The invention relates to metal working fluids being oil-in-water emulsions comprising alkylated polyvinylpyrrolidones as surfactants for emulsifying the oil in water. Said alkylated polyvinylpyrrolidones having a molecular weight of about 5,000 up to 20,000 provide emulsions showing a high emulsion stability under varying and severe processing conditions of metal working fluids. Other advantages of the metal working fluids according to the invention are the narrow distribution of the droplet size, the high stability against varying quality/composition of the make-up water, a high capacity of dispensing metal fines in the metal working fluid as well as excellent film forming characteristics.
