Quenching Oil: Market Segmentation

Quenching refers to the process of rapid cooling of a substance at high temperature in water, oil, or air to impart certain material properties. The petroleum-based quenching media are non-corrosive and non-toxic. The high-performance quench oils must possess the properties like good chemical and oxidation stability, enhanced thermal conductivity, high flash point, and low volatility. The performance of quenching oil is directly related to its thermal stability and the content of additives. Quenching oil is used to treat steel/metallic parts, ferrous alloys, and finds application in several end-use sectors like automotive and many others.

Based on type, the market is divided into:

• Slow Speed Oil
• Medium Speed Oil
• Fast Speed Oil
• Special Quenching Oils
