Selected / Sample Analysis done in the full Report:

• The refrigerant oil industry value chain is a four step production to distribution system. The first step involves sourcing of raw materials, for e.g., ammonia (NH3) is the raw material for Polyalphaolefins (PAO). The key step to any value chain analysis is the production center, where the use of polyalphaolefins reduces the amount of oil mist and oil vapor which are collected in the oil separators.    The key step to any value chain analysis is the production center, where manufacturing units’ use of polyalphaolefins can reduce the amount of oil mist and oil vapor which collects in oil separators.
• Raw materials such as ammonia and benzene are crucial for the production of refrigerant oil, which can be usually procured in bulk. Chemical suppliers or petrochemical refineries are basically the raw material suppliers for such products to the manufacturers.
• Manufacturers then considering various applications and parameters, prepare the product for the end-user industry. Idemitsu Kosan Co Ltd, Carrier Corporation and JX Holdings Inc. are amongst the major manufacturers for refrigerant oil.
• After the manufacturing process, there can be two scenarios for the end-users, who in this case can be refrigerator or air conditioning manufacturers or automobile manufacturer. First scenario is a system where manufacturers directly supply the finished product to the end-users.
• Second is, where suppliers or distributors take these finished products from the manufacturers to the end-users, leading to a wider reach of end-user industries. Major end-user industries for this market include industries such as industrial cooling, automotive, refrigerant manufacturers.
