A lubricant that can be used in place of mineral oils in the metal-forming industry.
Mineral oils, which are made from crude oil through a process called distillation, are essential to the success of the metal forming and working industries. Today, AFULudine offers a new way to plan these metal forming operations. In fact, by using non-toxic molecules with good tribological properties as a surface treatment, the user can now re-design production processes to make them simpler, safer, and more efficient, with higher productivity and no environmental risks. This solution gives industry an option that is safer for the environment and doesn’t harm people.
