“…An MFT-5000 Multi-Function Tribometer (Rtec instruments, San Jose, CA, USA) was used to conduct the tribological investigations on the oil samples (10 mL) under three temperatures (25,50, and 75 • C). These temperatures were chosen since most industrial applications involve using oil lubricants in a temperature range from 40 • C to 80 • C [39].…”

“…On the other hand, such products should have similar environmental specifications that can meet market expectations. Therefore, the transport sector still shows potential to further investigate the applicability of oils produced from various technologies, especially those that rely on solid waste (SW) and biomass [22][23][24][25]. ELTs have presented themselves as a prime example of a special waste category that possesses hazardous potential to the surrounding environment when not dealt with properly [9].…”

Over one billion rubber tires are disposed of worldwide annually as a major component of the solid waste stream, posing a significant environmental risk. Therefore, recycling and taking advantage of the rubber component in End-of-Life Tires (ELTs) presents an advantageous opportunity to produce environmentally friendly and cost-effective products. This work studied multiple properties of oil extracted from ELTs using thermal pyrolysis (i.e., pyro-oil) as a potential candidate for industrial lubrication applications. First, pyro-oil was characterized by studying its morphological and chemical properties. Then, rheological studies were conducted to explore the oil properties at different temperatures and shear rates. A tribometer was also used to assess pyro-oil’s tribological performance at different temperatures and speeds. Finally, wettability and thermal analyses were performed to understand the wetting and thermal stability properties. The results revealed that pyro-oil has chemical properties similar to conventional engine oil with slightly higher sulfur content. Furthermore, the pyro-oil exhibited lower viscosity and lubrication performance than conventional engine oil, but this difference was smaller at higher temperatures. Thermal stability and wetting properties of pyro-oil were found to be significantly lower than those of conventional engine oil. Based on the properties found and compared with engine oil, pyro-oil presents itself as a suitable liquid lubricant for low-speed, low-load applications operating in temperatures below 61 °C. This work presents a comprehensive study of pyro-oil properties extracted from end-of-life waste tires, offering a feasible route to obtain sustainable and low-cost products.
