High performance water-based drilling fluid alternatives that meet performance objectives with minimal environmental impact must continually be developed. Drilling fluid performance is dependent on fluid characteristics, and among those most critical are viscosity and filtration. One avenue to improve drilling fluid performance is through enhancement by use of potent, water-soluble natural polymers. Psyllium husk powder is an environmentally friendly natural polymer derived from ground-up surfaces of psyllium seeds (Plantago ovata). When in contact with water, psyllium husk powder forms a gel-like, extraordinarily viscous substance at very low concentrations. It was previously shown that pure psyllium husk is an excellent viscosity and filtration agent for water-based drilling fluid under standard conditions. Psyllium husk can also be used as a clay-extender to enhance viscosity and filtration performance of bentonite mud; however, further laboratory testing of this performance enhancement under elevated temperatures and pressures is required. Extensive laboratory experiments were therefore conducted to test husk performance in bentonite mud under such conditions. An electronic rheometer and a temperature and pressure adjustable API filter press were used to evaluate viscoelastic and filtration mud characteristics respectively. Concentrations of 0.05–0.4% husk with 5% bentonite were tested at 25−120°C under 1500 psi. An optimal husk concentration of 0.1% was determined, increasing bentonite viscosity and yield point by up to 46.9% and 68.1% respectively. Filtrate loss rate and filtration cake thickness were reduced by up to 25.8% and 35.3% respectively. The optimal concentration was useable up to 70°C (~2800 m) before deflocculating was required.

Abstract Turning operation is one of the most commonly used machining processes. However, turning of high strength materials involves high heat generation which, in turn, results in undesirable characteristics such as increased tool wear, irregular chip formation, minor variations in physical properties etc. In order to overcome these, synthetic coolants are used and supplied in excess quantities (flood type). The handling and disposal of excess coolants are tedious and relatively expensive. In this proposed work, Water Soluble Cutting Oil suspended with nanoparticles (Graphene) is used in comparatively less quantities using Minimum quantity lubrication (MQL) method to improve the quality of machining. The testing was done on Turning operation of Monel K500 considering the various parameters such as the cutting speed, feed and depth of cut for obtaining a surface roughness of 0.462μm and cutting tool temperature of 55°C for MQL-GO (Graphene oxide) process.

In order to improve the luminescent stability of water-based anti-counterfeit ink, a new fluorescent material is prepared by doping dye into silica nanoparticles. Water soluble anionic dye 1, 3, 6, 8-pyrenesulfonic acid sodium salt (PTSA) is selected as the dopant. In this work, PTSA is successfully trapped into silica nanoparticles (SiNPs) by the reverse microemulsion method using cationic polyelectrolyte poly (dimethyl diallyl ammonium chloride; PDADMAC) as a bridge. The UV absorption spectra, fluorescence emission spectra and fluorescent decay curves are used to describe the luminescent properties of the PTSA-doped silica nanoparticles (PTSA-SiNPs). In addition, the as-prepared PTSA-SiNPs and polyurethane waterborne emulsion are used to prepare water-based anti-counterfeit ink, and fluorescent patterns are successfully printed through screen-printing. The samples printed by the ink exhibit desirable fluorescence properties, heat stability, robust photostability, and a fluorescent anti-counterfeit effect, which makes the PTSA-SiNPs promising luminescent materials for anti-counterfeit applications.

We report simple, water-based fabrication methods based on protein self-assembly to generate 3D silk fibroin bulk materials that can be easily hybridized with water-soluble molecules to obtain multiple solid formats with predesigned functions. Controlling self-assembly leads to robust, machinable formats that exhibit thermoplastic behavior consenting material reshaping at the nanoscale, microscale, and macroscale. We illustrate the versatility of the approach by realizing demonstrator devices where large silk monoliths can be generated, polished, and reshaped into functional mechanical components that can be nanopatterned, embed optical function, heated on demand in response to infrared light, or can visualize mechanical failure through colorimetric chemistries embedded in the assembled (bulk) protein matrix. Finally, we show an enzyme-loaded solid mechanical part, illustrating the ability to incorporate biological function within the bulk material with possible utility for sustained release in robust, programmably shapeable mechanical formats.

Multilayer ZnO varistors were prepared by aqueous gel tape casting with water-soluble acrylamide as binder. 0.8wt% PAA dispersant was found to be the optimum concentration needed to prepare stable slurry. Plasticizer glycerol has a positive effect on the fluidity of the suspension and oxygen anti-polymerizing inhibitor PEG 2000 deteriorated the fluidity. The addition of 15wt. % PEG2000 eliminates the surface exfoliation absolutely due to the oxygenation of ether units. The solid loading of the slurry was about 71wt% compared to the custom acrylic formulation binder 60wt%. The multilayer ZnO varistors prepared by aqueous gel tape casting display comparable good electrical properties to those prepared by water-based tape casting using custom acrylic formulation binder which is attributed to the high solid loading of slurry.
