Aside from the primary function of friction and wear control, lubricating oils are often called on to serve other purposes, such as corrosion prevention, electrical insulation, power transmission and cooling. This last is particularly important in metal cutting and grinding.

Poly(alkylene glycol)s are also used as lubricity additives ia water-based synthetic cutting and grinding fluids (36), and ia aqueous metalworking fluids. Under the high frictional heating at the tool or die contact with the workpiece, the polyalkylene glycol comes out of solution ia fine droplets which coat the hot metal surfaces. 

Composites. Another type of electro deposit in commercial use is the composite form, in which insoluble materials are codeposited along with the electro-deposited metal or alloy to produce particular desirable properties. Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) particles are codeposited with nickel to improve lubricity (see Lubrication and lubricants). SiHcon carbide and other hard particles including diamond are co-deposited with nickel to improve wear properties or to make cutting and grinding tools (see Carbides Tool materials). 

The nitrides reviewed here are those which are commonly produced by CVD. They are similar in many respects to the carbides reviewed in Ch. 9. They are hard and wear-resistant and have high melting points and good chemical resistance. They include several of the refractory-metal (interstitial) nitrides and three covalent nitrides those of aluminum, boron, and silicon. Most are important industrial materials and have a number of major applications in cutting and grinding tools, wear surfaces, semiconductors, and others. Their development is proceeding at a rapid pace and CVD is a major factor in their growth. 

The mineral corundum provides a good example. Corundum is an extremely hard substance. Small bits of corundum are part of the rock called emery which has been used since ancient times as an abrasive, to cut and grind metal and stone. Pure corundum is still used for this purpose today. Another property of corundum is that it remains solid and stable at very high temperatures, well past the melting point of iron. Therefore, masses of small corundum crystals pressed together are shaped into alumina firebricks, crucibles, and other apparatus to use in furnaces. Corundum is also the basis of several gemstones. 

Use Abrasive for cutting and grinding metals, grinding wheels, refractory in nonferrous metallurgy, ceramic industry and boiler furnaces, composite tubes for steam reforming operations. Fibrous form used in filament-wound structures and heat-resistant, high-strength composites. 

OTHER COMMENTS used as an abrasive for cutting and grinding metals used in polishing glass and granite utilized in the manufacture of porcelain, shoe soles, refractor brick, emery paper, and furnace linings used in anti-skid pavements useful in semiconductor technology.

Drift and Mist Control. The pseudoplastic properties of PEO solutions reduce mist formation during spraying of aqueous solutions that contain PEO. This property is used in metal-working fluids to lower worker exposure to mists from the cutting and grinding aids. PEO may also be used to focus the spraying area of herbicides and water-based coatings. 

Ceramic materials that contain alumina and silicon carbide are extremely rigid and are used to sand various surfaces, cut metals, polish, and grind.
