Toxicity Analysis of Nano-Minimum Quantity Lubrication Machining—A Review

The lubrication properties of nanoparticles are great interest to the manufacturing industry and led development nano-minimum quantity (NMQL) cooling strategy. To evaluate sustainability characteristics lubrication, apart from analyzing benefits increasing machining efficiency, it is also essential potential detrimental effects on human health environment. Existing literature provides substantial data machining. However, current does not provide researchers in sector a comprehensive analysis toxicity used lubrication. This study aims review that addresses levels most frequently NMQL understand impacts body environment, vitro studies nanoparticles’ cells vitro/in vivo other living organisms considered. results each chosen summarized presented chronological order. reviewed indicate transition metal dichalcogenides (MoS2 WS2) exhibit very low when compared nanoparticles. hBN AL2O3 varies depending their lengths crystalline structures, respectively. In conclusion, chart maps seven different cell lines (human lung epithelial (A549), bronchial (Nl-20), AGS gastric cells, epidermal (HEK), liver-derived (HepG2), endothelial peripheral cells), representing exposures by inhalation, ingestion dermal contact, was developed for easy quick insights. first attempt open combine experimental investigations nanoparticles, allowing make informed decisions selection sustainable process.
