LPAC-150 LV & HV™
+ DOWNLOAD PDFLiquid Polyanionic Cellulose
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
LPAC-150 LV & HV™ is produced in low viscosity & high viscosity grades as a high performance polyanionic cellulose suspended in a non-toxic mineral oil. LPAC-150 LV & HV™ grades can be used as borehole stabilizer, rheology control, filtrate reducer and lubricant, disperses easily in the mud without formation of “fish eye” and loss of non-dispersed polymers.
APPLICATIONS
- Controls Fluid Loss
- Improves core recovery in diamond drilling
- Reduces friction and minimizes chances of differential sticking
- Inhibits reactive clays and retards drilled solids build-up
ADVANTAGES
- Disperses easier than the powder PAC
- Provides filtration control in fresh and brackish water-based drilling fluids
- Saves mixing time compare to powder polymers
- Reduces product waste and betters penetration rate into the system
- Effective in all water types
- Provides suspension without the addition of solids
- Improves lubricity lowers friction pressure
- Increases hole cleaning capacity and core recovery
PROPERTIES, TYPICAL
