However, its low thermal conductivity and rapid work hardening rate make it inherently difficult to machine, highlighting the need for new cooling and lubrication methods. This work investigates the machinability of Haynes 25 under various sustainable cooling and lubrication techniques, including dry conditions, minimum quantity lubrication (MQL), nanofluids, and cryogenic COQ. Additionally, hybrid systems combining cryogenic COQ with nanofluids are also being investigated. The effectiveness of these approaches was ascertained by thorough investigations of surface roughness, cutting temperature, tool wear, and its mechanisms, and power consumption. Experimental results show that hybrid cooling systems especially those including nanofluids and cryogenic COQ significantly improve machining performance. Compared to dry machining, these methods minimized tool wear by 38 % and achieved up to a 44 % reduction in cutting temperature and a 32 % reduction in power usage. These results were a result of the enhanced thermal and tribological characteristics of nanofluids along with COQ's fast cooling capacity. This work provides a route toward sustainable and high-performance manufacture of challenging-to-machine materials by highlighting the possibilities of hybrid cooling strategies to maximize machining efficiency, extend tool life, and lower environmental impact.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessCo-based Haynes 25Tool wearHybrid cooling/lubrication systemsWear mechanismsSurface roughnessPower consumptionArticle4310.1016/j.susmat.2025.e012682-s2.0-85216197515Q1WOS:001415041600001Q1
