Water-Based Micro-Emulsion Compound Agent HD360

Metalworking fluid manufacturers frequently encounter persistent formulation challenges including unstable emulsion homogeneity, insufficient ferrous corrosion protection, limited sump service life and microbial odour accumulation. ROLITOM HD360 water-based micro-emulsion compound agent is a fully integrated additive package engineered to resolve these production bottlenecks for semi-synthetic cutting fluid formulators.

This multi-functional additive package, commercially designated as a compound agent, is formulated with high-performance ferrous rust inhibitors, compound non-ionic emulsifiers, extreme-pressure anti-wear lubricants, pH-stabilized specialty amines and a composite biocide system. When diluted with municipal tap water per standardized proportions, the finished metalworking fluid derived from this compound agent – our complete additive package – forms a homogeneous, phase-stable microemulsion free of oil separation or sediment precipitation.

During metal removal operations, it delivers balanced boundary lubrication, rapid heat dissipation and long-term anti-corrosion protection. This improves dimensional consistency of machined components, reduces consumable tool wear and extends the service lifespan of CNC machine tools. The embedded biocide system suppresses proliferation of anaerobic bacteria and fungi within coolant sumps, drastically lowering the frequency of full fluid replacement for end machining facilities. This compound agent, a non-toxic additive package, complies with global industrial environmental compliance standards and contains no regulated hazardous toxic substances.

Coolants blended from HD360 compound agent – our versatile additive package – are primarily engineered for cast iron machining, while maintaining broad compatibility with most ferrous substrates and select non-ferrous workpieces.

Standard Formulation Matching Ratios

Four mature batching protocols are provided for manufacturers to produce semi-synthetic coolant concentrate using our micro-emulsion compound agent, this all-in-one additive package. Each ratio corresponds to a fixed refractive index benchmark and standardized cast iron corrosion validation criteria for finished stock concentrate.

Critical Formulation Supplementary Note

HD360 compound agent, our standard ferrous-metal targeted additive package, only incorporates anti-corrosion chemistry optimized for cast iron and ferrous alloys, without dedicated passivation additives for aluminum substrates. For formulating coolants intended for aluminum alloy machining, two aluminum anti-tarnish additives must be incorporated during batching: add 1.2% A8 aluminum antioxidant and 1.2% A9 aluminum antioxidant simultaneously to eliminate aluminum surface oxidation, white haze and streaking defects post-machining.

Product Advantages

• Integrated single-bottle formula of this compound agent, complete additive package, streamlines raw material procurement workflows.

  Our HD360 micro-emulsion compound agent functions as a consolidated additive package that unifies emulsification, extreme-pressure lubricity, rust inhibition, pH regulation and microbial control into a single raw material. Fluid manufacturers eliminate the need to source dozens of individual single-function auxiliary additives, simplifying plant batching procedures and cutting raw material inventory overhead and procurement lead times.

• High-stability emulsion system for coolants compounded from this compound agent additive package.

  When HD360 compound agent is blended with tap water following the listed proportional standards, the finished stock concentrate retains uniform liquid morphology during prolonged sealed indoor storage. No oil precipitation, flocculation or layer separation occurs, minimizing product returns and material waste caused by inconsistent coolant quality manufactured from this additive package.

• Dual corrosion protection for machine tool hardware and workpieces delivered by this compound agent additive package.

  High-efficiency ferrous rust inhibitors integrated within the compound agent additive package deliver reliable short-term corrosion protection for cast iron chips, machine castings and internal metallic equipment components under elevated operating temperatures. A robust extreme-pressure lubricating film reduces frictional contact between cutting tools and workpiece surfaces, lowering tool consumption rates and elevating surface finish quality of machined parts.

• Embedded biocide formulation within the compound agent additive package extends coolant sump service life.

  Special composite antimicrobial chemistry contained within this micro-emulsion compound agent additive package suppresses mass proliferation of odour-generating bacteria and fungi inside coolant circulation tanks. It mitigates common workshop pain points including foul odour emission, metallic sludge accumulation and filter cartridge clogging, reducing overall coolant operating expenditure for downstream machining manufacturers.

• Low-toxicity, eco-compliant formula of our compound agent additive package simplifies wastewater treatment workflows.

  HD360 compound agent additive package excludes all highly toxic regulated hazardous chemical components. Coolants manufactured with this compound agent and additive package meet mainstream global industrial wastewater discharge compliance standards; spent working fluid can be processed via conventional industrial wastewater treatment infrastructure without complex hazardous waste handling protocols.

Application Scope

Suitable for turning, milling, drilling, tapping and surface grinding operations on all cast iron workpieces.

FAQ

Q1: Which mixing ratio of HD360 compound agent, our core additive package, is recommended for mass production of general-purpose cast iron cutting fluid?

A1: The 50% HD360 compound agent + 50% tap water formulation is the industry mainstream selection for most metalworking fluid manufacturers. Its refractive index of 45 enables downstream machining customers to rapidly verify working fluid concentration via refractometer testing, balancing raw material input costs and comprehensive anti-rust & lubrication performance of this additive package compound agent.

Q2: Can HD360 compound agent additive package be co-blended with microemulsion raw materials from alternative brands during batching?

A2: Cross-brand co-blending of dissimilar compound agent or additive package products is strictly prohibited. Mismatched emulsifier, amine and biocide chemistries will trigger adverse chemical reactions post-blending, resulting in coolant phase separation, complete loss of corrosion resistance and accelerated microbial odour generation within machine coolant tanks. HD360 compound agent additive package must be deployed as the sole core raw material throughout all batching workflows.

Q3: Why are both A8 and A9 aluminum antioxidants required when formulating aluminum alloy coolant with HD360 compound agent additive package?

A3: The native anti-corrosion chemistry of HD360 compound agent additive package is exclusively engineered for ferrous metal substrates, lacking surface passivation agents formulated for aluminum alloys. Without supplementary aluminum anti-tarnish additives, aluminum blanks will readily develop oxidation streaks and foggy oxide layers post-machining. Simultaneous addition of 1.2% each of A8 and A9 antioxidant forms a uniform protective passivation film on aluminum surfaces to eliminate discoloration defects for coolants manufactured from this compound agent additive package.

Q4: What is the valid storage lifespan for unopened barrels of HD360 compound agent additive package?

A4: Unopened sealed HD360 compound agent additive package stored within dry, shaded indoor warehousing holds a 12-month shelf life. Post barrel opening, prolonged atmospheric exposure will attenuate emulsifier and biocide activity inside the compound agent additive package, therefore full consumption within 3 months is highly advised.

Q5: What metal removal processes are compatible with coolants formulated from HD360 compound agent additive package?

A5: Cutting fluids compounded from HD360 compound agent additive package suit all conventional cast iron machining workflows including turning, milling, drilling, tapping and surface grinding. Following supplementation with matched aluminum anti-oxidant additives, this compound agent additive package is also applicable to rough machining and precision finishing of automotive aluminum wheel blanks, aluminum structural castings and aluminum alloy die cast components.
