Silicone lubricants are used for the lubrication of metal and nonmetal surfaces. They are also suitable for rubber, polyvinyl, wood, and other materials. These lubricants also perform well in extreme weather conditions, which include scorching temperatures or freezing conditions. Silicone lubricants are great water repellents and hence protect from rust. However, with technological advances, the lubricant market offers extended benefits, such as reducing the interval for changing oil, increasing equipment life, emitting low carbon, and reducing equipment maintenance costs. The silicone lubricant market has undergone significant changes due to recent developments, evolving needs, and preferences of customers.

Phosphoramidites are modified chemical nucleosides used in oligonucleotide synthesis. Nucleoside phosphoramidites were first discovered in 1981. Before phosphoramidite discovery, deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) synthesis methodologies were bounded in quality, length, and yield due to inefficacious reactions that produced mutated or truncated oligonucleotides. In addition, due to the inefficient use of extra protecting groups attached to each nucleotide, intermediates catalyzing the synthesis process became highly unstable, predisposing the growing oligonucleotide to damage.

Lubricant additives are fundamental components of lubricant raw materials, which are used for the formulation of lubricant products. They are added in small quantities in a base oil to enhance its features for manufacturing, storage, transport, and application. Additives in a lubricant formulation are over 5% by weight. The fundamental purpose of using additives in a lubricant formulation is to enhance its characteristic properties imparted by the main components of the additive material. Lubricant additives have three basic functions

Grease is used for the lubrication of any mechanical system. The main purpose of grease is to reduce friction between moving parts, which will increase mechanical systems’ efficiency and output. Grease also reduces machine parts’ wear.

Industrial lubricants protect machines and equipment from wear and tear, reduce downtime, increase service intervals, and lower maintenance costs. Industrial lubricants are made from base oils and additives. The global industrial lubricants market is classified into four product types: industrial oil, metalworking fluid, process oil, and grease.

前三季度基础化工行业实现较快增长，增速有所下滑。2022 年前 三季度，中信基础化工行业实现营业收入19450.62 亿元，同比增 长29.93%，实现净利润 2162.07 亿元，同比增长25.70%。前三 季度基础化工行业的收入、利润仍保持较快增长，但与中报业绩相 比，前三季度增速较2022 年上半年出现明显回落。今年第三季度， 基础化工行业的收入同比仍保持增长态势，但营业利润与净利润同 比、环比皆呈现下降态势，显示行业的景气度出现明显下滑。 前三季度，基础化工33 个子行业营业收入总体保持增长态势，净利润 出现较为明显的分化。锂电化学品、钾肥、民爆用品等行业业绩表现 较好。

2022 年双十一，综合星图/魔镜/青眼等第三方数据，天猫美妆个护销售额 402 亿元/同比-11%，直播电商全品类 1814 亿元/同比+146%；我们推算“天猫美 妆+直播美妆”销售额同比约+9.2%，而全渠道美妆销售额增速介于 0~9.2%。 天猫美妆表现一般，而全渠道美妆增速符合预期。分品牌类型看：本土优质龙 头逆势高增，新锐美妆严重分化，国际品牌整体增长乏力。

Grease is used to lubricate any mechanical system. The main purpose of grease is to reduce friction between moving parts, which increases the efficiency and output of the system. Moreover, grease reduces wear on machine parts and extends the life of components.

Engine oil is a lubricating system explicitly designed for use in engines. It decreases friction between engine surfaces that come into contact with each other. It reduces energy waste caused by friction and is highly effective in cleaning, cooling, and protecting metal components from corrosion and rust. A good quality engine oil is critical for the proper operation of an engine as it enables smooth engine operations, prevents engine damage, and extends engine life.

Diesel engine lubricants are essential for improving the performance of diesel engines. Diesel engine lubricants offer smooth functioning of the engine block, piston assembly, and crankshaft. When a diesel engine is in operation, diesel engine lubricants form a protective film between moving parts, such as pistons, engine blocks, crankshafts, and valves. If lubricants are not maintained up to a certain level in a diesel engine, it can lead to the malfunction of the diesel engine and engine jamming. As a result, diesel engines’ performance suffers.
