Abstract

As environmentalconcerns grow, vegetable oils arefinding their way into lubricants for industrialand transportation applications.These oils offer significant environmentalbenefits with respect to resourcerenewability and biodegradability, as wellas providing satisfactory performance in awide array of applications. This paper aims to determine the properties of different biofuel lubricants prepared from vegetable oils. The investigations of temperature and viscosity propertiesof the lubricating oil were established and their effect on the property changes of the lubricant. Experiments are created based on SVM test machine, the results shows density, absolute viscosity, and kinematic viscosity of three vegetable oils, the tested oils are Palm, Corn, and Almond oils.
