Abstract
The tribological properties were determined by motion resistances, wear and lubricant film concentration. The surfaces were analysed after tribological tests. The aim of the investigation was an attempt to obtain a correlation between wear quantities being measured and percentage content of bioadditives in fuel oil. It was found that at as little as 5% of the additive the coefficient of friction decreases by about 20% while wear decreases twofold relative to fuel oil, which may result from an increase in the stability of the lubricant film.
