Various blends containing glycerol, castor oil (NCO) and cashew nut shell liquid (CNSL) were made following soft computational techniques and the blend consisting 60% glycerol and 40% NCO was proposed, which exhibited 37% less coefficient of friction (CoF) than NCO and CNSL and 50% less CoF and comparable extreme pressure properties to non-biodegradable commercial mineral oil (CMO). Accelerated wear was indicated by particle quantifier index for CMO, NCO and CNSL samples while normal wear was observed in glycerol and the proposed blend. SEM and 3-D profilometer images exhibited more damaged surfaces in NCO and CNSL than other lubricants. Raman spectra indicated the presence of FeOOH, OH, HOH and fatty acids on the wear tracks of the proposed blend.

<p>Cashew Nut Shell Liquid (CNSL) which has been known as a waste of processing cashew fruits which is contain phenolic compounds have activity as larvicides. Cashew nut shell liquid is not soluble in the water where the larvae grow. Cashew nut shell liquid mixed with water-soluble extract of soapnut fruit which serves as a natural surfactant that can emulsify oil in water. The test subjects were larvae of <em>Aedes aegypti </em>third instar. Test subjects were divided into treatment group and control group. In the treatment group, test subjects were  the mixture of CNSL and Ethylacetat Soluble Extract (ESE) in tap water. The Larvae mortality observations were done 24 hours after the treatment. LC<sub>50</sub> and LC<sub>90 </sub>as final test data were analyzed using probit analysis. Extract constituents   of CNSL and Water Soluble Extract of SoapNut fruit (WSEoSN) were  investigated using Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) method. The effect of CNSL as larvicides against third instar larvae of <em>Ae. aegypti </em>with were LC<sub>50</sub> of 14,12 ppm, while the LC<sub>90</sub> of 24,85 ppm.</p>
