Process oil is a type of mineral oil refined from crude petroleum used in various industrial and commercial processes, such as rubber compounding and plastic processing. Process oils are characterized by their physical properties, which include viscosity, volatility, solvency, lubricity, and color. Process oils help reduce friction between components to ensure the safety of employees working in factories and plants. They can act as protective coatings on metal surfaces against corrosion or wear and tear. Process oil is a key component in rubber and plastic manufacturing, with its use increasing exponentially as the automotive industry grows for tire making. There are concerns around oil price fluctuations and the environmental impact of process oils. Increasing demand from end-users such as adhesives manufacturers and industrial sectors is helping propel the growth of process oils. Advancement in the production and quality of process oils as well as an emerging preference for bio-based options are expected to create market growth opportunities.
