Advancements in Turning: Exploring Hybrid Nanofluids and MQL Strategies

This research examines hybrid nanofluids in turning operations using Minimum Quantity Lubrication (MQL), a popular method for improving machining efficiency and sustainability. Hybrid nanofluids have better thermal conductivity, heat transfer, and lubrication than conventional coolants and single-component options. Using hybrid nanofluids with MQL can reduce cutting temperatures, improve surface polish, lengthen tool life, and reduce environmental impact while enhancing material removal rate and coefficient of friction. This research covers recently developed hybrid nanofluid selection criteria, MQL parameter modification, and turning process performance enhancements. Stability, cost, and health hazards are also discussed while using hybrid nanofluids in industry. The data suggest that formulations and deployment techniques require more investigation to ensure widespread acceptance of this promising technology in modern production.
