Abstract

The needs of method for re-use waste Automatic Transmission Fluids is very important in reducing the excessive use of lubricant it can cause the reduction of crude oil reserve,the increasing prices of crude oil and other thing that are involved with the use of bio-based oil.Furthermore,the purpose of the research is to investigate and study about the friction and wear of the transmission fluid based on the coefficient of friction, viscosity and wear scar diameter for waste automatic transmission fluid with addition of X-1R oil treatments. The value of viscosity at 40 °C and 100 °C is obtained by using Brookfield DV-II+Pro viscometer according to American Society Testing and Material (ASTM) standard which is ASTM D2770.Then,four ball testers were conducted by following wear preventive characteristics of lubricating fluid method that is ASTM D4172.Wear scar on the surface of the ball bearing was performed by using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM).The result depicts the dynamic viscosity for waste ATF with addition of 10 vol. % X-1R treatments shows the almost standard value to the new transmission oils; while the small wear scar diameter shows at addition of 15 vol.% X-1R treatments.The capability of X-1R ATF treatment exhibits the antioxidant is desirable in lubricating oils to prevent oxidation.
