Gelling Agents & Gums Products

chemical powder

Xanthan Gum

● Xanthan Gum is a versatile thickening agent that provides optimal viscosity control in a wide range of temperatures and pH levels.●  It’s perfect for food, cosmetic, and industrial applications, offering excellent stability and compatibility with many other ingredients.

Features

● Provides excellent rheological modification and control for water-based drilling, completion and work over fluids in varying brines Within oil and gas operations.● Xanthan Gum will help achieve minimized pumping friction in lime, freshwater and saltwater muds, maximized drill pit penetration, accelerated drilling rates in low viscosity/high shear conditions among many other benefits .Within personal care items, will produce a large increase in viscosity of liquid with small amount of material, stabilization and enhanced rheology.● Dispersible and Non-dispersible Available as well as Various Mesh Sizes (80 Mesh, 100 Mesh).

Guar Gum

● Guar Gum is a natural thickening agent derived from guar beans.● It’s highly effective in controlling the viscosity of various products and is widely used in food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries. ● Its high soluble fiber content also makes it a popular ingredient in dietary supplements.

Features

● Hydrophilic polysaccharide from the seed of the guar plant, used to increase the viscosity of water.● This non-Newtonian solution gives a very high gel strength for suspension.● Highly dispersible in water and brines of varying salinity.● Used as top hole drilling fluid. Efficacy is increased when adding crosslinkers such as borates.● Other industries: dairy, beverages, paper industry, water treatment (coagulant aid). ● Appearance: off white to light tan, odorless. Mesh sizes available from 100-250.

PAC-R/PAC-LV

● PAC-R/PAC-LV products are high-quality polyanionic cellulose polymers that are excellent thickeners in aqueous systems.● They are particularly useful in oil drilling applications, where they control fluid loss and increase viscosity.

Features

● Polyanionic Cellulose filtration control additive, useful in controlling filtration and increasing rheology in all types of water and especially saltwater brines.● Controls fluid loss in freshwater, seawater, KCl and saltwater drilling fluid systems. ● Resists growth of bacteria, reducing need of bactericides or preservatives. ● Functions at all ranges of pH levels in both dispersed and non-dispersed fluids.

Organophilic Clays

● Organophilic Clays are specialty products that serve as excellent gelling agents in oil-based systems.● They are commonly used in drilling fluids, paint, and other applications where suspension of solids is required.

Features

● Effective Filtrate Reducer in Fresh and Salty Water.● Viscosifier capable of developing low-shear rate viscosity and suspension properties. ● Used as a primary and supplemental viscosifier. ● Used in base oil and synthetic fluids and oil based muds.  ● Excellent heat resistance ● Water soluble  ● High salt toleration ● Will not increase viscosity with temperature ● Easy to use with water based muds ● Strong antibacterial activity ● Can help keep the drilling mud stable and help prolong the life of it ● Will help reduce hole shrinkage and any collapse phenomena resulting from water loss of mud● PAC-LV can help reduce fluid loss and have little effect on the viscosity
