Market Definition
Mineral oil is a chemical substance made from naturally occurring crude petroleum oil. Mineral oils are also known as baby oils, base oils, mineral base oils, or lubricant base oils. Mineral oils are transparent, colorless, oily liquids that are tasteless and odorless. They are insoluble in ethanol and water but soluble in petroleum ether, carbon disulfide, benzene, and volatile oils.
Global Mineral Oils Market Dynamics
This section deals with understanding the market drivers, opportunities, challenges, and restrains. All of this is discussed in detail below:
Drivers
- Emerging consumption of mineral oil in personal care and cosmetics products
Mineral oil is relatively cost-effective compared to some alternative ingredients used in personal care and cosmetics. This cost advantage makes it an attractive option for manufacturers looking to create affordable product lines or maintain competitive pricing.
White oil offers several advantages in personal care and cosmetics formulations. It is a versatile ingredient that can be easily incorporated into various product formulations, including creams, lotions, serums, and makeup products.
Mineral oil acts as a lubricant, improving the application of products on the skin. It also helps enhance the stability and shelf life of formulations, preventing ingredient separation and oxidation. The compatibility of mineral oil with a wide range of cosmetic ingredients makes it a popular choice for formulators. It does not clog pores, which further adds to its application in skincare products.
- Rising adoption in pharmaceutical markets
Mineral oil serves as an essential pharmaceutical additive, which refers to inactive ingredients used in the formulation of medications. It is commonly used as a lubricant, binder, emollient, and coating agent in various pharmaceutical products such as tablets, capsules, ointments, and creams. Its inert nature, stability, and compatibility with a wide range of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) make it a preferred choice for formulations in the pharmaceutical industry. The increasing demand for pharmaceutical products, including over-the-counter drugs, prescription medications, and topical treatments, directly contributes to the demand for mineral oil.
Opportunity
- Novel application of mineral oil in advanced battery system manufacturing
The distinctive application of mineral oil in the production of advanced battery systems represents a huge opportunity for the mineral oils market.
Governments around the world are actively funding advanced battery systems, particularly for sectors such as electric vehicles (EVs). This focus is driven by the need to reduce carbon emissions, combat climate change, and transition to more sustainable forms of transportation.
Restraint
- Fluctuation in raw material prices
The primary raw material used in the production of mineral oil is petroleum, which is a naturally occurring hydrocarbon-based fossil fuel. Petroleum is extracted from underground reservoirs through drilling and then undergoes a refining process to obtain mineral oil. The prices of petroleum and its derivatives are subject to fluctuations due to factors such as global oil supply and demand dynamics, geopolitical tensions, natural disasters, and economic conditions. Fluctuations in raw material prices can significantly impact the production cost of mineral oil.
When the prices of petroleum and its derivatives increase, it can lead to higher production costs for mineral oil. It can directly impact the profit margins of mineral oil manufacturers and suppliers. When raw material prices rise, it becomes more expensive to produce mineral oil, potentially squeezing profit margins unless the increased costs can be passed on to customers through higher product prices.
Challenge
- Stringent regulations associated with paraffin applications in industries
The restrictions imposed on paraffin could have significant consequences on the global mineral oils market since it acts as one of the most dominating class in the global mineral oils market. This is because of its possible environmental and health effects. Paraffin, a component often found in mineral oils, has come under stringent regulations. Stricter restrictions on the use and management of paraffin in many industries are being implemented as regulatory authorities place a greater emphasis on sustainability and safety.
Recent Development
- According to Wiley, mineral oil has been shown to improve skin softness and barrier function better than some other emollients. Its introduction as a cosmetic oil was in the late 1800s, and still today, it is used as one of the main components of moisturizers, a true testament to its cost to efficacy window. Naturally, it has physical effects on the skin.
