Automotive Dry Film Lubricants Market: Introduction
- Dry film lubricants reduce friction between two sliding surfaces while functioning at high operating pressure and temperature without the need for oils and greases. These lubricants offer long-lasting lubrication, protection from corrosion, and resistance to wear & tear. Dry film lubricants can operate at temperatures of up 350 0C in oxidizing environments and up to 1100 0C in non-oxidizing environments. These lubricants are made from materials such as Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), boron nitride, graphite, molybdenum disulfide (MoS2), and tungsten disulfide. Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) is commonly used to make dry film lubricants.

Key Drivers of Automotive Dry Film Lubricants Market
- Developments in the automotive industry are aimed at reducing friction and improving efficiency of various components such as joints, gears, and linkages in vehicles, which in turn is anticipated to propel the automotive dry film lubricants market. For instance, molybdenum disulfide can offer a low coefficient of friction of up to 0.05, and it is thermally stable in an oxidizing environment. Therefore, Molybdenum-di-Sulfide (MoS2) is ideal for high-pressure applications such as hydraulics, gears, fasteners, acme screws, threaded joints, and anchor bolts. Furthermore, MoS2 is often utilized in various automobile systems such as constant-velocity joint, steering linkage, wheel bearing, pedal shafts, ball joints, and control arms.
- Dry film lubricants are extensively employed in automobile and manufacturing industries. For instance, graphite-based dry film lubricants are used in ball bearings, railway track joints, brass instrument valves, gearboxes, transmission components, etc.
- Government subsidies and policies in various countries across the world have propelled industrial growth, which in turn is expected to propel the automotive dry film lubricant market. For instance, major manufacturers have started establishing production bases in India, led by initiatives such as ‘Make in India’ by the Government of India. This has resulted in rapid industrialization, thereby boosting the demand for dry film lubricants in various heavy industries and the automobile sector. However, regulations imposed on perfluorooctanoic acid and perfluorooctane sulfonate, which are used in emulsion polymerization of polytetrafluoroethylene, are estimated to hamper the automotive dry film lubricants market.
- Disruptions in supply chain catering to the automobile industry, owing to shutdown of production and manufacturing facilities and raw material shortage caused by the coronavirus pandemic across the world, is estimated to contract the market in 2020. Consequently, the coronavirus pandemic has hampered the global automotive dry film lubricants market. The market is anticipated to recover by increasing production volume of vehicle components as well as vehicle production in 2021. This, in turn, is projected to offer lucrative opportunity to players operating in the supply chain of the automotive dry film lubricants market during the forecast period.
