Viscosity Reducing Agents Market Definition
Viscosity reducing agents are also well-known as drag reducing agents. These agents are additives in pipelines which reduces the turbulence in a pipe consequently rising the flow of fluids. These agents work as a pipeline booster or a flow improver. Viscosity reducing agents are normally composed high molecular weight polymers.
Viscosity Reducing Agents Market Dynamics
Drivers
- High Usage of Viscosity Reducing Agents in Transportation
Viscosity reducing agents play a vital role to provide an effective and economic way of material transportation over the pipeline linkage in numerous industries. For instance, viscosity reducing agents play a vital role in the petrochemical sector in which transportation of viscous crude oil is carried out with the support of large pipeline networks. This will drive the growth rate of the viscosity reducing agents market during the forecast period.
- Increasing Demand of Viscosity Reducing Agents Due to Their Nature
The viscosity reducing agents are non-polluting and non-toxic in nature due to this it finds their utilization across several industries. These viscosity reducing agents reduce the problem of choking in ducts and pipelines and increase the process efficiency and transportation.
- Growing Usage of Viscosity Reducing Agents for Several Purposes
The principle on which these agents function is that these agents reduce the turbulence in the core and interfere with the bursting process. The polymers absorb the energy in the streak and work as a shock absorber hence reducing the turbulent bursts. Viscosity reducing agents also act as buffers along the pipe wall. These agents are essential and support the operators to upsurge flow in the pipeline. The major factor that drives the growth of the market share comprises the advantages from their use.
Opportunities
- Increasing Usage of Viscosity Reducing Agents in Promoting the Pipeline Integrity
The rising uptake of viscosity reducing agents in promoting the integrity of pipeline by numerous end-use industries, particularly paints and coatings, cement and construction, and oil sectors. Oil industry is a major trend which is boosting the prospects in the market. Strides in process industries in developed and developing regions of the globe are also boosting the demand for viscosity reducing agents. The viscosity reducing agents market is also seeing a progressively expanding revenue potential owing to the increasing worldwide demand for high quality crude oil which will create lucrative opportunities for the growth of the viscosity reducing agents market.
Also, companies' investment in R&D is the major trend that is gaining popularity in the viscosity reducing agents market. Companies operating in the viscosity reducing agents market are investing in R&D sectors and initiatives to develop technologically advanced products to meet demand from several end user industries overall the globe. Furthermore, rise in emerging new markets will also act as market drivers and further boost valuable opportunities for the market's growth rate.
