Partially Hydrolyzed Polyacrylamide (PHPA)

Partially Hydrolyzed Polyacrylamide (PHPA) is a high-performance drilling fluid polymer used for shale inhibition, borehole stabilization, viscosity enhancement, and fluid loss control in water-based drilling fluid systems.

Product Introduction

Partially hydrolyzed polyacrylamide (PHPA) possesses excellent shale inhibition, wellbore stabilization, coating and dispersion, thickening, and filtration reduction properties. It effectively prevents shale hydration swelling, reduces drill cuttings dispersion, improves drilling fluid cuttings carrying capacity, and ensures safe and efficient drilling operations.

PHPA forms a protective film on the wellbore surface, enhancing wellbore stability and reducing the risk of wellbore collapse, borehole narrowing, and stuck pipe. The product exhibits good salt and calcium resistance, is compatible with various drilling fluid treatment agents, and is suitable for freshwater, seawater, and high-salinity water-based drilling fluid systems.

Jinxiang Chemical’s PHPA is manufactured using high-quality raw materials and advanced polymerization technology, resulting in stable product quality. It can be widely used in drilling projects for oil, natural gas, shale gas, coalbed methane, and geothermal wells.
