Article Description

Due to continuous extraction of fossil fuels to meet the the energy demand has put adverse effect on our environment leads to focus more on ecological sources to meet the energy demand. Also, the high cost of edible oil in recent years shifts to work on non-edible oil that are easily available, low cost and clean form of energy source. In this study, the work is focused on Styrax officinalis as the feedstock for bio-lubricant production. The different loads were applied and maximum friction was observed at higher loads. The chemically modified Styrax oil showed better properties. Reduction in friction and wear was observed.
