Product Description
A chemical used in preparation and maintenance of an oil or synthetic-base drilling fluid that forms a water-in-oil emulsion (invert emulsion). An ICC-oil mud emulsifier lowers the interfacial tension between oil and water, which allows stable emulsions with small drops to be formed. Historically, ICC-oil mud emulsifiers have been classified as primary and secondary. Secondary emulsifiers are generally not used alone to make a stable oil mud. These emulsifiers surround water droplets, like an encapsulating film, with the fatty acid component extending into the oil phase. Emulsifier molecules that cannot fit around drops form clusters (micelles) in the oil phase or adsorb onto solids. ICC-Oil mud emulsion drops each behave like a small osmotic cell. The emulsifier around the drops acts like a semi permeable membrane through which water can move but ions cannot pass. Thus, oil muds have the special capability (which water muds do not have) to control water transfer to and from the drops simply by adjusting salinity within the water phase of the oil mud
ICC manufactures a range of ICC-oil mud emulsifiers which have been classified as primary and secondary. ICC-Sec. Emulsifier is a proprietary surfactant blend for use as a secondary emulsifier in invert drilling mud systems. ICC-Sec. Emulsifier is a liquid blend of selected secondary emulsifier and wetting agent. It is used to emulsify water into oil in oil /diesel based drilling fluids It provides excellent emulsion stability, acts as a wetting agent, gelling agent and fluid stabilizer in a mineral oil base. It is also used for filtration control and for temperature stability
ICC-Sec. Emulsifier is a secondary invert emulsifier based on a chemically modified. ICC-Sec. ICC-Sec. Emulsifier is oil soluble, water dispersible and is compatible with most products employed in oil based drilling fluids
ICC-Sec. Emulsifier uses diesel/alcohol solvent, but can be formulated in low toxic solvent for more environmental control and is coded as ICC-Sec. Emulsifier. ICC-Sec. Emulsifier when used in conjunction with ICC-Sec. Emulsifier will give stable invert mud that eliminates or reduces the need for additional fluid loss control additives
ICC-Sec. Emulsifier is both a secondary emulsifier and oil-wetting agent suitable for use in diesel oil based drilling fluid systems. ICC-Sec. Emulsifier has minimal alkalinity requirements. When ICC-Sec. Emulsifier is used in conjunction with ICC-Sec. Emulsifier j, high temperature stable invert emulsions with low filtration rates can be obtained. ICC-Sec. Emulsifier functions as a secondary emulsifier. Additional benefits include improved thermal stability and HTHP filtration control. ICC-Sec. Emulsifier wetting agent is effective over a wide temperature range, in the presence of contaminants, and is reducing the adverse effects of water contamination
This product is not classified as a hazardous substance, ICC-Sec. Emulsifier must be handled as an Industrial chemical, wearing protective equipment and observing the precautions as mentioned in the MSDS
ICC-Sec. Emulsifier has shelf life of at least six months from the data of manufacture when stored in the original sealed containers in a cool and dry place.
ICC-Sec. Emulsifier is packaged in 220 Lit polyethylene or steel drum s. Customized packaging is also available on request.
ICC-Sec. Emulsifier store in dry, well-ventilated area. Keep container closed. Keep away from heat, sparks and flames. Store away from incompatibles. Follow safe warehousing practices regarding palletizing, banding, shrink-wrapping and/or stacking. Keep in original container and tightly closed.
