Abstract:Metalworking fluids (MWFs) play a crucial role in machining processes by lubricating and cooling cutting tools, reducing friction, and improving overall machining efficiency. These fluids can be classified into various types, including cutting oils, water-based fluids, and semi-synthetic or synthetic fluids. Cutting oils are often mineral-based, providing excellent lubrication in heavy-duty applications. Water-based fluids, on the other hand, are more environmentally friendly and commonly used in light to mode… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
