Lubricity of bio-based lubricant derived from different chemically modified fatty acid methyl ester [PDF]
In this research, polyol ester was used as the source of a biolubricant. The trimethylolpropane (TMP) and pentaerythritol ester (PE) were produced from palm oil methyl ester; they are biodegradable and have high lubricity properties.

Ultrasonic Intensification To Produce Diester Biolubricants
Biolubricants synthesized from vegetable oils with oleic acid and 1,3-propanediol possess better cold flow properties and have a smaller environmental footprint than mineral-based lubricants. However, their synthesis is lengthy (>6 h) and requires temperatures above 120 °C.
