Abstract
The increase in awareness of environmental issues and economic concerns has enabled the emergence of sustainable machining termed Minimum Quantity Lubrication (MQL). However, the extreme conditions of high-speed cutting hard-to-cut materials have posed new challenges for MQL machining. Thus, the Nano MQL (NMQL) is introduced. In this research, hybrid SiO₂:TiO₂ nanoparticles are dispersed in a biodegradable base oil, and the stability, thermo-physical properties, and tribological perspectives are comprehensively investigated. Five volume concentrations of hybrid SiO₂:TiO₂ nanolubricants ranging from 0.01 % to 0.1 % volume concentration were investigated and compared against the base oil. In summary, 0.1 vol% hybrid SiO₂:TiO₂ in biodegradable base oil has demonstrated characteristics of potential advanced lubrication in MQL machining application
期刊介绍:
Tribology is the science of rubbing surfaces and contributes to every facet of our everyday life, from live cell friction to engine lubrication and seismology. As such tribology is truly multidisciplinary and this extraordinary breadth of scientific interest is reflected in the scope of Tribology International.
Tribology International seeks to publish original research papers of the highest scientific quality to provide an archival resource for scientists from all backgrounds. Written contributions are invited reporting experimental and modelling studies both in established areas of tribology and emerging fields. Scientific topics include the physics or chemistry of tribo-surfaces, bio-tribology, surface engineering and materials, contact mechanics, nano-tribology, lubricants and hydrodynamic lubrication.
