In response to the increasing environmental pollution concern and depleting petroleum reserves, biobased lubricants have received a great deal of interest as a substitute for mineral oil-based lubricants. Biolubricants have a number of advantages over mineral lubricants, including the high biodegradability, low toxicity, excellent lubrication performance, and minimal impact on human health/environment. This paper reviewed the most recent advancements in the synthesis of biolubricants from vegetable oils through chemical modification methods such as esterification/transesterification, estolide formation, and epoxidation of vegetable oils.
