“…It was noted that the lubricant utilized to gain this result is highly viscose. e high viscosity related to high interface speed may exert an adverse effect on the material's wear rate [39,40]. Figure 11(b) shows the SWR versus load applied to mild steel lubricated by the 80 percent synthetic oil mixture.…”

New lubricants based on vegetable oil were developed in this study. Different blends of canola oil mixed with fully synthetic two stock engine oils were developed (0, 20%, 40%, 60%, and 80% of synthetic oil). The viscosity of the prepared blends was determined at different temperatures (20°C–80°C). Tribological experiments were conducted to investigate the effect of the newly developed oil on the wear characteristics of mild steel material compared with stainless steel when subjected to adhesive wear loading. The weight loss (WL) and the specific wear rate (SWR) of the mild steel using each of the prepared lubricants were determined. Scanning electron microscopy was used to examine the worn surface of the mild steel. The results revealed that pure canola oil as a lubricant performed competitively against a blend of 80% synthetic and 20% canola oils. The viscosity of the canola oil and its various blends with synthetic oil are controlled by the environmental temperature since an increased temperature reduces the viscosity. Also, the experimental results revealed that operating parameters play the main role in controlling the wear behavior of mild steel since increasing the sliding distances increases the weight loss. The specific wear rate exhibited a steady state after about 5 km sliding distance, and different blends influenced the applied loads and velocity differently. The mixing ratio of canola and syntactic oil was not particularly significant since the pure canola oil exhibited competitive wear performance compared with the blends. However, an intermediate mixing ratio (40%–60% synthetic oil mixed with 60%–40% canola) can produce a slightly low specific wear rate among other things.

“…The vegetable oil (Canola oil) used in this work is obtainable from grocery shops as vegetable oil. Fully synthetic catrol oil for two-stroke engines was also used as synthetic oil, as many researchers suggested [28,29]. The specifications of the vegetable and synthetic oil are presented in Table 1.…”

“…It also shows that as the concentration of the synthetic oil increases, the blend viscosity also increases. The increase in the viscosity may be due to the presence of synthetic additives such as EVA into the vegetable oil which plays the main role in controlling the viscosity and stabilises the prepared blend [29,32,33]. In a recent study by Rafiq, Lv [34], it was reported that vegetable oil had less viscosity values at all temperatures than the synthetic oil.…”

In this study, two stock engine oils were developed using different blends of a vegetable oil (canola oil), mixed with fully synthetic oil (0 %, 20 %, 40 %, 60 %, and 80 % of synthetic oil). The viscosity of the prepared blends was determined at different temperatures (20 ºC -80 ºC). Tribological experiments were conducted, according to the conditions of the prepared lubricants, to investigate the influence of the newly developed oil on the frictional characteristics of mild steel material against stainless steel subjected to adhesive wear loading. Scanning electron microscopy was used to examine the worn surface of the mild steel. The results revealed that blending the canola oil with synthetic oil increases the viscosity of the lubricants. Moreover, the viscosity of the canola oil and its blends with synthetic oil is controlled by the environmental temperature since increasing the temperature reduces viscosity. The experimental results revealed that the frictional coefficient of the mild steel was dependent on the applied load and velocity rather than the sliding distance. In addition, pure canola oil as a lubricant was able to compete in performance with a blend of 80 % synthetic and 20 % canola oils.

“…Because of limitation to use edible based bio-lubricant from vegetable oils (sunflower, coconut, soybean etc. ), waste cooking oil (WCO) collected from food production industries, restaurants and kitchen can be used as an alternative [4]. It has been found that triglyceride structure of vegetable oils provide quality which is desirable in a lubricant.…”

Immense study of environment friendly and renewable lubricant is now a day's major field of research for the overall sustainable development. Most of the challenges are taken towards recyclable waste to product. The Present work investigates the characterization and frictionwear behavior of Inconel 800 against 100Cr Steel applying Kitchen Chimney Dump Lard (KCDL) as a bio-lubricant. The characterization study by FTIR (Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy) has shown the presence of fatty acid ester in KCDL. Tribological tests have been performed on Inconel 800 at different load and speed in a lubricated condition. From the experiment, it has been investigated that there is no such change in specific wear rate due to better lubricity property and the presence of strong bonded beneficial tribofilm on KCDL. The coefficient of friction (COF) increases with the increase in speed and load but it is less compared to waste cooking oil, and Castrol GTX 20W-50.
