Do all emulsifiable cutting fluids have the same features? Can we categorize them?
Emulsifiable cutting fluids are formulized with different features in order to obtain intended performance. These products have a wide range of application fields. In some cases lubrication is most important, in some cases refrigeration is important and during operations where thin shavings form, detergency feature is important. In order to answer various needs emulsifiable fluids are produced in various groups such as neat oils, emulsions (boron oils), half synthetical products and synthetical products. NEAT CUTTING OILS These oils are used free of water in applications where lubrication necessity is greater than refrigeration necessity. They consist of either one or more compounds of fossil, animal, sea or vegetable oils. It is the predominantly used oil in formulating mineral cutting oils. On the other hand application field of pure mineral oils is limited to highly workable metals (e.g. aluminum, brass, magnesium) and a few processes of steel. Pure usage of mineral oil provides onl
