This project aims to develop an oil free aqueous lubricant for cold rolling to replace the existing oil-in-water emulsion. The lubricant will be molecularly engineered to combine synergy between nanomechanics and tribochemistry of boundary additives to deliver integrated functionalities in the strip rolling. During cold rolling , lubricant starvation often occurs at high speed and it has restricted the productivity of the rolling mill and affected the strip gauge and surface quality. Expected outcomes of this project include an innovative oil free lubricant with significant environmental benefits and an ability for manufacturers to improve productivity by operating at higher speeds, lower costs, and achieve superior strip surface quality.

本项目旨在开发一种用于冷轧的无油水性润滑剂，以取代现有的水包油乳液。该润滑剂将被分子工程化，以联合收割机之间的纳米力学和边界添加剂的摩擦化学协同作用，以提供在带材轧制的综合功能。在冷轧过程中，高速轧制时经常出现缺油现象，严重制约了轧机的生产率，影响了板厚和表面质量。该项目的预期成果包括一种创新的无油润滑剂，具有显著的环境效益，并使制造商能够通过更高的速度、更低的成本和实现上级带材表面质量来提高生产率。
