“…One of these new alternatives is the chemically modified vegetable oils due to their non-toxic and renewable character and their good lubrication properties 1 . In addition, the vegetable oils are important for developing new lubricants, which meet the current economic needs of the country and demands for improved quality of life and protection of the environment 2 .…”

Currently, vegetable oils have been studied as biolubricants in order to reach new environmental standards. Besides being non-renewable, mineral oils from petroleum bring consequences to the environment due to its low biodegradability. Thus, the aim of this work is to develop a biolubricant and to add oxide nanoparticles (ZnO and CuO) in order to improve abrasion resistance and friction. This product must be biodegradable and has better performance under boundary lubrication. The methodology consisted of the synthesis of biolubricants using vegetable oils (soybean and sunflower) by epoxidation reaction. The tribological performance was evaluated by HFRR (High Frequency Reciprocating Rig). The developed biolubricants showed good tribological properties besides being more adapted to the environment. Also, it was possible to verify that biolubricants without additives are slightly more tribologically effective than lubricants with additives.

“…Synthetic esters could provide both the performance level needed and composition to satisfy the environmental aspects demanded of future lubricants (27). While polyalkylene glycols are biodegradable, their degradation rates are slow, relative to those of fatty acids, phosphate esters, and many commonly used surfactants.…”

“…Silicone oils are chemically inert, nontoxic and fire-resistant. They also have low pour points and volatility, good low-temperature fluidity, and good oxidation and thermal stability at high temperatures (15,27). Vegetable products as well as modified vegetable oil esters can be used as a base stock for preparation of environmentally friendly, rapidly biodegradable lubricants.…”

“…Future lubricants or coolants, which are used in cutting process, have to be more environmentally adapted, have a higher level of performance, and lower total life cycle cost (LCC) than presently used lubricants (3). The most interesting group for formulation of environmentally adapted lubricants is base fluids such as vegetable oils, synthetic fluids (polyglycols, polyalpha olefins (PAO), synthetic ester) (3)(4)(5)(6)(7).…”
