Abstract
The disposal of the mineral oil are the major concern of environment pollution due to their toxicity. Neem oil are the suitable substitutes in the form of bio based lubricant. In this study Neem oil was mixed with the mineral oil in different ratios by volume (5%, 10% and 15%). The friction and wear characteristics of the lubricant was tested on Pin-on disc machine. The effect of load was analysed during the process. The load was applied from 30 N to 90 N at a fixed sliding speed. When the load increases, friction increases and higher friction was attained at 90 N load. The 10% blend produces better results with comparison to other blends. Minimum wear was also obtained at 10% blend.
