Especially in environmentally sensitive areas such as the Taihu Lake basin, problems such as cyanobacterial blooms have led to mandatory requirements for phosphorus-free lubricating materials, which directly forces the machining industry to innovate technologically.

[0003] Traditional superfinishing fluids typically rely on extreme pressure agents and lubricants containing sulfur, phosphorus, and chlorine to achieve their processing performance. While these additives can effectively improve lubrication, they also have drawbacks such as significant environmental pollution, strong equipment corrosiveness, and harm to operator health. Summary of the Invention

[0009] A preferred method for preparing an environmentally friendly multilayer lubricating superfine fluid includes the following steps: S1. Preparation of a multilayer lubricating structure precursor; S2. Formation of a dense passivation film; S3. Preparation of nanoscale stable emulsions; S4. Special ester compounds are synthesized by immobilized lipase catalysis and then mixed with other components to obtain the final product.

[0010] Preferably, in the preparation process of the multilayer lubricating structure precursor, nano-sized polyether ester and modified silicate are stirred and mixed at 80°C for 2 hours, and then homogenized 5 times at 100MPa pressure for 3 minutes each time to form a multilayer lubricating structure with a particle size of 50-100nm.

The multi-layered lubrication structure and the formation of a dense passivation film effectively reduce equipment wear and corrosion, extending equipment lifespan. The application of nano-level stable emulsion and self-healing lubrication film improves processing accuracy and efficiency, and reduces production costs.

[0015] In practical applications, bearing parts of the same specifications and materials were selected and processed using both traditional ultra-precision fluid and the environmentally friendly multi-layer lubricating ultra-precision fluid of this invention.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention. The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Example

[0019] The specific usage of each raw material, by weight percentage, is as follows: To prepare 1000g of environmentally friendly multilayer lubricating superfine fluid, prepare 420g of nano-grade polyether ester with a purity of 99.5% and a viscosity of 75±5mPa·s; 130g of modified silicate obtained by reacting sodium silicate with an organosilicon coupling agent; 70g of tetraammonium ethylenediaminetetraacetate with a purity of 99%; 45g of 8-hydroxyquinoline with a purity of 98%; 22g of sodium dihydrogen phosphate; 17g of disodium hydrogen phosphate; 10g of Novozym435 immobilized lipase; 100g of auxiliary lubricant; and 186g of deionized water. Example

[0020] Based on the mass percentage of each raw material in Example 1, a low-foaming grinding fluid was prepared: In preparing the multilayer lubricating structure precursor, the prepared nano-sized polyether ester and modified silicate were added to a reactor equipped with a stirrer and a temperature control device. The stirrer was turned on, and the mixture was stirred and mixed at 80°C for 2 hours to ensure thorough and uniform mixing. After stirring, the mixture was homogenized five times at 100 MPa pressure using a high-pressure homogenizer, with each homogenization lasting 3 minutes. This homogenization process resulted in a multilayer lubricating structure precursor with a particle size of 75 nm.

[0021] Weigh out tetraammonium ethylenediaminetetraacetate and 8-hydroxyquinoline, and dissolve them in an appropriate amount of deionized water to prepare a solution. Immerse the workpiece to be treated in the prepared solution, and then place the reaction system in a constant temperature water bath at 60°C for 30 minutes to allow the organic ammonium carboxylate and metal chelating agent to form a gradient slow-release system on the workpiece surface. After 30 minutes, remove the workpiece and immerse it in a pH buffer solution prepared with sodium dihydrogen phosphate and disodium hydrogen phosphate for 10 minutes to form a dense passivation film on the workpiece surface.

[0022] The multilayer lubricating component precursor and other auxiliary lubricants (4.0% fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether AEO-9 selected here) were mixed evenly at a mass ratio of 17:3. The mixed lubricating component and other auxiliary lubricants were added to a high-pressure shear emulsifier, and the mixture was cooled to 40°C by circulating water bath, and then transferred to the high-pressure shear emulsifier. The mixture was treated in the high-pressure shear emulsifier at a pressure of 50 MPa and a shear rate of 10,000 rpm for 15 minutes to form a nanoscale stable emulsion with a particle size of 150 nm.

[0023] Using stearic acid as a fatty acid precursor, a certain amount of stearic acid and Novozym435 immobilized lipase were added to a reaction vessel and reacted at 50°C for 24 hours to synthesize ethyl stearate. The amount of Novozym435 immobilized lipase was adjusted appropriately according to the reaction scale and enzyme activity. The prepared nanoscale stable emulsion, the synthesized ethyl stearate, and other possible additives were thoroughly mixed at a stirring speed of 300 rpm to obtain an environmentally friendly multilayer lubricating superfine liquid.

[0024] Finished product testing phase: The friction coefficient of the prepared environmentally friendly multilayer lubricating super-precision fluid was tested using a ring-block friction testing machine. The test conditions were: load of 100 N, rotation speed of 200 rpm, and test time of 60 minutes. The friction coefficient was recorded every 5 minutes. The results showed that the friction coefficient remained stable between 0.04 and 0.05, significantly lower than the friction coefficient of traditional super-precision fluids (0.1-0.15). This indicates that the super-precision fluid of this invention has excellent lubrication properties and can effectively reduce friction during processing.

[0025] A 45# steel workpiece coated with an environmentally friendly multi-layer lubricating super-precision fluid was placed in a neutral salt spray test chamber and subjected to a 72-hour continuous spray test according to GB / T10125-2012 standard. After the test, the workpiece was removed and its surface was visually inspected; no rust was observed. In contrast, workpieces not coated with this super-precision fluid showed significant rust after 24 hours under the same test conditions. This demonstrates that the super-precision fluid of this invention possesses excellent rust-preventive properties and can provide long-term effective protection for the workpiece.

[0026] The prepared environmentally friendly multilayer lubricating superfluid was tested for sulfur, phosphorus, and chlorine content. Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) was used for detection. The results showed that the sulfur, phosphorus, and chlorine contents were all below the detection limit (<1 ppm), fully complying with international environmental standards. This indicates that the superfluid of this invention is a truly environmentally friendly lubricating material.

[0027] Although embodiments of the invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
