MWF 200 is a new intermediate course offered to those STLE Members who have taken one of the "100" level basic courses such as MWF 105 (Introduction to Metal Forming Fluids) and MWF 115 (Introduction to Metal Removal Fluids). This course builds on the content introduced in those basic courses by focusing on seven important additive types used in metalworking fluids. Those types are boundary lubricity additives, extreme pressure additives, emulsifiers, corrosion inhbitors and metal deactivators, pH reserve alkalinity boosters and amines, biocides, and antifoams/defoamers. Details on the chemistry of these additives used in these seven important types will be provided including how they are produced and specific types within each additive category. Modules will also include content on how best to use these additives in metalworking fluid applications. An eighth module will present information on a series of other additives that are also used in metalworking fluids including detgergents, dispersants, odor controls, dyes, coupling agents, antimist, and thickeners.
