The fuel additives market size was valued at 1,767.83 kiloton in 2020 and the market size is projected to register a considerable CAGR of more than 5% during the forecast period, 2021-2028. The growth of market is attributed to the introduction of strict environmental rules relating to greenhouse gas emissions.
Fuel additives are chemical components that are added to gasoline to improve its performance. These chemicals' principal functions include corrosion inhibitors, anti-foaming, friction reducers, and antioxidation. Many problems with the fuel distribution system can be prevented by using gasoline additives. They help to increase the efficiency and quality of car fuels.
To increase the quality and performance of various fuels, fuel additives are frequently employed. With the outbreak of Covid-19 and suspension of international air travel and economic activity throughout the world has had a significant impact on the market for gasoline additives. The United States is the world's second-largest car market in terms of both sales & manufacturing. Automobile sales fell by roughly 1.8 percent in 2019. Automakers, on the other hand, have been attempting to revitalize the sector by withdrawing their earlier models from domestic market. The Covid-19 epidemic has also had an effect on the automobile sector.
