Global Competitive Analysis of Water Glycol Hydraulic Fluids Market

Hydraulic fluids primarily lubricate pumps and motors within the hydraulic system without impairing the function of other components. Hydraulic equipment uses hydraulic fluids and in case of oil leakage, especially if the fluid used is mineral oil comes into contact with heat source it may pose a great risk of a fire hazard. Fire resistant hydraulic fluids were developed to mitigate this risk. These fluids are widely used in various industrial equipment & machineries. As per the ISO classification, fire resistant hydraulic fluids are classified as HFA Type - Oil in Water Emulsions, HFB Type – Water in Oil Emulsions, HFC Type - Water Glycol Fluids, and HFD Type - Anhydrous Synthetic Fluids. Of these, water glycol hydraulic fluids are commonly used fire resistant hydraulic fluids. The appropriate fire resistant hydraulic fluid should be selected by working closely with the fluid manufacturer for analyzing the system operation and matching the equipment needs with fluid capabilities.

Water glycol fluids offer an optimum combination of fire resistance and performance & cost economics. Water glycol fluids are widely used fire-resistant fluids because of the way they combine fire-resistant properties with lubrication performance to provide excellent value. Water glycol fluids (HFC) are made up 35% to 40% of water to provide resistance to fire; glycol, and water soluble thickener to improve viscosity. Water glycol fluids also contain additives to prevent foaming, rust, and corrosion; and improve lubrication. Additives are performance enhancing chemicals. They include corrosion inhibitors for vapor as well as liquid phase, viscosity index modifiers, anti-wear additives for lubrication, and metal passivators for copper, brass and bronze. These additives usually account for 10% to 15% of total fluid composition. Unlike mineral oils, water glycols do not degrade by heat or metal in the system that acts as catalysts. Thus, these fluids offer virtually an indefinite life with little maintenance.

Tunnel Boring Machine Market: Applications, Revenue, Growth and Trends

Tunnel boring machines are gigantic special-purpose machines, particularly used in building tunnels for roads, railways, and pipelines. These machines are long with circular cross-sections and help in boring round holes through any rock. Tunnel boring machines are intricate assemblies of several systems working in conjunction with each other. Diameter of tunnel boring machines ranges from 1 meter to 20 meters. These machines can cut clean through rocks, sometimes along with creating concrete shields around the bored tunnels. The tunnel boring machine market is largely driven by the increase in spending on road and railway infrastructure. Countries such as China, Japan, Italy, South Korea, Norway, and Germany have vast tunnel networks. The key reason is to connect major cities within the country, sometimes even international, with minimum commute time. This largely optimizes the transportation costs and connects cities to boost commerce. The other method for building tunnels is...
