Abstract
AbstractThe rheological and tribological properties of environmentally compatible lubricants of different bases (native oil, synthetic ester, polyalkylene glycol‐containing oil) compared to a conventional, mineral oil‐based lubricant are investigated in order to develop toxicologically harmless and technically suitable lubricants for electromechanical drives. The aging of the oil is also considered. The results of this study reveal that the properties of polyalkylene glycol‐containing and synthetic ester‐based lubricants have the potential to act as substitutes for lubricants containing mineral oil. By examining and improving the properties of sustainable lubricants, gear oils that are partially or totally non‐mineral oil based will be highly attractive in the future.
