| Sumari: | Lubricant is responsible for reducing the wear on the friction protect the metal
against oxidation, corrosion and dissipates excess heat, making it essential for the
balance of a mechanical system, consequently prolonging the useful life of such a
system. The origin of lubricating oils is usually mineral being extracted from the
petroleum. But the search for a new source of production of lubricants and fuels it is
necessary to meet future demands and reduce the possible environmental damage. For
this reason, looking alternative means to produce certain products derived from
petroleum, such as biodiesel, for example. Returning to the realm of lubricants, also one
realizes this need for new raw materials for their production. Vegetable oil is a
renewable resource and biodegradable, and its use entails advantages in environmental,
social and economic. The development of this project aims to characterize the carnauba
oil as a lubricant plant, or biolubricant. To analyze the oil carnauba tests as checking
density, flash point, fire point, viscosity, viscosity, acid number, pH, copper corrosion,
thermal conductivity and thermal resistivity were developed. In addition, for conducting
the wear on the friction and the gradient of the system temperature, the analysis
equipment is designed for wear on the friction. Based on these results, it is observed that
the oil carnauba show good correlation to its application as biolubricant |
