cutting fluid used should have ability to form a thin layer separating tool and workpiece surface during machining process, for this moderate amount of adhesiveness should be there for any cutting fluid.
Madam
Probably viscocity of the cutting fluid will be and indicator of its adhesivenss. higher the viscocity it will adhere for more length of time
I dont know a method to measure adhesiveness, but one option, if the machining process use rotating tool like milling, may be to weigh a dry insert. Then wet the insert with the lubricant and finally centrifugate the tool a the rotating speed that tool work, and newly weigh the insert. The difference can represent a grade of adhesiveness of the lubricant.
We can relate with wetting of cutting fluid on tool substrate.
