Manufacturer's description

The Prosol Series comprises two emulsifiable rolling oils. Prosol NT 70 is based on high quality mineral oils with specially selected, high-temperature-stable additives, forming a milky white emulsion in water. Prosol 44 W is a water-soluble oil recommended for hot rolling aluminium and aluminium alloys, giving a milky-white oil-in-water emulsion whose stability balance is optimised for high rolling performance, excellent surface finish and minimised oil consumption per tonne rolled; its neat concentrate is made from solvent-refined mineral oil with a high content of rolling-active compounds and lubricity additives. Prosol NT 70 is used across a wide range of metal forming and cutting operations, including rolling of copper, copper alloys and mild steel, hydroforming of copper and brass, belt grinding of stainless steel strips, and milling, turning or drilling of steel, copper and aluminium, typically at 5-10 vol% concentration in water. Prosol 44 W is used for hot rolling of aluminium and aluminium alloys on reversible 2-high/4-high breakdown mills, finishing tandem mills and combination mills, at emulsion strengths of 3-7%, with demineralized water recommended for top-up and fresh emulsion preparation, mixing at 15-25 degrees C, and the oil concentrate always added to the water phase. Key benefits of Prosol NT 70 include versatility across many operations, long service life with proper maintenance, corrosion protection, and EP additives for higher load-carrying capacity. Prosol 44 W offers good lubricating and wetting properties enabling high reduction ratios at high rolling speeds, excellent surface finish, low rolling force and reduced mill power consumption, a short break-in period, ready separation of fines and tramp oil, high resistance to bacterial degradation, and long emulsion service life. No formal specification or approval codes are listed on the datasheet.

Applications

  • Prosol NT 70: Prosol NT 70 is a versatile product which is used in a wide range of metal forming and cutting operations such as: • Rolling of copper, copper alloys, and mild steel. • Hydroforming of copper and brass. • Grinding of stainless steel strips in belt grinding machines. • Cutting (milling, turning, drilling) of metals (Steel, Copper, Aluminium). The recommended concentration in water depends on severity of operation but is usually in the range of 5 to 10 vol. %. Prosol 44W: Prosol 44 W is recommended for hot rolling of aluminium and aluminium alloys on breakdown reversible 2-high / 4-high mills, finishing tandem mills and on combination mills. Emulsion strength varies between 3 to 7% depending upon the surface finish targeted, the rolling speed and the reduction involved. Demineralized water is recommended for daily top-up and fresh emulsion preparation for maximum charge life and excellent surface finish. Mixing temperatures are not critical but for best results the neat oil and water should be at room temperature between 15 and 25°C. Always add the oil concentrate to the water phase and not vice versa.

Performance & benefits

  • Prosol NT 70: Some of the features and potential benefits offered by this oil are: • Versatile product for use in many operations. • Long service life may be achieved with proper maintenance. • Protection against corrosion. • EP additives providing higher load carrying capacity. Prosol 44 W: Some of the features and potential benefits offered by this oil are: • Good lubricating properties of the emulsion allow high reduction ratio at high rolling speed. • Good wetting ability of the emulsion. • Excellent surface finish quality. • Balanced fatty acid and lubricity agent contents for improved rolling performance. • Low rolling force required. • Reduced mill power consumption. • Increased mill flexibility : higher reduction ratio, higher rolling speed. • Short break-in period means optimum emulsion particle size distribution and lubricity level are even obtained with fresh emulsion. • Ready separation of fines and tramp oil from the emulsion in order to minimise stains. • High lubricity level to reduce 'pick-up' tendency. • High resistance to bacteria degradation. • Long emulsion service life. • Improved production and reduced costs increases operation profit.
