Xanthan Gum for water based oil drilling system
Xanthan Gum (XC Polymer) equivalent to DUO-VIS
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:
Xanthan Gum D is a high-molecular-weight xanthan gum polysaccharide that includes
an enhanced dispersibility feature.
APPLICATIONS:
Xanthan Gum D solutions may be susceptible to biological degradation, so a
preservative at mud pH values above 10.0, Xanthan Gum D becomes more sensitive
to soluble calcium and maybe precipitated out of solution, however, it can be added to
most waters regardless of salinity. Xanthan Gum D can also be used in lieu of
bentonite to produce a no-solids viscous fluid.
ADVANTAGES:
Outstanding viscosity-enhancing property and solubility in water.
Unique pseudo-plasticity rheological property of Xanthan Gum it high-efficient
emulsifier and stabilizer.
Excellent stability to large of temperature and pH change.
Stable compatibility with acid, alkaline, brine, enzyme, surface active agent,
antiseptics, oxidant and other thickener.
Perfect synergistic action when compounding with Guargum, Locust bean gum and
other gums.
TYPICAL PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
pH 6.0 - 8.0
Appearance White, free-flowing powder
Hygroscopic Slightly
RECOMMENDED TREATMENT:
Normal concentration levels used in various fluids will range from about 0.6 to 5.7 kg/m³ (0.2
to 2.0 lb/bbl). In the presence of certain heavy metal compounds, cross-linking of the
Xanthan Gum D can occur.
PACKAGING:
25 kg multi wall bags with pe liner palletized wrapped & strapped.
