Description

Unlike some other blending gilsonite, Potassium Asphalt Sulfonate is highly sulfonated by unique process which leads to partially oil soluble as well. Potassium Asphalt Sulfonate gives more excellent emulsifying characteristic. It is also highly resistant to temperature. Potassium Asphalt Sulfonate stabilizes shale formation by inhibiting disintegration of the shale both chemically and physically. It inhibits the dispersion of drilling cuttings, controls high temperature high pressure (HTHP) filtration. Potassium Asphalt Sulfonate reduces torque and drag, prolongs the life of the bit, improves filter cake quality and enhances well productivity. It also acts as an emulsifier of diesel oil. In addition to providing the same unique quality as Sodium Asphalt Sulfonate, Potassium Asphalt Sulfonate contributes water-soluble potassium ions to the mud system. It is a proven extensively used drilling fluid additive having many fine properties. Oil asphalt is basal raw material. It appears brown in easily breakable pieces or fluidized powder. Its density is 0.*8g/cm3. Potassium Asphalt Sulfonateis partly water soluble partly oil soluble for every kind of drilling fluid. Potassium Asphalt Sulfonate includes two types of high water soluble: Sodium Asphalt Sulfonate FT, Calcium Asphalt Sulfonate FT-K.
