Product Information

BD-40L

Description

BD-40L is the liquid which is added to the mixing water at the well site to improve rheological properties of cement slurries. It is a dark brown liquid, composed primarily of a highly polymerized naphthalene sulfonate.

Applications

  • BD-40L is used to thin cement slurries so that turbulent flow can be achieved at a reasonably low pump rate.
  • Concentrations of BD-40L are expressed as gallon per sack of cement (gps).

Advantages

  • BD-40L helps achieve turbulent flow at low flow rates.
  • BD-40L allows neat cement to be modified on location.
