Description
Technical Parameters
IdsperseXT is essentially a Thinner and Deflocculant for Water Based Mud. It reduces the Viscosities and gel Strengthsis a medium-molecular-weight, anionic, white powder additive used primarily for controlling filtration loss in low-salinity water base mud systems. It is a Effective Mud Conditioner and Effective thinner and Gel Reducer and Prevents High temperature Mud gelation.is sensitive to calcium and magnesium, therefore the total hardness of the system should be reduced and maintained below 300 ppm.
Applications/Functions
- Deflocculates most water-based systems.
- Helps minimize thermal flocculation.
- Reduces shear strength development.
Advantages
- Stable at temperatures up to 400°F.
- Readily soluble in water and can be added directly to agitated mud pits.
- Excellent performance at low concentrations.
- Effective in the presence of salt and divalent ions.
- Not pH dependent.
- Environmentally acceptable.
Typical Properties
- Appearance: Colorless to yellow, viscous liquid.
- Specific gravity: 1.10-1.25
- pH: 4-8
- Boiling Point: 180-212°F
- Solid Content: 45%
Recommended Treatment
- A typical range is 1-4 ppb, but specific drilling conditions will dictate the suitable concentration.
