Study of the effect of Vegetable oil based cutting fluid on machining characteristics of AISI 316L Steel

Emulsion, non-ionic surfactants, VBCF,Abstract
In the present work, properties of the non-ionic surfactants have been identified to formulate vegetable based cutting fluid (VBCF) of castor oil for the formation of emulsion as non –conventional lubricant. The mineral oil based cutting fluid emulsion is also used for turning operation as conventional lubricant. Experimentation has been carried out for different combinations. Cutting fluid, cutting velocity, feed rate and depth of cut are considered as machining parameters. Then machining with conventional and non-conventional lubricants in wet condition has been carried out upon SS 316 L work piece with carbide cutting inserts tool, to evaluate cutting forces and tool wear. The results show that non-conventional lubricant performs better than conventional cuttingfluid.
