In addition, the growing demand for synthetic lubricants from various end-use industries, such as automotive oil and gas, is positively influencing the growth of the market. PAOs are used to maintain seals, avoid component failure, and extend drain intervals as metal working fluids, compressor oils, engine oils, heat transfer fluids, transmission oils, and gear oils. These are some of the factors invigorating the growth of the overall market.

North America is Projected to Hold a Prominent Share in the Overall Growth of the Market

Region wise, North America is anticipated to hold a significant share in the overall market growth of poly alpha olefin (PAO). The shale gas boom, particularly in the United States, has instilled fresh confidence in petrochemical companies and influenced ethylene output in the region, which is a vital raw ingredient for PAO production, which has been pushing the growth of the market. In addition to this, The Blue Angel Scheme and The White Swan Scheme, both of which encourage biodegradable base oils, are expected to propel the area sector forward and gather a significant market base. Apart from this,  the Asia Pacific region is also expected to increase at a significant rate throughout the projected period owing to the rising demand for automotive lubricants in the region.

Applications of Poly Alpha Olefin in Engine Oil has Been Promoting the Growth of the Market

Based on application, the engine oil segment has been a major application of poly alpha olefin, due to its ability to lubricate at both ends of the temperature spectrum and for its ability to flow more quickly at cold temperatures while resisting oil consumption, viscosity breakdown, sludging, and oxidation at high temperatures. Due to a higher degree of hydrolytic stability and demulsibility, a higher viscosity index (VI), and a lower pour point, gear oil is expected to grow rapidly over the projection period and hence propel the market.
