Abstract

Machining quality depends on numerous factors such as speed, feed rate, quality of the materials, the cutting fluids used and so on. The quality of machining components can also be improved by using appropriate cutting fluids. In this study, the three different types of eco-friendly cutting fluids based on coconut oil with nano boric acid particles were synthesized with nanoadditives and characterized during the lathe-turning operation of mild steel. The obtained results were compared between the dry/plain turning (without the cutting fluid) and the turning with the cutting fluids like coconut oil and mineral oil with nanoparticles. In industries, a wide variety of cutting fluids are used; however, most of these cutting fluids are made up of synthetic materials which may affect the environment significantly. Hence, it is essential to develop eco-friendly cutting fluids for environmental sustainability. Here, the cutting fluids were characterized by the morphological study on nanoparticles (400nm) and the machined surface using scanning electron microscope (SEM), viscosity test, flash and fire point, surface roughness on machined part, tool tip-workpiece interface temperature, cutting force and flank wear measurement. The results showed that cutting fluids with 0.5% of boric acid had better performance.
