Plant-Based Natural Fibre Reinforced Composites: A Review on Fabrication, Properties and Applications (2020, background): “Many countries across the world have imposed restrictions for industries in the use of oil-based raw materials while fabricating different products [277,278].”
An Overview of the Biolubricant Production Process: Challenges and Future Perspectives (2020, background): “Several authors reported that these consecutive reactions improve low temperature properties, lubricity, viscosity index, and thermooxidative stability and reduce the friction coefficient [6,28,49,55,63].”
Chemically Modifying Vegetable Oils to Prepare Green Lubricants (2017, background): “Although biolubricants produced from vegetable oils are more costly than mineral lubricants, they are a promising alternative to synthetic and mineral oil-based lubricants because of their specific functional attributes such as high viscosity index, good lubricity, superior anticorrosion properties,”
The influence of fatty acids on tribological and thermal properties of natural oils as sustainable biolubricants (2015, background): “Many biolubricants are comprised of plant oils, animal fats, or chemical modifications of these oils and are widely regarded as environmentally benign because of their superior biodegradability and renewable feedstock [13].”
