Product Description
MF-GEL is a modified premium sodium bentonite with high-yielding and easy-mixing properties. It is designed for mineral exploration, water well drilling and directional drilling applications.
MF-GEL helps build rapid viscosity, improve hole cleaning and support hole stability in poorly consolidated and caving formations.
Advantages
- Very high yield
- Easy mixing
- Rapid hydration to generate viscosity
- Helps form a thin and compressive filter cake
- Provides fluid loss control
- Supports hole cleaning and stability
Applications
MF-GEL is used to build viscosity and reduce filtration rates in drilling fluids. It is suitable for mineral exploration, water well drilling, directional drilling and various construction-related drilling activities.
