POLYFOR

POLYCOL 60 LS USE Viscosifier for drilling muds, easy to mix and very simple to use. Stabilize the hole walls, remove cuttings, increase core recovery in less consolidated formations. FORM Liquid form product. Available in 5 Kg and 25 Kg cans.

ADVANTAGES

• Little storage and low concentrations: 1,0 to 3,0 litres/M³ of water, to obtain 35 to 70 sec marsh viscosity.
• Non toxic, non polluting polymer.
• Reduce torque on inhole equipment.
• Avoid cake, there is no warping in water well drills.
• Improve drilling penetration rates.
• Better cuttings removal.
• Better core recovery in unconsolidated formations: when POLYCOL 60 LS is diluted in water, it produces long molecular chains which deposit on the hole and core, increasing stability and integrity.
• Easy to destroy, by adding bleach or hydrogen peroxide (2l/M³ of mud).
• For fresh and salted water.

NATURE
Blend of polyacrylamides/sodium acrylates in emulsion.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

Determine the concentration:

• 1,0 litre/M³ for hard rocks
• 2,0 litres/M³ for instable layers
• 3,0 litres/M³ for 100% core recovery in sandy, friable sandstones, powdery schists, gravels, alluvions

Pour POLYCOL 60 LS directly in water. The mud is ready immediately. Do not use shale shakers to carry off cuttings from the mud.

When drilling, the polymer deposits on the sides of the hole, core and the cuttings to stabilize the walls, so it is necessary to add some product time to time when viscosity falls.

If the viscosity decreases too rapidly, maybe there is a problem of acidity. Add 0,2 Kg of soda ash by M³ of mud. POLYCOL 60 LS is compatible with nearly all kinds of polymers for drilling muds. It’s incompatible with Bentonite and attapulgite muds.
