Popis: An engine cylinder liner–piston ring tribotester was used to investigate the effects of different diesel fuels on the tribological properties of a cylinder liner–piston ring. The wear surface morphology and roughness were analyzed using a scanning electron microscope and a surface profiler. The chemical structures and components of the tested oils were characterized using a Fourier transform infrared spectrophotometer and gas chromatography–mass spectrometry. The chemical components and element distribution on the rubbed surface were studied using energy-dispersive X-ray spectra. The results showed that the cylinder liner–piston ring lubricated with bio-oil (BO) had a lower friction coefficient but higher wear mass and greater surface roughness than one lubricated with diesel oil (DO), and emulsified bio-oil (EBO) can decrease the wear weight loss and surface roughness of the friction pairs. The protective film created by BO between the cylinder liner and piston ring lowered the friction coefficient due t...
