Bentonite CX-BEN is an API standard bentonite (a sodium montmorillonite clay) It is used as a primary filter-cake-building, filtration-control, and suspension agent in freshwater systems, and has application in all water-base mud systems.
Advantages:
Stabilizes the borehole Improves hole-cleaning capacity of drilling fluids Reduces fluid loss into the formation Is environmentally responsible
Recommended Treatment:
Add SMD API GRADE bentonite drilling mud CX-BEN in concentrations of 0-70 kg/m³ to any active system. Mix slowly through a jet mixer or sift slowly into the vortex of a high-speed stirrer.
Recommended Industries:
SMD bentonite viscosifier CX BEN is used in mineral exploration drilling and water well drilling.
