The paper presents the rheological characterization of a bio-ester with possible lubricant properties, obtained from soybean oil fatty acids. The rheological characterization was carried out under thermostatic conditions, using a Brookfield CAP2000+L viscometer in the characteristic domain of these fluids. The variation of the apparent viscosity ηa as a function of shear rate γ and the variation of the two indices (K and n) as a function of temperature were determined, as well as the flow activation energy, Ea from Arrhenius type equations. A rheological model was proposed.

Keywords: apparent viscosity, fatty acids, non-Newtonian behavior
