Cutting fluids benefits

These combined effects raise the temperature of the tool, workpiece and chip to a level that would be unacceptable in most operations if it were not for the presence of cutting fluid. Since the cooling effect is the greatest benefit, cutting fluids are widely known as coolants . In... 

Cutting fluids provide benefits such as extended tool life, dimensional accuracy and good surface finish, all of which contribute to high rates of production. Almost invariably, the coolant that adheres to workpieces is relied on to protect ferrous components against corrosion while they are waiting further machining or assembly operations. 

Micellar copper particles (and copper oxide) can give maximum benefit when used as multifunctional additives in liquid lubricants or greases, internal-combustion (IC) engines, fuels, cutting fluids, and hydraulic fluids. 

Use of borate-cross-linked HPG as viscosilier in water-based muds for use in drilling deviated horizontal wells benefits include the ability to delay development of gelling and drill cuttings suspension power until the fluid is in place and the use of pH reduction to lower fluid viscosity at the surface and facilitate cuttings recovery.
