Biolubricant from Pongamia Oil
Recent researches focus on the development of lubricants from non-edible vegetable oil which are environment friendly and renewable. In the current work, an industrial lubricant is formulated from a non-edible vegetable oil viz. pongamia oil (PO) by blending it suitable additives.

An overview of functional biolubricants
AbstractAt present, more and more diseases are associated with the lubrication dysfunction, which requires a systematic study of the complex lubrication behavior of tissues and organs in human body. Natural biomacromolecular lubricants are essential for maintaining ultra-low coefficients of friction between sliding biological interfaces.

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.

A Sustainability Assessment of a Biolubricant [PDF]
SummaryA sustainability matrix has been developed at Shell Global Solutions to show the environmental, social, and economic impacts of a product. The approach aims to be quicker and more cost‐effective than a conventional life‐cycle assessment by focusing on specific areas of concern through the product life cycle and then comparing products by scaling
