Abstract
The evaluation of friction and wear characteristic in lubrication is investigated by formulating a bio lubricant. The formulated bio lubricant is needed to acts as an alternative to reduce the usage of mineral oil that facing a depletion problem and also have a potential to bring harm to the human and environment. Cooking palm oil that act as a new source is used to reduce the dependence on mineral oil that commonly used in conventional lubricant. A portion of 10% to 40% of cooking palm oil ratio is blended with the base SAE 40 lubricant to produce a bio-lubricant and its properties data recorded. Four-ball tribo testing machine is used to conduct the friction and wear experiment to examine the formulated lubricants. Cooking palm oil also can represent as lubricant additive due to its ability to reduce friction very well. The addition of 30% cooking palm oil into the conventional lubricant shows the best result in every aspect.
