    KAR-PAC R is a premium grade polyanionic cellulose powder used to control fluid loss and viscosity in water-based drilling fluids. It inhibits hydration of water-sensitive shales and improves performance of solids control equipment. KAR-PAC R is effective between pH 7-9 with total hardness under 1000 mg/L, and is thermally stable up to 150°C. It is added to drilling fluids at 0.25-2.0 lb/bbl to inhibit fluid loss and disperse drill cuttings while protecting borehole stability.

    KAR-PAC R

    Product Data

    Description Limitations
    KAR-PAC R is a premium grade, high molecular weight KAR-PAC R is effective in drilling fluids with a total
    polyanionic cellulose (PAC) used to control fluid loss hardness less than 1,000 mg/l (as calcium).
    and viscosity in all types of water-base drilling fluids.
    KAR-PAC R losses its effectiveness under the com-
    bined effect of high hardness and high pH as it is pre-
    Typical Properties cipitated by calcium. pH can be reduced using sodium
    bicarbonate and/or citric acid.
    Appearance : white powder
    pH (1% solution) : 7 - 9 KAR-PAC R is thermally stable up to 150 °C (300 °F).
    Bulk Density : 500 - 800 kg/m3 The temperature stability can be increased by 20 °C by
    using KAR-POLY TS temperature stabilizer.

    Features and Benefits


    Treatment
    KAR-PAC R is used as both viscosifier and fluid loss
    control agent in all types of water-base drilling fluids. It Normal treatment levels range from 0.25 to 2.0 lb/bbl

    Packaging
    KAR-PAC R systems are nontoxic and are especially
    suited for use in environmentally sensitive areas. KAR-PAC R is supplied in 25 kg (55 lb) multi-wall pa-
    per sacks.

    Application
    KAR-PAC R can be used as fluid loss reducer and vis-
    cosifier in all types of water-base drilling fluids.
