... 19 11 2008 New lubricating oils obtained from mixtures of synthetic diesters (di-2-ethylhexyl-adipate (DOA) and di-2-ethylhexyl-sebacate (DOS)) and vegetable oils (sunflower, SFO, soybean, SO and rapeseed oil, RO) are studied. The characteristics of all these mixtures are given...

.... At the same time, complex cold start cycles and fuel injection systems were developed that brought enriched fuel mixtures into the engine, causing a dramatic reduction in the viscosity of the lubricant film and thereby its capabilities to protect the sliding surfaces from wear. These higher mechanical...
