This paper aimed to characterization of like thermal conductivity, viscosity, flash point and fire point tests of CuO based engine oils. CuO based engine oils are synthesized nanoparticles. XRD and TEM analytical techniques are used in preparation in nanoparticles and three different types of (0.1%, 0.2% and 0.5%) mass concentrations of CuO nanoparticles are mixed to commercially available engine oil for the experimental investigations. KD2 pro thermal property analyzer, Redwood Viscometer–I and Cleveland open cup apparatus are used to evaluate quality parameters like thermal conductivity, viscosity, flash and fire point of nanoparticle engine oil.
