Cooling lubrication facts

One example of the effect of such factors is UV inks used in printing, which were the snbject of a scandal early on, the positive evaluation of aqueous systems and bio paints , which were evaluated veiy positively despite their not unproblematic content of vegetable-based solvents. In addition, the comparatively speedy snbstitntion of chlorinated solvents in cleaning processes and formaldehyde separators in cooling lubricants can only in fact be explained by the pubhc-ity-effective scandals relating to chlorinated chemicals or formaldehyde.

Toxicity. This factor is becoming an increasingly important consideration in the design of mechanical seals. Since the rubbing seal faces require liquid penetration to cool and lubricate them, it is reasonable to expect that there will be some vapor passing across the faces. This is in fact the case. A normal seal can be expected to leak from a few ppm to 10 cc/min. It is also generally accepted that the seal leakage rate will increase with speed. 

However, its cooling properties can be utilized when other materials are added to improve machining performance. One of the most common water-based cutting fluids is the so-called soluble oil, which, in fact, is not a true solution but an oiTin-water emulsion in which very fine droplets of oil are suspended in water. Such a fluid has very effective cooling power and the petroleum oil and its additives provide its lubricating and protective properties. 

Workers in contact with industrial mineral oils, e.g. in the metallurgic industry, can develop lesions of folliculitis due to Staphylococcus spp. (Fig. 5). Bacteria that may contaminate used oil are not responsible for the infection. In fact, occlusion of hair follicles by cutting, lubrication and cooling mineral oils may lead to a secondary infection by staphylococci present on the skin of patients.

The Free Volume Theory. The Free Volume Theory is a further extension of the lubricity and gel theories and can be used to explain both external and internal plasticization. Free volume is a measure of the internal space available in a polymer for the movement of the polymer chain, which imparts flexibility to the resin. Plasticizers increase the free volume of the resin and ensure that free volume is maintained as the resin-plasticizer mixture is cooled from the melt, preventing interactions between neighboring polymer chains. For the plasticized resins, free volume can arise from motion of the chain ends, side chains, or the main chain. The fact that free volume increases with molecular motion is useful in explaining internal plasticization achieved by side-chain addition, where each side chain acts as a small molecule and free volume of the system is increased.
