Abstract
Abstract Present work investigates the effect of alumina/graphene (GnP) hybrid nanoparticle additives on tribological properties of lubricant as cutting fluid in turning of AISI 304 steel. The hybrid nano-lubricant has been developed in different volumetric concentrations (0.25, 0.75 and 1.25 vol%). The tribology and wettability testing of lubricants confirm that wear and friction coefficient reduces with an increase of nanoparticle concentration. The hybrid nanofluid has shown the lowest pin wear and friction coefficient. The performance of hybrid nano-lubricant have been compared with the alumina nanofluid. The results establish that mixing of GnP with alumina enhanced its tribological properties. The developed hybrid nano-lubricant significantly reduced the tool flank wear and nodal temperature by 12.29% and 5.79%, respectively compare to alumina based lubricant.
