What is the biggest issue facing the metalworking fluids industry today?

The Globally Harmonized System (GHS) of Classification and Labeling of Chemicals, already in place in some parts of the world and slated for 2015 adoption in the U.S., is on the minds of TLT readers, according to responses to this month’s survey. The education process already is under way, with 27 percent of readers saying they are confident in their GHS knowledge. Other readers are concerned about the dwindling number of chemicals that can be used in metalworking fluid formulation, with several respondents citing the loss of boron in particular.
