Common additives for metal working fluids (MWFs)

Functions of Metal Working Fluid (MWF):

 

lubrication, cooling, chip removal, and rust prevention for metal cutting, grinding, forming, and other metal processing methods.

 

Metal processing fluids are divided into oil-based metalworking fluids and water-based metal-working fluids as per the base fluid.
