INTRON drillEmul
Oil-based mud emulsifiers
Primary, secondary and invert-emulsion support for oil-based drilling-fluid formulation.
How it is used
Primary emulsifiers establish the invert emulsion. Secondary emulsifiers reinforce stability and oil-wetting of solids. Additional invert-emulsion systems can support formulations with different internal-water contents and electrolyte concentrations.
Application areas
- Primary emulsification in oil-based muds
- Secondary emulsification and oil-wetting support
- Invert emulsions with demanding brine or internal-phase conditions
Formulation considerations
Fatty-acid, modified-polyamide and polymeric-surfactant approaches can be evaluated. Discuss Primary, Secondary and Invert variants for the complete mud system.
What we need to select a grade
- Base oil, internal-brine composition and oil/water ratio
- Mud density, solids and weighting materials
- Temperature and emulsion-stability, rheology and filtration targets
Product data and handling
Request the current technical data sheet and safety data sheet for the proposed grade. Confirm dosage, compatibility, handling and supply requirements before use.
