Description
Summary:The article presents the results of research on lubrication properties of rapeseed oil, methyl esters of rapeseed oil, as well as esters with goose fat. Rapeseed oil has a better lubrication properties in relation to methyl esters of rapeseed oil. Addition of goose fat to esters negatively affected their lubrication properties. The presented results confirm a relationship between the degree of unsaturated and lubricated properties. Among the tested compounds with oxygen groups (COOH, COOCH3, C = O), the oleic acid (with a COOH group) characterised the best lubricity. The fat goose, which contains the least amount of unsaturated fatty acid esters, proved to be ineffective addition lubricity between the factor lubricants analysis.
