PHYSICAL & CHEMICAL PROPERTIES
| Appearance | Black to brown powder |
| Specific Gravity | 0.98g/cm3 |
| Solubility | Appreciable |
APPLICATION
- It stabilizes shale formations by inhibiting disintegration.
- Inhibits the dispersion of drilled solids.
- Controls high-temperature filtration properties.
- Acts as a corrosion inhibitor at high temperature.
- Can be a substitute for diesel oil in the mud system.
- Reduces torque and drag and prolongs the life of the bit.
- Will emulsify diesel oil into the mud system.
RECOMMENDED TREATMENT
- For high temperature high pressure filtration control: 2.0 to 6.0 ppb.
- For shale stabilization: 2.0 to 8.0 ppb.
- To reduce torque and drag: 2.0 to 6.0 ppb.
- As an emulsifier of diesel oil: 0.8 to 3.0 ppb.
- As a substitute for diesel oil: 2.0 to 6.0 ppb.
