Abstract
Resource and energy saving is an important global problem. Vegetable oil based lubricants are becoming increasingly important in the industrial lubricants market due to their biodegradability, renewability, minimal environmental impact, excellent tribological performance and stringent environmental regulations. This review article discusses various aspects of biolubricants, such as the chemical composition of various vegetable oils, chemical modification methods used to synthesize biolubricants, the physicochemical and rheological properties of biolubricants, the tribological characteristics of biolubricants under various conditions, and various nanoparticles used to improve performance. biolubricants. In addition, the prospects for the use of bio-lubricants in road transport are considered.
