“…Friction could be lowered by separating the contact surfaces [83]. Lubricants introduced at the contact surfaces serve as contact separators and load bearers, as shown in Figure 6 [ [84][85][86]. Regardless of the rolling type, the lubricant mitigates friction and wear rate [56].…”

The purpose of the present article is to dispense an extensive review of research works performed to observe the impacts of nanoparticles tribologically and rationalise the use of nanoparticles in metal rolling lubrication. The results of past experimental research were analysed based on tribological behaviour, lubricant characteristics, and rolling quality. Improvements in tribological behaviour, rolled surface characteristics and mechanical strength were illustrated in the present work. A specific concentration of nanoparticles in the base lubricant was discovered which provided beneficial outcomes. The oxide scale formed as an inevitable byproduct is suppressed by the nano-application. The nanoparticles served better in the rolling process in terms of temperature control due to the enhanced thermal conductivity of the base lubricant. The article advocates for the adoption of nanolubrication in replacement of traditional lubricating fluids in the rolling process. The article lastly presents future challenges and the potential of nanolubricants in engineering applications.

“…Furthermore, analysis of response parameters shows that concentration of nanoparticles lowers the torque that can also reduce the power consumption. Mosleh et al [102] investigated the performance of different nanofluids during extreme pressure (EP) test and drilling process. The samples were prepared by mixing of nanodiamond and molybdenum disulfide (MoS 2 ) nanoparticles in alcohol-based water (Boelube 70104).…”

“…Mao et al [120] studied the effect of Al 2 O 3 nanofluid by using the minimum quantity lubrication technique on the machining process. The experimental setup and grinding parameters were similar to those used in Mao et al in [99,102]. During the grinding, an enormous amount of heat is generated in dry condition.…”

In metal removal processes, the role of cooling and lubricating fluid is very crucial for improving the performance of machining. When metallic and non-metallic nanoparticles (less than 100 nm) are added to the base fluid, it is termed as a nanofluid. Due to excellent heat-carrying capacity, lubrication and rheological properties, nanofluids have gained immense importance for growing research activities. Researchers are also exploring synthesis and newer application of nanofluids. In the process, scientists are trying to develop new types of nano-cutting fluids, which are economic and eco-friendly. In this connection, investigations are also underway to find out possible mechanisms for improving cooling and lubricating properties of nanofluids. This paper presents a summary of published literature on the application of nano-enriched cutting fluid in various conventional metal removal processes, such as turning, milling, drilling and grinding. This paper also discusses the effects of different nano-enriched cutting fluids on various metal removal processes and factors influencing their process performance.

“…Nanofluids as colloidal dispersions of various nanoparticles in a base cutting fluid have been examined for machining operations such as milling, drilling, grinding, and turning [13,14]. Since nanofluids containing various oxides, carbides, and carbonic and metallic nanoparticles have exhibited marked enhanced thermal conductivity compared to the base fluid, the cooling functionality of cutting nanofluids in flood lubrication is improved and, therefore, the cutting temperature is reduced [15][16][17]. Nanofluids containing molybdenum disulfide (MoS 2 ), graphite, tungsten disulfide (WS 2 ), and other nanoparticles with a lamellar structure have also exhibited lower friction compared to the base fluid.…”

In minimum quantity lubrication (MQL), an aerosol containing a minimum amount of the cutting fluid is delivered to the tool/workpiece interface during the metal cutting operation. The fluid lubrication by the fluid and the cooling by the compressed air in the aerosol improves the cutting process, while the low consumption rate in MQL provides less cleanup and reduces the associated cost. In this paper, molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) and hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) nanoparticles were added to the aerosol for providing a third functionality to the MQL, which is solid lubrication at the interface. Both orbital drilling and tribological testing using a four-ball tester were studied to examine the effectiveness of solid lubrication in MQL. In orbital drilling of titanium with tungsten carbide tools, MQL with nanofluids containing MoS2 nanoparticles resulted in less transfer film buildup on the tool. In four-ball testing, MQL with nanofluids with MoS2 and hBN nanoparticles yielded lower surface temperatures and less variation of frictional torques in titanium.
