Industry Trends and Drivers:

• Rising Demand in Lubricants and Metalworking Fluids:

Naphthenic acid is valued for its excellent corrosion inhibition properties, making it a crucial additive in lubricants and metalworking fluids. As industrial activities are expanding, particularly in manufacturing, automotive, and machinery sectors, the need for effective corrosion-resistant fluids is increasing. Naphthenic acid’s ability to enhance the stability and lifespan of these fluids makes it an essential component, thus driving its demand. Rapid industrialization, especially in emerging economies, is leading to an increase in machinery and equipment use, which, in turn, requires more lubricants and metalworking fluids for maintenance and operation. Naphthenic acid, being a key additive in these products, benefits from this rising demand, thereby impelling its market growth.

• Growth in the Paints and Coatings Industry:

Naphthenic acid is primarily used to produce metallic naphthenates, which serve as driers or catalysts in paints and coatings. These naphthenates accelerate the drying process of paints, helping them form a hard, durable film more quickly. The expanding paints and coatings industry, driven by increasing construction activities, automotive production, and infrastructure projects, is catalyzing the demand for these driers, thereby bolstering the market growth. The construction industry is a major consumer of paints and coatings, especially for residential, commercial, and industrial buildings. As global urbanization and construction activities are increasing, particularly in developing regions, the demand for high-performance paints and coatings is rising. Naphthenic acid, being a key ingredient in the production of these coatings, experiences increased demand alongside the industry’s growth.

• Increasing Use in Wood Preservatives:

Naphthenic acid is used in wood preservatives because of its effective fungicidal and insecticidal properties. It helps protect wood from decay, fungi, and insect infestations, which are common issues in outdoor and construction-grade wood. As the demand for durable, long-lasting wood products is growing, particularly in the construction and furniture industries, the use of wood preservatives containing naphthenic acid is increasing. The construction industry is a major consumer of treated wood, especially in applications like decking, fencing, and structural components. As global construction activities are expanding, particularly in residential and commercial sectors, the demand for treated wood is also rising. This, in turn, is driving the demand for wood preservatives.
