Observation of new materials week: the localization of lubricating oil additives has started, and the four major factories have come to China to expand the demand for single agent
Lubricating oil additive is an indispensable functional component in the production of lubricating materials. The mass proportion of lubricating oil is 2% - 30%, which is widely used in motor vehicles, metalworking fluids and industrial engines. Shanghai lubricating oil industry association predicts that the market demand for lubricating oil additives in China will continue to grow steadily. In 2023, the demand for lubricating oil additives in China will reach 1.12 million tons, accounting for about 20.63% of the global market in the same period. From the international perspective, the industry is highly concentrated. Lubrizol, Infineum, Chevron oronite and Afton have long occupied 85% of the global market share. In China's lubricant additive industry, Xinxiang Richful Lube Additive Co.Ltd(300910) , Kangtai Co., Ltd., Wuxi Nanfang and other enterprises belong to the first tier enterprises. Lubrizol, runyinglian and Chevron olennaise, the four major international lubricant additive companies, have established production bases in China one after another. Their end products are mainly composite agents, and their production lines are mainly composite agent production lines, which need a large number of single agents as production raw materials. According to the statistics of China lubricating oil network, the capacity of Lubrizol, runyinglian and Chevron's compound agent production lines in China is 175000 tons, 100000 tons and 100000 tons respectively, totaling 375000 tons; Lubrizol's single agent capacity is 71200 tons, and Lubrizol Yinglian and Chevron have not built a single agent production line yet. The compound agent is made by physical blending of single agent. Calculated by 1:1, the demand gap of single agent corresponding to the production capacity of Lubrizol, runyinglian and Chevron compound agent is about 300000 tons. The phase II expansion project of runyinglian in Zhangjiagang was officially launched in 2020, which will further expand the single agent demand of the four major manufacturers in the Chinese market. In the long run, the improvement of the localization rate of compound agents in the future will bring greater growth space for domestic enterprises. Beneficiary objects: Rianlon Corporation(300596) , Xinxiang Richful Lube Additive Co.Ltd(300910) , etc.
