Description New demands on lubricants require. in addition to better quality and perfonnance. environmebt: friendliness and eventual biodegradability. The availability of a vaI1ety of vegetable 01ls offers great potential for making bio-degradable lubricants on a large scale. Further. vegetable oils with unconvep.tit;)nal chemistry (the mono-ester type). because of their free miscibility with mineral 011base stocks and better oiliness characteristics. can be blended with the latter leading to conservation and certain degree of bii:>-&gradability. Blending of jojoba oil. a mono-ester type vegetable 011.:with mineral 011base stocks can lead to enhancement of lubricating :characteristics thereby imparting improvement in viscosity index. aitUfoam. antirust. antiwear and friction reduction properties to the blends. This will also lead to reducing the dosage or eliminating some of the conventional additives presently being used to impart these~characteristics in lubricating oil formulations. The triglyceride type' of vegetable oils can also be convefted to the mono-ester type by transesterification using a suitable higher fatty alcohol for this purpose. The paper presents results of the studiecarried out in this direction using a variety of vegetable oils.
