Formulation of biogrease from castor waste
Grease is a mixture of a fluid lubricant usually petroleum oil and a thickener (soap) dispersed in the oil. The base oil (petroleum) can be changed by using the castor waste. Other than base oil, thickener may play an important role in the mixture. Soap thickeners are formed by reacting metallic hyd...
