“…One of the several ways to reduce unsaturation is to partially hydrogenate (Dehault & Demoulin 1984;King et al 2001) these vegetable oils to improve their service lives without affecting the freezing points to a large extent. Epoxidation (Adhvaryu et al 2004;Castro et al 2006;Fox & Stachowiak 2007; R e t r a c t e d Additionally, neat vegetable oils also pose some problems when subjected to extended use in internal combustion engines. These problems are attributed to high viscosity, low volatility and polyunsaturated character of neat vegetable oils, which could be substantially reduced by conducting chemical modifications to the carboxyl group in TAG molecules of vegetable oils.…”

“…Natural biodegradable oils possess good anti-wear properties and low friction [26]. The conventional lubrication mechanisms based on physical and chemical adsorption, where the polar molecules play a key role in interactions with the sliding surfaces, the best tribological performance is expected for vegetable oils, which consist of a considerable amount of fatty acids with unsaturated bonds [27]. Vegetable oils are renewable resources, environmentally friendly non-toxic fluids, biodegradable and have no health hazards.…”

“…The triacrylglycerol structure of vegetable oil makes it an excellent candidate for potential use as a base stock for lubricants and functional fluids [28]. It was observed that wear resistance of lubricated surfaces can be significantly improved by the formation of a stable tribochemical film [29]. This film can be applied on the sliding surfaces through the polar action of vegetable oil.…”

“…Erhan and co-workers (Erhan and Asadauskas, 2000;Adhvaryu and Erhan, 2002;Adhvaryu et al, 2004;Erhan et al, 2006) have reported some advantages and disadvantages concerning the use of vegetable oils and organic esters as liquid lubricants. As they pointed out, the main disadvantage of vegetable oils is their poor oxidative stability in comparison to some of the mineral oils traditionally employed.…”
