Impact of vegetable oil type on the rheological and tribological behavior of Montmorillonite-based oleogels

We formulated and characterized oleogels based on montmorillonite clay and vegetable oils that could serve as eco-friendly semi-solid lubricants. In particular, we studied the influence of the physical-chemical properties of olive, castor, soybean, linseed, and sunflower oils on the rheological, che...
