SPERSENEXCFI
deflocculant is an iron lignosulfonate specially formulated to act as
a deflocculant in all water-base mud systems. It reduces and
stabilizes viscosity
and gel strengths which assist in reducing fluid loss. SPERSENE CFI
deflocculant is the result of significant developments in lignin
chemistry that have
led to a "chrome-free" product that displays superlative
performance. The product can contain trace amounts of naturally
occurring elements, such as
aluminum, magnesium, vanadium and chromium.

Typical Physical PropertiesPhysical appearance- Brown powderSpecific gravity- 1.4pH- 3.5 (10% solution)Solubility- 100%Bulk density- 45.2 Ib/ft3 (725 kg/m3)ApplicationsSPERSENE CFI deflocculant may be used as a deflocculant and fluid-loss additive in all water-base systems. It has proven to be effective in various systems - freshwater, seawater, saturated salt water, potassium, lime, and gyp - and in high-temperature, low-colloid systems. Laboratory tests and field usage have demonstrated the superior deflocculating ability of SPERSENE CFI deflocculant, even in the presence of contaminants and increased temperature. Normal treatments of SPERSENE CFI deflocculant range from 1 to 12 lb/bbl (2.85 to 34.2 kg/m3) depending on the mud system, solids concentration and desired results. Initial treatments normally range from 1 to 6 lb/bbl (2.85 to 17.1 kg/m3) and can be easily added to the mud system through the mud hopper. SPERSENE CFI deflocculant is most effective in mud systems with an alkaline pH in the range of 9 to 11. Due to the product's low pH, SPERSENE CFI deflocculant treatments require additional caustic soda, or an alternative alkaline material, to maintain a consistent pH. A normal ratio is one sack of caustic soda for every four sacks of SPERSENE CFI deflocculant, however an increased amount of caustic soda will be necessary in seawater. SPERSENE CFI deflocculant is highly soluble and will easily disperse in all types of waterAdvantagesCompatible with all water-base fluidsExcellent deflocculantTemperature stable to 325OF (163OC)Shows superlative performance in the presence of contaminantsAssists in reducing fluid lossEffectively inhibits bentonite and/or shale hydration when used in sufficient concentrationsFormulated with out chrome, and environmentally acceptable for most areas which restrict the use of chromeLimitationsMost effective at pH levels above 9.5Toxicity and HandlingBioassay information is available up on request. Handle as an industrial chemical, wearing protective equipment and observing the precautions as described in the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS)Packaging and StorageSPERSENE CFI deflocculant is packaged in 50-Ib (22.7-kg) multi-wall, paper sakcs.
