TL;DR: In this article, two different diesel fuels were blended with the biodiesels produced from six different vegetable oils (sunflower, canola, soybean, cottonseed, corn oils and waste palm oil), and the key fuel properties such as density and viscosities of the blends were measured by following ASTM test methods.

TL;DR: In this article, the basic properties of several palm oil biodiesel-diesel fuel blends were measured according to the corresponding ASTM standards, and mixing rules were evaluated as a function of the volume fraction of biodiesel in the blend.

TL;DR: Tate et al. as mentioned in this paper used the Arrhenius equations to predict the viscosities of the pure Biodiesel (B100), no. 2 diesel fuel (B0), and the biodiesel blends (B80, B60, B40, and B20) as a function of temperature.
