| Description | Journal: Iop Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering This study investigates the effect of epoxide based bio-lubricant derived from Calophyllum Inophyllum blended in commercial gear oil. The tribological properties of the blends are investigated on a four-ball wear tester. The base lubricant used is EP-140 gear oil and study is carried out by blends in 5%, 10%, 15%, 20% volume percentages of Calophyllum Inophyllum oil. Both wear test and friction test were carried out as per ASTM standards for various blends and the results were studied. The experimental results show that the base oil wear scar diameter increased with an increase in load and reduced by the addition of Calophyllum Inophyllum concentrations. The frictional torque is analyzed and the coefficient of friction is calculated. The results shows that 15% of bio-oil concentration is relatively more efficient compared to the other three. Despite a fall in seizure load, the overall results reveal that the addition of 15% Calophyllum Inophyllum to EP-140 gear oil performs better thereby improving anti-wear characteristics of the commercially available lubricants. |
