Alkylated Naphthalene Market to Observe Strong Development | 2026
According
to a new report published by Transparency Market Research (TMR)
titled ‘Alkylated Naphthalene Market - Global Industry Analysis,
Size, Share, Growth, Trends, and Forecast, 2018–2026,’ the global
alkylated naphthalene market was valued at around US$ 100 Mn in 2017
and is anticipated to expand at a CAGR of around 5% during the
forecast period. Expansion in the global alkylated naphthalene market
is attributed to factors such as increase in demand for alkylated
naphthalene in automotive engine and gear oil applications. Alkylated
naphthalene is used to replace some proportion of synthetic base oil
in the lubricant formulations. It provides superior thermal and
thermo-oxidative stability of the lubricant formulation. This
improves the overall shelf life and performance of lubricants. The
alkylated naphthalene market in Asia Pacific is expanding at a
significant pace due to the increase in demand for alkylated
naphthalene in automotive engine and gear oil applications.

Report Overview @
Increase
in Automobile Sales to Drive Alkylated Naphthalene Market
The
automotive sector is a major consumer of lubricants. Furthermore,
usage of lubricants is imperative in the automotive sector, which
increases dependence on lubricants and alkylated naphthalene. Rapid
growth in population and rise in disposable income have propelled the
demand for passenger and commercial vehicles. The global sales of
cars and commercial vehicles stood at 96.8 million units in 2017.
This increase in the sales of cars is augmenting the demand for
finished lubricants and alkylated naphthalene. Increase in disposable
income and easy finance options have made the purchase of cars easy
for the common man. Lubricants are imperative for the smooth
functioning of vehicles. This, in turn, fuels the demand for
lubricants.
Several
economic factors such as over-production of crude oil, slowdown in
the demand for oil from China, changes in energy portfolios of
countries lead to fluctuations in oil prices. Crude oil is an
indirect raw material employed in the production of alkylated
naphthalene, the price fluctuations in crude oil reflect that of
alkylated naphthalene. These factors have created volatility in
alkylated naphthalene prices and demand for alkylated naphthalene.
Volatility of raw material prices restraining the production of and
demand for alkylated naphthalene.
Standard
Grade to Dominate the Alkylated Naphthalene Market
In
terms of grade, the global alkylated naphthalene market has been
bifurcated into standard and food grade. The standard grade segment
is anticipated to dominate the market due to its excellent cost to
performance ratio. Additionally, extensive use of standard grade
alkylated naphthalene in applications such as automotive engine and
gear oils is anticipated to drive the market in the near future. The
food grade segment is anticipated to expand at a significant pace
from 2018 to 2026.
22–65
SUS Segment to Dominate the Alkylated Naphthalene Market
Based
on viscosity Index, the global alkylated naphthalene market has been
divided into 22–65 SUS, 65–90 SUS, 90–115 SUS, and above 115
SUS. The 22–65 SUS segment is anticipated to dominate the market
due to the increase in consumption of these alkylated naphthalene in
the automotive applications across the globe. Additionally, this
segment is also anticipated to expand at a significant pace from 2018
to 2026.
Rise
in Usage of Alkylated Naphthalene in Developing Economies to Create
Opportunities
In
terms of region, the global alkylated naphthalene market has been
divided into Asia Pacific, Europe, North America, Middle East &
Africa, and Latin America. Rapid urbanization in emerging countries
such as China, India, and Mexico is boosting the demand for new
construction in these countries. This is driving the demand for
concrete admixtures in these countries. In turn, this is propelling
the global alkylated naphthalene market.
