▎ 摘  要

To propose an environment benign process; the surface grinding of 'Ti-6A1-4V-ELI' was carried out under 20 different grinding-environments viz, dry grinding, conventional flood cooling using synthetic fluid and minimum quantity lubrication (MQL) using three types of biodegradable vegetable oils (with and without graphene nanoplatelets). Due to the unique properties of graphene nano-additives viz, exceptionally high thermal conductivity, superoleophilic nature, adsorption phenomena, large surface area (200 m(2)/g), interlayer shearability and polar bonding of vegetable oils; a synergistic lubrication film was developed that had exhibited excellent grinding performance. The 1.5 wt% graphene in canola oil-based MQL had resulted in 16.9%, 22.1%, 33.83% and 15.1% reduced values of surface roughness (R-a), grinding force (F-n), specific grinding energy and coefficient-of-friction in comparison to conventional flood cooling.
