Abstract Friction and wear consume approximately 1/3 of energy each year and are associated with 80% of mechanical failures. The use of appropriate lubricants can reduce friction and wear between mechanical components, so as to save energy and prolong the service life of equipment. As an important lubricant product, grease is mainly composed of base oil, thickener, and additives. It has the functions of lubrication, sealing, vibration reduction and cooling. It has been widely used in mechanical components such as bearings, gears, and chains. Currently, most greases use non-renewable mineral oil as the base oil. However, with the increasingly serious problems such as environmental pollution and the depletion of petroleum resources, the preparation of greases using vegetable oil as the base oil has gained popularity in recent years. Vegetable oil has advantages such as high viscosity, strong adsorption to metal surfaces, and excellent biodegradability. Consequently, scholars have developed a series of vegetable oil-based greases by replacing mineral oil with castor oil, soybean oil, and other vegetable oils. Based on the existing research, this paper first analyzes the advantages of vegetable oils as base oils from their molecular structure. Next, this paper discusses recent studies on grease preparation using different types of vegetable oils. Subsequently, it proposes methods to evaluate the degradation performance of vegetable oil-based lubricating grease under various scenarios. Finally, the future development trend of vegetable oil-based grease was prospected in order to provide reference for the follow-up research and development work.
