(54) Soluble oil cutting fluid


(57) A soluble-oil, suitable when diluted with water, for use as a cutting fluid comprises an alkali or alkaline-earth metal alkyl benzene sulphonate, a fatty acid diethanolamide, a mixed alkanolamine borate, a polyisobutenesuccinimide and a major proportion of mineral oil. The soluble-oil is relatively stable without the need for a conventional coupling agent and some soluble-oil emulsions are bio-static even though conventional biocides are not included.
