EZ-MUD® PLUS
EZ-MUD PLUS liquid polymer emulsion contains partially hydrolyzed polyacrylamide/polyacrylate (PHPA) copolymer and is used primarily as a viscosifier and borehole stabilizer to prevent reactive shales and clays from swelling and sloughing. EZ-MUD PLUS is also added to low-solids drilling fluids to increase lubricity and to improve the carrying capacity of air/foam injection fluids.EZ-MUD PLUS polymer emulsion is a high molecular weight version of EZ-MUD polymer emulsion with improved properties.
- Stabilize reactive shale and clay formations
- Improve borehole and excavation stability
- Enhance slurry rheological properties
- Alleviate mud rings, bit balling and booting-off in clay formations
- Reduce drill pipe torque and pumping pressure
- Minimize rod chatter in diamond core drilling
- Create “stiff-foam” and maintain foam integrity
- Flocculate non-reactive solids in reserve pit at low concentrations
- NSF/ANSI/CAN Standard 60 certified
- Liquid form – mixes easily with minimum shear in fresh water
- Efficient shale/clay stabilizer and viscosifier
- Non-fermenting
- Cost-effective – small amounts produce desired results
- Breaks down chemically with bleach (sodium hypochlorite)
