Abstract

Abstract An improved high-content animal fat rolling oil formulation used for cold rolling sheet steel and steel strip for tin plate is achieved by adding effective amounts of a saturated dibasic acid containing from 4-4 carbon atoms to an animal fat formulation including: 1. refined animal fat, 2. minor portions of lubricity additives, 3. anti-oxidants, and 4. emulsifiers and other additives. This improved rolling oil formulation exhibits a drastically decreased coefficient of friction when applied between two metal surfaces.
