[0004] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2005-272818 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]
[0005] In recent years, the performance requirements for metalworking fluids have been increasing, and conventional metalworking fluids have room for improvement in terms of tool life, flash point, etc. In particular, if a metalworking fluid has a sufficiently high flash point (e.g., 200°C or higher), tool life tends to be insufficient.
[0006] Therefore, a main object of the present invention is to provide a metalworking oil composition that has a sufficiently high flash point and is capable of extending tool life. [Means for solving the problem]
[0007] According to the investigations of the present inventors, it has been found that by combining a predetermined lubricating base oil, a thiophosphate ester, and an acidic phosphate ester, it is possible to achieve both a high level of flash point and a high level of tool life, and this has led to the completion of the present invention.
[0008] The present invention provides a metalworking oil composition. The metalworking oil composition contains a first ester, which is an ester of a saturated fatty acid and an alcohol; a second ester, which is an ester of an unsaturated fatty acid and an alcohol; a lubricating base oil containing at least one oil selected from the group consisting of mineral oils and synthetic oils other than esters; a thiophosphate ester; and an acidic phosphate ester. This metalworking oil composition has a sufficiently high flash point and can extend tool life.
[0009] The iodine value of the lubricating base oil is preferably 50 g I / 100 g or less. In this specification, the iodine value refers to the iodine value measured in accordance with JIS K 0070:1992 "Testing methods for acid value, saponification value, ester value, iodine value, hydroxyl value and unsaponifiable matter of chemical products." The iodine value is an index showing the degree of unsaturation derived from the second ester.
[0010] The total content of the first ester and the second ester is preferably 50 to 90 mass % based on the total amount of the lubricating base oil.
[0011] The mineral oil is preferably a Group III mineral oil of the API base oil classification.
[0012] The metalworking oil composition preferably has a kinematic viscosity at 40°C of 30 mm 2 In this specification, the 40°C kinematic viscosity and the 100°C kinematic viscosity refer to the kinematic viscosities measured in accordance with JIS K2283:2000.
[0013] The flash point of the metal working oil composition is preferably not less than 200° C. In this specification, the flash point means the flash point measured in accordance with JIS K2265-4:2007. [Effects of the Invention]
[0014] According to the present invention, there is provided a metalworking oil composition which has a sufficiently high flash point and is capable of extending tool life. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0015] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail, but the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments.
[0016] In this specification, a numerical range indicated using "to" indicates a range that includes the numerical values before and after "to" as the minimum and maximum values, respectively. In numerical ranges described in stages in this specification, the upper or lower limit of a numerical range in one stage may be replaced with the upper or lower limit of a numerical range in another stage. Furthermore, in numerical ranges described in this specification, the upper or lower limit of that numerical range may be replaced with a value shown in an example.
[0017] In this specification, unless otherwise specified, the materials exemplified below may be used alone or in combination of two or more within the range that meets the conditions. When the metal working oil composition contains multiple substances corresponding to each component, the content of each component in the metal working oil composition means the total amount of the multiple substances present in the metal working oil composition, unless otherwise specified.
[0018] In this specification, "skin sensitization" refers to a condition in which repeated contact with a substance causes the substance to act as an antigen, resulting in the production of antibodies in the body and an allergic reaction. This is a different concept from skin irritation, which is a condition in which a substance comes into contact with the skin and causes a direct toxic reaction on the skin, resulting in inflammation, etc.

[0036] From the viewpoint of further reducing the viscosity of the metal working oil composition, the second ester is preferably (i) an ester of a monobasic acid and a monohydric alcohol or (ii) an ester of a monobasic acid and a polyhydric alcohol.
[0037] The iodine value of the total amount of the second ester is not particularly limited, but is preferably 10 gI2 / 100 g or more, more preferably 30 gI2 / 100 g or more, even more preferably 50 gI2 / 100 g or more, and is preferably 140 gI2 / 100 g or less, more preferably 120 gI2 / 100 g or less, even more preferably 100 gI2 / 100 g or less.

[0041] The total content of the first ester and the second ester is preferably 50 to 90 mass% based on the total amount of the lubricating base oil.

[0053] The iodine value of the lubricating base oil can be adjusted to fall within the above range by, for example, reducing the proportion of the second ester (increasing the proportion of the first ester, mineral oil, or synthetic oil other than ester), or by using a second ester with a lower iodine value.
