Lubricants are essential in engineering, however more sustainable
formulations are needed to avoid adverse effects on the ecosystem.
Bio-based lubricant formulations present a promising solution.
Biolubricants: Science and technology is a comprehensive,
interdisciplinary and timely review of this important subject.
Initial chapters address the principles of lubrication, before
systematically reviewing fossil and bio-based feedstock resources
for biodegradable lubricants. Further chapters describe catalytic,
(bio) chemical functionalisation processes for transformation of
feedstocks into commercial products, product development, relevant
legislation, life cycle assessment, major product groups and
specific performance criteria in all major applications. Final
chapters consider markets for biolubricants, issues to consider
when selecting and using a lubricant, lubricant disposal and future
trends.
With its distinguished authors, Biolubricants: Science and
technology is a comprehensive reference for an industrial audience
of oil formulators and lubrication engineers, as well as
researchers and academics with an interest in the subject. It
provides an essential overview of scientific and technological
developments enabling the cost-effective improvement of
biolubricants, something that is crucial for the green future of
the lubricant industry.
