Abstract
Replacing mineral oil with vegetable oils as lubricants continues to attract interest, due to their environmentally-friendly characteristics and ease of disposal. However, one disadvantage can be low thermal-oxidative stability. The purpose of our research is to investigate ways in which oxidation can be contained by combining palm oil with a phenolic antioxidant. A homogeneous mix of palm oil and tertiary-butyl-hydroquinone was found to exhibit satisfactory antioxidant properties and reduce wear and friction. Superior mineral engine oil was used to benchmark the performance.
