Machining processes are done on a large scale in industries, which calls for savings of both economics and materials. Efficiency is also of great importance, and it depends on choosing appropriate cutting tools to cutting fluid. Cutting fluid improves tool life and maintains surface roughness by cooling the tool and workpiece. Reduction in consumption of cutting fluids can be achieved by minimum quantity lubrication and minimum quantity cooling lubrication, which are examples for the application of cutting fluid which is economically more suitable than mist and wet application of cutting fluids.
Cutting Tools and Materials

Cutting fluids are the fluids that are specifically designed for use as either a coolant or lubricant (or both) in machining operations. They are used in machining operations for a variety of reasons, including (a) to cool the tool and work, (b) to reduce friction between tool and chip interface resulting in easier machining, (c) to avoid temperature failure of the tool, (d) to improve tool life, (e) to reduce workpiece thermal deformation, (f) to improve surface finish due to lubrication, and (g) to flush away chips from the cutting zone.

A major benefit obtained by the use of a cutting fluid is longer tool life. One way of achieving this is by reducing tool temperature, since a small fall in tool temperature produces a large increase in tool life, for example a fall of 25 °C increases the tool life by 150 per cent[1]. Cutting fluids reduce tool temperature firstly by reducing friction, and hence the amount of heat generated, and secondly by carrying away this heat.

In addition, position of nozzle on rake face and flank face reduces friction coefficient drastically and improves tool life and surface quality (Wang et al., 2014). Nozzle position influences the penetration of liquid nitrogen in machining zone (Hong et al., 2001). Khan et al.'s (2010) studies reveal that nozzle position will significantly affect tool wear, which influences surface quality. López de Lacalle et al.'s (2006) results clearly indicated that the nozzle position in relation to the feed direction is crucial to improve the machinability performance. The use of cutting fluid reduces the cutting temperature, tool wear, and surface roughness, if applied in optimum amount.

The cutting fluids are usually made from petroleum products and mineral oils. Cutting fluid requirements depends on the type of application and machining condition. A low-speed operation requires more lubrication action against a high-speed machining operation which requires more cooling than lubrication.[91–93] Conventionally, cutting fluids are categorized as Straight oils, soluble oils, synthetic and semisynthetic oils, and gas-based lubricants.
