Comparative study on the performance of the MQL nanolubricant and conventional flood lubrication techniques during grinding of Si3N4 ceramic

Silicon nitride (Si 3 N 4 ) ceramic is highly desired in various engineering applications due to its exceptional properties. However, machining the Si 3 N 4 ceramic suffers setbacks due to various degrees of damage inflicted on the ceramic during machining. Studies have shown that the minimum quanti...
