How can lubricants and cutting fluids be reliably made usable for longer periods with selected formulation components? The experts from Vink Chemicals will be available to answer visitors' questions on this topic at the Lubricant Expo Europe 2025 from September 16 to 18 in Düsseldorf.

They cool and lubricate during metalworking, wash away contaminants, and protect against corrosion: Cutting fluids (Metalworking Fluids, MWF) are indispensable for drilling, milling, sawing, and grinding. To enable their use for as long as possible in a sustainable manner, cutting fluids must be protected against fungal and bacterial contamination. Otherwise, microbiological contamination can lead to clogging of containers and circulation systems, resulting in quality issues and costly manufacturing errors.

Effective Preservation

For users of metalworking fluids, this means: They need solutions that keep the lubricants fully functional over a longer period and, of course, comply with current legal requirements (classification and labeling). At the Lubricant Expo Europe 2025, Vink Chemicals will present its comprehensive portfolio:

– Biocides
Highly effective biocides such as grotan®, parmetol®, and Vinkocide® offer reliable protection against microbiological contamination.
– Defoamers
Products from the Vinkotech® ES series prevent excessive foam formation. Otherwise, this could impair cooling/lubrication performance, hinder effective heat dissipation, and complicate chip removal.
– Wear protection additives
The Extreme-Pressure (EP) additives Vinkoflame® TOF reduce friction, heat development, and material wear during metal contact.
– Emulsifiers
Vinkotech® MIPA is an effective multifunctional amine that provides emulsifying, stabilizing, and corrosion protection properties in KSS formulations.
– Bio-based ingredients
The bio-based additive Vinkotech® CNSL improves rust protection in synthetic lubricants, among other benefits.

More than Biocides: Customized Solutions for Sustainable Equipment Hygiene

In addition to formulating and producing high-quality biocide products, Vink Chemicals also offers comprehensive hygiene audits and customized solutions for microbiological control in cutting fluid systems. The goal is not only to support users with effective products but also to provide tailored concepts for sustainable equipment hygiene. This can extend service life, reduce operating costs, and reliably meet legal requirements.

Exchange at the Trade Fair Booth

From September 16 to 18, Vink Chemicals GmbH & Co. KG will present its portfolio of formulation components and its broad range of customized solutions at the Lubricant Expo Europe 2025 in Düsseldorf. The company's experts look forward to welcoming partners, customers, and all interested visitors at booth 341.
