=== Extreme Pressure Additives ===
Extreme pressure additives in cutting fluids create a barrier between the cutting tool and working material.<ref name="Canter Trends in extreme pressure additives">{{cite journal |last1=Canter |first1=Neil |title=Special Report: Trends in extreme pressure additives |journal=Tribology & Lubrication Technology |volume=63 |issue=9 |date=September 2007 |pages=10–18 |id={{INIST|19088019}} {{ProQuest|226959889}} |url=https://www.stle.org/images/pdf/STLE_ORG/BOK/OM_OA/Lubrication_Fundamentals/Trends%20in%20Extreme%20Pressure%20Additives_tlt%20article_Sept07.pdf }}</ref> This barrier prevents contact between the two. If the cutting tool and working material were to make contact, particles from the working material could be welded to the cutting tool.<ref name="Canter Trends in extreme pressure additives"/> these added particles would decrease the accuracy of the tool and its cuts, increase the friction in cutting, and lower the quality of the surface finish.
