Development of special lubricant for the zirconium alloy section cold rolling

In order to improve the machining quality and reduce the energy consumption and the abrasion of roller and workpiece in the cold rolling process of zirconium alloy section, a special lubricant was developed. It uses 46# industrial white oil as base oil and the orthogonal decision method to select the appropriate additive formula. The results of physical and chemical properties analysis, rolling simulation test and practical application show that the developed oil can meet the requirements of zirconium alloy section cold rolling process.
