The invention discloses a steel cord drawing
lubricant and a preparation method thereof, belonging to the filed of lubricants for metals. The
lubricant is prepared from the following components by weight percent: 7-15% of oil additives, 8-10% of surface
active agent, 7-10% of extreme pressure additives, 3-6% of
solid additives, and the
balance water and one or more of antirust additive,
preservative, antifoaming agent or bactericide. The preparation method comprises the following steps: 1) weighting the oil additives, the surface
active agent, the extreme pressure additives and the
solid additive according to the weight proportion, mixing, heating to 140-150 DEG C, and mixing fully; 2) adding water (water percent), mixing, heating to 80-90 DEG C and mixing fully; and 3) mixing and dissolving the obtained mixture, and emulsifying fully, thus obtaining a homogeneous liquid, namely the end product. The
lubricant has the characteristics of good lubricating effect, low consumption, high drawing speed, smooth
steel tube surface, good quality, no
corrosion and damage to pipelines and devices and quite low cost, and can ensure that the steel cord
coating is undamaged, and the
adhesive force between the steel cord and the rubber is enhanced.
