Mon PacŪ- - - PURPOSE AND PROPERTIES

Mon Pac is a premium grade, high viscosity, pure polyanionic cellulosic polymer produced for Montello, Inc. by the same manufacturer since the 1970's. Each lot must meet Montello's rigorous chemical, physical, and performance specifications before being shipped. This ensures consistent, superior performance in the field.

Mon Pac provides excellent fluid loss control, builds viscosity, encapsulates drilled solids, and reduces fluid friction. It is effective in fresh water, brackish, KCL, and saturated salt water systems. It forms a low permeability filter cake to minimize the potential for differential sticking by reducing the invasion of mud solids and filtrate into permeable formations.

TYPICAL PROPERTIES:

Physical Appearance White free-flowing powder
Specific Gravity 1.5 - 1.6
Purity > 98%
PH (1% Solution) 6.0 - 8.0
1% Viscosity 3,000 cps

ADVANTAGES:

  • Consistently superior performance
  • Excellent fluid loss control in fresh and saturated salt muds
  • Produces a tough thin filter cake
  • Acts as a viscosifier for low solids fluids in fresh and contaminated fluid systems
  • Exhibits high temperature stability

HOW TO USE:

Mon Pac is easily dispersed in water based fluids by adding it directly through the hopper. Normal concentrations vary from 0.25 ppb to 1.0 ppb depending on application.

Mon Pac is packaged in 50-lb (22.7-kg) Multi-Ply paper bags with an inner poly liner for additional shelf-life and performance reliability.
