The present paper is focused on the performance of whisker-reinforced ceramic cutting tool (WRCCT) under nano-sized solid lubricants dispersed in MQL (nanofluid-MQL) during turning of Co-based Haynes 25 alloy. The turning experiments were performed under several cutting environments (dry, base fluid MQL (BF-MQL), hBN based nanofluid MQL (hBN-NMQL), MoS2 based nanofluid MQL (MoS2-NMQL), graphite based nanofluid MQL Gr-NMQL) by varying cutting speed (200 and 300 m/min) and feed rate (0.1 and 0.15 mm/ rev) values. Initially, the viscosity and thermal conductivity of nanofluids were evaluated and then the prepared nanofluids were used for machining experiments. The results reveal that the rate of increase in thermal conductivity coefficient relative to base cutting fluid was 11.90% in hBN-nanofluid, 16.29% in MoS2-nanofluid and 14.12% in Gr-nanofluid. In terms of machining performance, on the one hand, the minimum surface roughness was obtained from Gr-NMQL assisted machining, on the other hand, the hBN-NMQL has been successful in limiting of notch wear and nose wear values. Compared to dry turning, the temperature was reduced up to 27.18% with hBN doped nanofluids, while it was 34.95% with MoS2 doped nanofluids and 29.32% with graphene doped nanofluids.en10.1016/j.ceramint.2021.02.122info:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessWhisker-reinforced ceramic cutting toolHaynes 25 superalloyNanofluidsTool wear behaviorsArticle471115542155602-s2.0-85101375298WOS:000640976400001Q1Q1
