Abstract

Lubricant oils play a vital role in all areas with the purpose of reducing wear, smooth functioning of the system, reducing cutting temperature, absorbing heat, and overall improving machining efficiency. General impact of the commercial lubricant that has been used in automobiles has adverse effect on the environment. With the advancement in nanomaterials, the nanomaterials have proved to perform under extreme temperature and pressure and have shown some significance in the lubrication areas as well. With the growing demands of lubricant oil and the pollution caused by them, there has been a need for utilizing a lubricant oil that is available in abundance and at the same time trying to utilize the naturally available resource. In order to enhance its characteristic performance a small addition of nano compound is added to improve its performance and efficiency. As it is already proved that non-edible vegetable oils can effectively be used as a lubricant in machines for its smooth functioning. The present work focuses on collaborating the nano compound with the non-edible vegetable oil and studying its physical properties. The obtained results were compared with the SAE 20W40 which is a petroleum-based lubricant oil.
