Low Viscosity Carboxymethyl Cellulose Sodium Salt
Anionic polyelectrolyte derived from cellulose, widely utilized as a viscosity and fluid loss control agent in drilling fluids. It plays a critical role in enhancing drilling efficiency and wellbore stability.
- Contribute to drilling fluid rheology modifier CMC: The long molecular chain of this substance effectively adsorbs with clay particles, thereby enhancing the cementation of the mud cake and improving overall drilling fluid properties.
- Prevent shale hydration expansion with shale inhibitor carboxymethyl cellulose: Its properties help to inhibit shale hydration expansion, a common issue that can lead to wellbore instability and operational challenges.
- Improve fluid loss control with fluid loss control agent CMC: This additive is specifically designed to reduce fluid loss into porous formations, which is crucial for maintaining wellbore stability and efficient drilling operations.
- Ensure borehole stabilization with borehole stabilization additive CMC: By consolidating the borehole, it helps prevent collapses and ensures the structural integrity of the wellbore throughout the drilling process.
