The cutting fluid is too thin, let's get some thickener!
November 19, 2021
When the cutting fluid is sheared at high speed, if the cutting fluid is too dilute, and the heat generated during metal cutting is large, the heat transfer effect of the cutting fluid is poor, which will cause the temperature of the cutting zone to be too high and cause thermal deformation, which will affect the machining accuracy of the workpiece. , Poor lubricity will cause adhesion and wear of the moving parts of the machine tool, and also cause rust on the overlapping surface of the tool. The quality of the tool is very unsatisfactory, the viscosity is not enough, and the sagging is serious, which affects the demoulding effect and spraying. You can add Cutting fluid thickener to solve this problem.
Due to the high cost of cutting fluid, many manufacturers will reduce the input of active ingredients to reduce costs. The viscosity of the cutting fluid formulation is too low, resulting in poor lubricity, which will cause adhesion and wear of the moving parts of the machine tool, and insufficient viscosity will affect the transmission power and signal of the product. , Unqualified product quality and raw materials splashing all over the floor and other undesirable situations occur. There is a cutting fluid thickener specially developed and designed for cutting fluid problems. This thickener is a non-ionic associative thickening rheological agent modified by a hydrophobic group. It has excellent medium-shear viscosity thickening effect, rheology and leveling properties, good film-forming properties and gloss properties. At the same time, it has obvious effects on reducing costs, saving energy, reducing environmental pollution and ensuring production safety. It has the characteristics of high temperature resistance, shear resistance, and is not affected by temperature and stirring and shear. Adding a small amount to the emulsion can quickly achieve the purpose of thickening. The cutting fluid thickener can be used as a selective thickening or synergistic thickening agent for metal cutting fluids. The addition amount is 0.2%-1.0% of the total formula. The addition amount depends on the material system, please test out the specific addition amount before use.
