Sulfonates have long been used in metalworking fluid systems, but they can introduce higher foam, reduced stability, and less control as conditions change.

Nelson Brothers PIBSA-based emulsifiers take a different approach. Engineered specifically for emulsification, they help create cleaner, more stable emulsions with minimal foaming.

The difference isn’t just in the chemistry, it’s visible in the emulsion.

For years, metalworking fluid formulators have worked around the limitations of legacy PIBSA components.

But what if the starting point was built for emulsification from the beginning?

Our PIBSAs are engineered to support stable, consistent emulsions—so your system works with you, not against you.
