TRIBOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF GREASES PREPARED ON MODIFIED VEGETABLE OILS
Journal Title: Tribologia - Year 2015, Vol 260, Issue 2
Abstract
The study investigated the usefulness of modified vegetable oils as disperse-phase grease. The influence of these oils on tribological characteristics and their resistance to oxidation were studied. To determine the oxidation resistance of greases, differential scanning calorimetry analysis (DSC) was used. Tribological tests were performed on boundary lubrication conditions and mashing. It was found that the lubricants produced on modified oils (viscosity class VG460) were characterized by more favourable properties of lubricants and resistance to oxidation than oils obtained in the viscosity class VG150. The additive used clearly improved antiwear and antiseizure lubricants, although its effect was varied and largely depended on the viscosity of the oil used.
