drilling mud viscosifiers

Organoclay | Organophilic Clay CP-2 also named amine treated Bentonite.

Drilling mud viscosifiers

In diesel oil based fluids,organophilic clay viscosifier CP-2 are used to increase carrying capacity and suspension properties, providing support for weight materials and improved cutting removal. Organophilic bentonite also aids in filter-cake formation and filtration control.

Drilling mud viscosifiers

It is at home in aromatic solvents and equally at home in solvent-free worlds such as inks, sealants and adhesives. The essence lies in the organic modification of the montmorillonite clay, which makes CP-EDS appear as a fine yellowish powder.

Under strict quality control, the product’s moisture content is strictly limited to less than 3.5% (tested at 105°C and 2 hours of baking), and its stability at high temperatures has been verified by a loss on ignition test, with loss rates stabilized at between 34% and 37%.

What is even more remarkable is that CP-EDS not only has a moderate bulk density between 0.35 and 0.45 grams per cubic centimeter, but also has an amazing level of particle fineness –

more than 95% of the particles are less than 74 microns, and the dispersed particles are extremely fine with a particle size of less than 10 microns, which all together make CP-EDS an excellent choice for rheology control.

CP-EDS is an excellent performer in the field of rheology control.

Use of pre-gel:
For resin systems with poor wettability (e.g. epoxy, polyester, short oil alkyd resins, etc.), first mix the paint and an appropriate amount of solvent.

Slowly add the prepared organic pre-gel, and use high-speed mixing equipment to fully mix and disperse to ensure that the pre-gel is evenly integrated into the paint system.

Add the pigment and continue mixing until the pigment is completely dispersed.

Finally, adjust the viscosity of the paint as needed to achieve the ideal working condition.
Dry Powder Addition Method

CP-EZ10 Organic Bentonite can be added directly as a dry powder to certain resin systems with good wettability or systems where thixotropic structures can be formed naturally during the grinding process. The specific operation steps are as follows:

Add solvent: first add the appropriate amount of solvent into the mixing container and start the stirrer.
Add bentonite powder: slowly add CP-EZ10 organic bentonite powder to the solvent, stirring continuously for about 10 minutes, until the bentonite powder is completely wetted and initially dispersed.

Add Polar Activator: Add polar activator to the system and continue stirring for 5-10 minutes to further expand the bentonite particles and disperse them uniformly in the solvent.

Subsequent treatment: Add other components such as resin and surfactant in turn, and mix thoroughly until the desired fineness. Finally, adjust the viscosity of the paint as required.
