Currently, the primary oils used as industrial lubricating agents are mineral oil and chemical synthetic oils. The disposal of these oils are generates carbon dioxide and harmful substances which contributes to global warming and serious environmental pollution. In this research, various edible oils are used as lubricating agents and examined for friction and wear-out characteristics. The results of the tests were compared to the results of mineral oils tested under the same conditions. The research found that colza, sesame, and econa oils had an equivalent effect to the mineral oil tested. Furthermore, component analysis found these edible oils contained a significant amount of oleic acids.
