Bentonite
Bentonite is a naturally-occurring clay mineral that is commonly used as an absorbent and suspending agent in various laboratory applications. It is composed primarily of montmorillonite, a hydrated aluminum silicate. Bentonite has high absorption and swelling properties, making it useful for a variety of laboratory functions.

Lightweight Cement Slurry with Kraft Lignin
Example 6
A cement slurry was prepared according to the following composition as shown in table 11 below, which contains 333 g cement H (obtained from Lafarge Cement, Joppa, Ill.), 141 g fly ash c (obtained from Headwaters Resources, Thompsons, Tex.), 52 g bentonite (obtained from Sigma-Aldrich Co.) plus 19.2 g (4% BWOC) Kraft lignin (obtained from Hinton Pulp, a division of West Fraser Mills Ltd., Hinton, AB) were blended in with 468 g Houston tap water. The slurry viscosities were taken at ambient temperature for three shear rates: 3, 100 and 300 rpm, respectively. The slurry was then run at 200° F. resulting in a total fluid loss of 124 ml, representing a significant gain in the crucial fluid loss control performance of this commercially practiced light weight (12.6 ppg) slurry aimed at shallow well lead cementing operations. It demonstrates that using Kraft lignin alone, at sufficiently high dosage, can achieve certain extent of fluid loss control performance.

Example 7
A cement slurry was prepared according to the following composition as shown in table 13 below, which contains 333 g cement H (obtained from Lafarge Cement, Joppa, Ill.), 13.5 g bentonite (obtained from Sigma-Aldrich Co.) plus 6.8 g of an additive composition of including 2.6 g styrene butadiene copolymer containing minor acrylic and fumaric moieties under Hexion tradename PSB150, 2.6 g polyvinyl acetate under Hexion tradename UP600B, 1.6 g calcium carbonate flake embedded with surfactant under Hexion tradename Xair P, and 6.8 g Kraft lignin (obtained from Hinton Pulp, a division of West Fraser Mills Ltd., Hinton, AB) was blended in together with 330 g Houston tap water. The slurry viscosities were taken at ambient temperature for three shear rates: 3, 100 and 300 rpm, respectively, as shown in table 1. The slurry was then run at 200° F. resulting in a perfect zero ml fluid loss, representing a superb fluid loss control performance of this commercially practiced medium-to-heavy weight (15.5 ppg) slurry.

A cement slurry was prepared according to the following composition as shown in table 3 below, which contains 333 g cement H (obtained from Lafarge Cement, Joppa, Ill.), 141 g fly ash c (obtained from Headwaters Resources, Thompsons, Tex.), 52 g bentonite (obtained from Sigma-Aldrich Co.) plus 7.2 g (75% of the original dosage) of an additive composition including 1.8 g styrene butadiene copolymer containing minor acrylic and fumaric moieties under Hexion tradename PSB150, 21.8 g polyvinyl acetate under Hexion tradename UP600B, 3.6 g calcium carbonate flake embedded with surfactant under Hexion tradename Xair P, and 9.6 g Kraft lignin (obtained from Hinton Pulp, a division of West Fraser Mills Ltd., Hinton, AB) was blended in with 468 g Houston tap water. The slurry viscosities were taken at ambient temperature for three shear rates: 3, 100 and 300 rpm, respectively. The slurry was then run at 200° F. resulting in a total fluid loss of 27 ml, representing a significant improvement in the crucial fluid loss control performance of this commercially practiced light weight (12.6 ppg) slurry aimed at shallow well lead cementing operations.

The slurry viscosities were taken at ambient temperature for three shear rates: 3, 100 and 300 rpm. The slurry was then run at 200° F. resulting in a total fluid loss of 35 ml, representing a significant gain in the crucial fluid loss control performance of this commercially practiced light weight (12.6 ppg) slurry aimed at shallow well lead cementing operations.

About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
