emulsifiable
Able to blend
Emulsifiable means capable of being mixed into an emulsion—a stable blend of liquids that don't normally combine, like oil and water.
The term appears most often in technical contexts: emulsifiable concentrate, emulsifiable oil.
Pesticides and industrial lubricants are often formulated to be emulsifiable, allowing them to disperse evenly when mixed with water.
