Prospects and Challenges of Microwave-Combined Technology for Biodiesel and Biolubricant Production through a Transesterification: A Review [PDF]

Molecules, 2021
Biodiesels and biolubricants are synthetic esters produced mainly via a transesterification of other esters from bio-based resources, such as plant-based oils or animal fats.

Box-Behnken design (BBD) for optimization and simulation of biolubricant production from biomass using aspen plus with techno-economic analysis [PDF]

Scientific Reports
The growing concern and limitations for existing lubricants have driven the need for biolubricants, extensively proposed as the most suitable and sustainable lubricating oils. Biolubricant refers to lubricants that quickly biodegrade and are non-toxic to

A Safety and Efficacy Study of a Synthetic Biolubricant in an Equine Model of Post-Traumatic Osteoarthritis [PDF]

Animals
Post-traumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA) is a common cause of lameness in the horse. There is no cure, therefore treatments are aimed at reducing pain and improving the joint environment by modifying inflammatory pathways or by viscosupplementation. Here, we

Understanding the Enzymatic Synthesis of a New Biolubricant: Decane-1,10-diyl bis(2-methylpentanoate) [PDF]

Molecules
The value of branched esters comes from the special properties they have in cold environments, which allow them to remain liquid over a wide range of temperatures. These properties make them useful for application in the cosmetic industry or as lubricant

Supramolecular Lubricating Hydrogel Microspheres Reshape Damaged Matrix Regeneration. [PDF]

Adv Sci (Weinh)
The supramolecular lubricating hydrogel microspheres can provide stable mechanophysical protection at damaged matrix through interfacial hydration lubrication: in the early and middle stages, microspheres can actively provide microscale supramolecular lubrication (µ ≈ 0.04) for damaged matrix; in the late stage, the wear debris induced by shear and ...

Wear Tests of a Potential Biolubricant for Orthopedic Biopolymers [PDF]

Lubricants, 2015
Most wear testing of orthopedic implant materials is undertaken with dilute bovine serum used as the lubricant. However, dilute bovine serum is different to the synovial fluid in which natural and artificial joints must operate.
