Eco-Friendly, Non-Toxic Cutting Fluid for Sustainable Manufacturing and Machining Processes

Mineral oils, chemically synthesized emulsifiers, and additives are the basic ingredients of commercially available metal working fluids. Its application in metal cutting have earned widespread acceptance all over the world. However, their harmful effects on the environment and life threatening heal...

description Mineral oils, chemically synthesized emulsifiers, and additives are the basic ingredients of commercially available metal working fluids. Its application in metal cutting have earned widespread acceptance all over the world.

In this present study a green metalworking fluid / green cutting fluid (GCF) was formulated and the performance was evaluated comparing with the commercial metal working fluid (COM) used in industries for machining processes.
