoption of ashless, biodegradable additives and specialized solutions for EV thermal management and battery cooling.

"Dispersants are the backbone of modern lubricant cleanliness, especially in downsized engines and heavy-duty machinery," said an FMI research analyst. "As OEMs push for extended drain intervals and lower emissions, additive innovation is critical to reliability and efficiency."
