During machining, metalworking fluids can aerosolize (become suspended in the air) as fluid streams break up when they interact with spinning tools or parts. This can lead to a health and safety concerns for your mechanical shop workers as a fluid mist is introduced into the workplace.

Adding a demist additive to metalworking fluids is an effective way to reduce airborne mist. These additives enlarge the mist droplets so they do not stay suspended in the air as long, and may also reduce fluid loss and vapor generation.
