Description
Graphite is one of the most common forms of carbon. Graphite with or without other chemicals or materials used for lubrication is commonly termed as graphite lubricants, which come under dry lubricant or solid lubricant. Although being in the solid phase, dry lubricants or solid lubricants are materials that reduce friction between two surfaces sliding against each other without the need for any liquid medium. Graphite lubricants provide effective dry lubrication that is they work without the need for a liquid carrier. This property makes them desirable in applications where conventional liquid lubricants may not be suitable, such as high-temperature environments, vacuum conditions, or in the presence of reactive chemicals. Thus, the excellent dry lubricant property is driving the graphite lubricant market growth. However, the high cost of solid lubricants may impede the graphite lubricant market growth. The Graphite Lubricant Market is estimated to grow at a rate of 4.2% CAGR by 2028.
The Graphite Lubricant Market is based on Type:
•    Solution
•    Pure powder
•    Composites
The Graphite Lubricant Market is based on End-user:
•    Transportation
•    Industrial Application
•    Electrical & Electronics
•    Others
The Graphite Lubricant Market is based on Geography:
•    North America
•    Europe
•    Asia Pacific
•    Rest of the World
Based on the type, the pure powder segment is expected to grow at a highest CAGR in the graphite lubricant market over the forecasted period. Graphite powder is utilized in the compressors, food business, roller bearings, rotating gears, greasing locks, piano movements, valves of string instruments, and other applications. It can be utilized to grease industrial equipment and railroad tracks. It is particularly designed for systems which must carry a heavy weight. Mineral oil with a high viscosity blended with graphite powder granules to make lubricating grease. It can be used in the place of lubricating oil. Often oil becomes trapped between the pieces. When ultrafine graphite powder is mixed with grease, it overcomes the problems caused by the usage of oil. When graphite granules are blended with lubricating fluid, lubrication becomes easy and effective.
By end user, the transportation segment is projected to have significant growth in the estimated time period. This is because due to the rising digitization, entry of new market vendors, shifting consumer preferences and progressing business models the transportation industry is undergoing an outstanding transformation. Moreover, the fleet size of the transport industry is presenting major demand for the graphite lubricant.
According to the geography, the Asia Pacific is the global leader in the graphite lubricant market. China and India have an advantage of having the most number of manufacturing and consumption markets, thus providing maximum contribution to the global graphite lubricant market. North America is the second major consumer of global graphite lubricant owing to large automotive and industrial applications in the region. Europe and Middle East & African countries show high growth rate during the forecast period due to the increasing acceptance and industrialization in respective regions.
Globally, there was a growing demand for graphite lubricants in high-temperature applications, such as in the aerospace, automotive, and industrial sectors. The ability of graphite lubricants to perform well at elevated temperatures without breaking down or evaporating made them attractive in these industries and augmented the global graphite lubricant market growth.
The key vendors operating in the graphite lubricant market are Henkel Corporation, Dow Corning, Castrol Limited, Sun Coating Company, OKS Speciality Lubricants, SCCS Industries LLC (DYNACRON), MOSIL Lubricants Pvt Ltd, Metal Coatings Corp, Imerys Graphite & Carbon and Superior Graphite
