Semisynthetics

Semisynthetic fluids contain a small amount of mineral oil plus some other additives to enhance lubricity. Semisynthetics are popular fluids as they combine cooling and lubricity of synthetic fluids with the better residue characteristics of emulsions. They will generally be used on the more difficult to machine materials.
