There is increasing pressure on manufacturers, including the sheet metal forming industry, to use less toxic, water-based lubricants with a number of common additives being banned or being phased out internationally. In the case of automotive manufacturers, this is combined with demand for alternative sheet materials to reduce costs or cater for export markets. Efficient development of new lubricants or replacement additives requires a comprehensive understanding of the interactions between lubricant components and the surface of the sheet metal. This project will explore and model these interactions and how they are affected by the variables in a metal forming process.

包括金属板成形行业在内的制造商面临越来越大的压力，要求他们使用毒性较小的水基润滑剂，其中一些常见的添加剂在国际上被禁止或逐步淘汰。在汽车制造商的情况下，这与对替代板材的需求相结合，以降低成本或满足出口市场。有效开发新的润滑剂或替代添加剂需要全面了解润滑剂组分与金属板表面之间的相互作用。该项目将探索和模拟这些相互作用，以及它们如何受到金属成形过程中变量的影响。
