Environmental benefits of new industrial waste-based lubricant compositions

Abstract

Innovative industrial waste-based lubricants are analyzed. The lubricants based on spent diesel oil, low molecular weight polyethylene, polysulfide polymers and petroleum coke can reduce the cost of lubricants without reducing their technological characteristics. Polysulfide polymers synthesis from trichloropropane is described. Efficiency of the proposed lubricant is higher in comparison with pure spent diesel oil or spent diesel oil with addition of graphite.
