Download or read book Chemistry and Technology of Lubricants written by Roy M. Mortier and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 397 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The use of lubricants began in ancient times and has developed into a major international business through the need to lubricate machines of increasing complexity. The impetus for lubricant development has arisen from need, so lubricating practice has preceded an understanding of the scientific principles. This is not surprising as the scientific basis of the technology is, by nature, highly complex and interdisciplinary. However, we believe that the understanding of lubricant phenomena will continue to be developed at a molecular level to meet future challenges. These challenges will include the control of emissions from internal combustion engines, the reduction of friction and wear in and continuing improvements to lubricant performance and machinery, life-time. More recently, there has been an increased understanding of the chemical aspects of lubrication, which has complemented the knowledge and understanding gained through studies dealing with physics and engineering. This book aims to bring together this chemical information and present it in a practical way. It is written by chemists who are authorities in the various specialisations within the lubricating industry, and is intended to be of interest to chemists who may already be working in the lubricating industry or in academia, and who are seeking a chemist's view of lubrication. It will also be of benefit to engineers and technologists familiar with the industry who require a more fundamental understanding of lubricants.

Download or read book Advances in Lubricant Additives and Tribology written by S.P. Srivastava and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2009-03-15 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is understood that hydrogen is going to be the future clean fuel, which can either be used in fuel cells or directly in engines. This will mean that there will be challenges to the lubricant developers to meet the requirements of new engines using hydrogen as fuel, where there would be no soot, no sulphur, and no carbon deposits from fuels. Lubricating base oil technology has changed during the last decade. API group III oils produced through hydro processes and GTL base oils are free from sulphur and nitrogen and have high viscosity index. Therefore the engine oil formulations would have to change considerably in the near future. The use of biodegradable lubricants mainly based on vegetable oils or genetically modified vegetable oils, would increase in the agricultural and forest sector. This book incorporates up-to-date information on these important subjects, which shall enable the readers to understand the dynamics of lubricant additive technology and tribology. The book will be useful to all those engaged in education and research in the field of lubricant additives and lubricants.

Download or read book Lubricants and Related Products written by Dieter Klamann and published by Wiley-VCH. This book was released on 1984-03-19 with total page 489 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dieter Klamann Lubricants and Related Products Improved engine performance and new applications have necessitated considerable advances and developments in lubricant technology. Mineral oils without additives are rarely sufficient as lubricants for modern equipment. Rather, synthetic base oils have gained importance because their properties and behaviour can be tailored to suit their applications. Tribology and tribotechnology have become scientific disciplines of their own. They deal with all aspects of friction, wear and lubrication and are based on physics, chemistry and mechanical engineering. Their economic importance follows from the estimate that between four and five percent of the total energy consumed could be saved by better lubrication. It is the purpose of this book to present the information that is needed in order to understand the essentials of lubrication and to select the most suitable lubricant in any given case. All types of lubricants and additives are described, and methods for predicting their behaviour on the basis of physical and chemical data are reported. Moreover, standards and specifications from the major industrialized countries are reviewed and made "compatible" with the aid of conversion tables
Download or read book Biobased Lubricants and Greases written by Lou Honary and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2011-06-28 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Due to the rise in petroleum prices as well as increasing environmental concerns, there is a need to develop biochemicals and bioproducts that offer realistic alternatives to their traditional counterparts; this book will address the lack of a centralized resource of information on lubricants and greases from renewable sources, and will be useful to a wide audience in industry and academia. It is based on 20 years of research and development at the UNI-NABL Center, and discusses the various types of vegetable oils available, comparing their characteristics, properties and benefits against those of typical petroleum oils as well as discussing common evaluation tests and giving examples and case studies of successful applications of biobased lubricants and greases. Whilst scientific and engineering research data is included, the book is written in an accessible manner and is illustrated throughout. Focuses on an industrial application of lubrication technology undergoing current explosive growth in the global market. Includes a detailed review of the material benefits of plant-based lubricants that include a better viscosity index and lubricity even at extreme temperatures, lower flammability due to higher flash points and lower pour points. Covers the basic chemistry of vegetable oils as well as their profiles for use in lubricants and greases and environmental benefits. Includes examples and case studies of where vegetable-based lubricants have been successfully employed in industry applications.

Book excerpt: NANOLUBRICANTS Through the dissemination of the latest advancements in nanolubrication science, this volume addresses the pressing concerns surrounding their economic feasibility, environmental acceptability, sustainability, and overall viability. Lubrication is the lifeblood of machinery and the key to its smooth operation. In the world of mechanics and engineering, the role of lubricants cannot be overstated. They are the unsung heroes that reduce friction between surfaces in contact, thus preventing excessive heat generation during motion. Beyond this primary function, lubricants find their application in diverse areas, including power transmission, foreign object transportation, and the regulation of surface temperature. In recent times, the world has shifted towards sustainable and environmentally-friendly practices, prompting a transition from conventional lubricants to more efficient and eco-conscious alternatives. Among these emerging solutions, nanolubricants have emerged as formidable contenders, reshaping the landscape of lubrication technology. Their adoption not only promises enhanced performance but also carries the added benefit of environmental responsibility through biodegradability. This book delves into the multifaceted realm of nanolubricants, exploring their characterization and application across various domains. From vegetable oil-based lubricants to those incorporating metal and non-metal oxide components, this comprehensive work encompasses nine meticulously curated chapters. A particular focus is placed on the intriguing synergy between nano-dimensionality and the incorporation of metals and metal oxides into vegetable oil-based biodegradable lubricants. The book explores the environmental advantages, progress, and challenges associated with this innovative approach. Furthermore, it delves into the integration of functionalized nanostructured semi-metal-based compounds as lubricant additives in non-edible vegetable oils, paving the way for improved tribological properties. Audience The book is extremely important to industrial practitioners working in mechanical engineering, tribology, wear, tear, friction and lubrication behavior of machinery. Researchers in nanoscience, nanotechnology, materials science, and sustainability subjects, will find this book useful.
