In other to minimize environmental pollution, green additives prepared from bio-source with low cost and multi-functional applications have driven considerable attention in the field of lube oil industry. In this research, Neem oil was extracted using n-hexane as a solvent and some amount of Neem oil has mixed with turmeric rhizome (Antioxidant) to ascertain its oxidative stability and it was examined by FT-IR analysis. Copolymer derived from Neem oil and acrylonitrile was prepared by direct polymerization through the double bond of the fatty acid chain in the present of free radical initiator led to the formation of environmentally friendly Copolymeric based additives. The prepared Copolymer have been characterized by routine spectroscopic analysis. The rheological behavior and performance evaluation of the lube oil were examined in different concentration of additive Viz. 1% 2% 3% (w/v). However, the green additive act as good pour points depressant improver to the lube oil. The values of pour point for the lube oil blended with different prepared Copolymeric additives ranging from (9 to -110C). Thus, bio-based oil derived additive can be considered as a good alternative to be used in lube oil formulation.
