Manufacturing industries use cutting fluid in huge quantities. It has been reported multiple times that these conventional cutting fluids are toxic and not safe for humans and the environment. Vegetable oils are a good alternative to conventional cutting fluids. Non-edible oils should be explored for their applicability as cutting fluid. In this re...

Cutting fluids are required for machining operations. However, the constituents of the mineral oil-based cutting fluids used in the industry have carcinogenic effects on the human and a negative impact on the environment. Non-edible vegetable oils can be a good potential to be used as a feasible alternative. A cutting fluid is formulated from non-e...

MQL has gained lot of attention in the past decade owing to its effectiveness over the conventional fluid delivery method. Conventional cutting fluid delivery methods have major drawback of being used in large quantity and dangerous effect on environment and workers health. MQL has emerged as a viable alternate to the conventional fluid delivery me...

Cutting fluids are required in huge amount in the modern machining methods. Cutting fluids are needed for providing lubrication as well as cooling the workpiece during machining. Cutting fluids are made of mineral oils and have many drawbacks including many health hazards and environment impact. Various other methods of cutting fluid delivery are b...

Cutting fluids are important elements of manufacturing industries and are used in large quantities. But its use poses a serious health issue to the surrounding people working in its atmosphere. Hence, the disposal should be only after neutralization thereby protecting worker and aquatic life. This leads to select an optimal alternative that is not...

Cutting fluids are an inherent part of the modern manufacturing system. With the increase in the industrialization and development of new materials and processes, there has been a need for developing new cutting fluids with superior performance. For achieving this, cutting fluids have been produced from mineral oil and other additives. The additive...

Cutting fluids play a major role in the metal industry. They are used for having increased material removal rates and increasing the quality of the machined product.
