A urea grease of the invention is prepared by applying shear at a shear rate of 10.sup.2 s.sup.−1 or more to a mixture solution of an amine mixture containing an alicyclic monoamine and a chain aliphatic monoamine, and a diisocyanate compound to cause a reaction in the mixture, in which the urea grease has Peak High32-64s of 1.5 or less and Level High32-64s of 10 or less according to an FAG method.

The disclosure relates to a biobased metal-working fluid (MWF) composition and method for making same, and more particularly metal-working fluid with biobased lubricants with improved emulsion stability. At least 50 wt. % of the base oil component in the MWF concentrate is a plant-derived liquid decarboxylated rosin acid oil (“DCR”). The DCR comprises 50 to 100 wt. % of tricyclic compounds having 18-20 carbon atoms, one or more C═C groups, and m/z (mass/charge) value of 220-280; an oxygen content of <5%; a density of 0.9 to 1.0 g/cm.sup.3 at 20° C.; and an acid value of <10 mg KOH/g. The resulting MWF is characterized as having comparable if not better performance compared to a MWF containing only mineral oil (e.g., Group I or Group II).

A lubricating oil composition may have a high flash point, a low pour point, and excellent electrical insulation, while having excellent cooling performance.
