An Evaluation of the Colloidal Stability of Metalworking Fluid

open access: yes, 2005
Metalworking fluids are used for cooling, lubrication, and corrosion control in the metal products industry. As of the mid-2000s, many manufacturers were using filtration or centrifugal systems to remove impurities from metalworking fluids to recycle ...

Vaporization and Conversion of Ethanolamines used in Metalworking Operations

open access: yesSafety and Health at Work, 2010
Objectives: This study examined how ethanolamines (EAs) with the same functional alcohol group (HOCH2CH2), such as mono-EA (MEA), di-EA (DEA), and tri-EA (TEA), in water-based metalworking fluids (wbMWFs) are vaporized, condensed, and transformed by heat

The Role of Surfactant Structure on the Development of a Sustainable and Effective Cutting Fluid for Machining Titanium Alloys

open access: yesMetals, 2020
In cutting operations of titanium alloys, most of the problems are related to the high consumption of cutting tools due to excessive wear. An improvement of metalworking fluid (MWF) technology would increase the productivity, sustainability, and quality ...

Metalworking Fluid Hand Dermatitis.

open access: yesINDUSTRIAL HEALTH, 2002
In a household appliance plant, several rinse-free lubricating fluids have been used instead of neat mineral oils since 1994: mixtures of isoparaffinic hydrocarbons with 9 to 14 carbons per molecule. As such they denature keratin, irritate and defat the skin, and remove water from it.

The Effect of Chip Adsorption on Selective Depletion from a MultiComponent Synthetic Metalworking Fluid

open access: yes, 2003
Some metalworking fluids are designed to coat the surfaces of newly machined metal with rust inhibitors. At some point, these inhibitors are expected to become depleted in the metalworking fluid.
