CT-CMC-HV Carboxy Methyl Cellulose Polymer High Viscosity
DESCRIPTION
CT-CMC HV is a high viscosity, high molecular weight dispersible Carboxy Methyl Cellulose fluid loss additive designed to provide viscosity and reduce API filtration rate to water based drilling fluids.
APPLICATION
It is a cost effective additive used to reduce API filtration rate of many water based drilling fluids from freshwater to saturate saltwater. It is suited for water-loss and rheological control in low-solids mud and is a highly efficient viscosifier in all other mud
ADVANTAGES
• Widely available and low cost polymer for fluid Loss control
• It is an effective at providing filtration control in most water based drilling fluids.
• It is effective in low concentrations.
• It is Non–Toxic.
• It is not subjected to bacterial fermentation and calcium contamination.
• Can be used in Most water based Fluid systems
• Increases viscosity
