| Summary: | Globally, bio-lubricants are getting attention as these are sustainable, environment friendly, having good lubricity and can easily be extracted from vegetable oils. This study focused on the formulation of TMP based bio-lubricant from renewable cotton seed oil and measuring of its tribological characteristics to evaluate its potential for replacing petroleum-based lubricants. Coefficient of friction and wear for cylinder liner-piston ring combination was measured on HFRR and four-ball. SEM, EDX and surface morphology also described the wear nature and their surface roughness. SAE-40 was studied as a reference commercial lubricant for comparison purposes. It is concluded that pure cotton bio lubricant (CBL-100) gives good lubricity with low COF but higher wear than SAE-40. So, cotton bio lubricant with suitable anti-wear additives package has great potential to be used in global lubricant market instead of mineral based lubricants. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. |
