QUIK MUD® D-50

QUIK MUD D-50 liquid polymer dispersion is a partially-hydrolyzed polyacrylamide/polyacrylate (PHPA) copolymer used primarily as a viscosifier and borehole stabilizer to prevent reactive shale and clay from swelling and sloughing.

QUIK MUD D-50 liquid polymer dispersion can be used to provide friction reduction, inhibition and lubricity in freshwater, KCl and saltwater-based drilling fluids.

  • Viscosity development in fresh water drilling fluids
  • Clay and shale stabilization to prevent swelling and/or dispersion
  • Reduce rotational torque and circulating pressure
  • Promotes enhancement of air-foam system capabilities
  • Enhances core recovery in continuous wireline coring operations
  • NSF/ANSI/CAN Standard 60 certified
  • Can be mixed easily with minimum shear in fresh water
  • Efficient and cost effective – small amounts produce desired results
  • Can be broken down chemically with bleach (sodium hypochlorite)
  • Compatible with other Baroid drilling fluid additives, added in proper sequence
  • Non-fermenting
