ToR 2458-018-97457491-2009
Ferrolignosulphonate (FLS) is intended for diluting water-based clayey drilling fluids and reduces viscosity by more than 50% at temperatures of up to 150°C.
Product specs
Physical form | Light-to-dark brown loose powder |
Water content, weight %, max | 10 |
pH index of water solution with a FLS concentration of 1 weight % | ≥4 |
Water solubility, %, min | 90 |
Dilution index, %, min | 40,0 |
Application
FLS influences the flow characteristics of drilling fluid in the same manner as FCLS; although, unlike the latter, FLS contains no chrome, which makes it usable in environmentally sensitive areas.
Consumption
The tentative consumption of FLS ranges from 5 to 17 kg per cubic meter of drilling fluid.
Packaging
FLS is packaged in 20-kg polypropylene bags with a polyethylene liner.Back
