PRODUCT DESCRIPTION Potassium Hydroxide or Caustic Potash (KOH) is a basic alkali. Its advantage over caustic soda (NaOH) is the increase of K+ ions while providing pH control. PHYSICAL & CHEMICAL PROPERTIES Appearance Orderless white flakes Type Alkali Hydroxide pH 12.0 (0.01 moles/litre) Specific Gravity 1.5 - 1.66g/cm3 Melting Point 212 - 307°F Melting Point 716°F Solubility Soluble in water APPLICATION Potassium Hydroxide is a strong alkali used to increase pH and alkalinity of drilling, workover and completion fluids. RECOMMENDED TREATMENT The amount required depends on the type and concentration of the mud components, as well as the desired pH…

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION PH-BUFFER is a fine grind magnesia compound. PH- BUFFER may be used in freshwater or salt solution such as sodium chloride, potassium chloride, calcium chloride, or zinc bromide. PHYSICAL & CHEMICAL PROPERTIES Appearance Powder to granular state, white, odorless pH 10 (10% aqueous solution) Specific Gravity 3.5g/cm3 Solubility Slightly soluble APPLICATION PH-BUFFER is designed to maintain the PH of polymer system in the 8.5 to 10 PH range pH Buffer is easily mixed using a mud hopper or other adequate mixing arrangement. RECOMMENDED TREATMENT Treatment usually ranges in the order of 0.1 to 0.3 lb/bbl Treatment for drill–in…

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION Citric Acid (C6H8O7) is a weak organic acid. It is used to remove calcium when drilling cement to reduce the potential of cross linking polymers (Xanthan and others) from iron. PHYSICAL & CHEMICAL PROPERTIES Appearance White powder or granules Type Organic Acid pH 8 (5% solution) Specific Gravity 1.5 - 1.66g/cm3 Melting Point 212 - 307°F Solubility Soluble (162g/100ml) @ water 20°C APPLICATION Citric Acid helps to reduce pH and to remove calcium when treating cement contamination. . The chemical reaction is as below: 2[H3C6H5O7-H2O] + 3 Ca (OH) 2 → Ca3 (C6H5O7)2 ↓ + 8 H2O. RECOMMENDED…

 MSDS PRODUCT DESCRIPTION CAUSTIC SODA is Sodium Hydroxide (NaOH). It is an effective pH modifier for aqueous systems.
