Conversion of waste transformer oil into grease

This work is aimed to study the viability of waste transformer oil (WTO) as grease’s base oil. The shift of lubricant formulation towards high-performance materials and green formulation has led to the development of various lubricant formulations, including grease. Waste reduction is one of the for...

Variability of waste oil composition, a mixture of conventional and synthetic oil, has led to inconsistent grease properties and performances.
