Product Description

Slurry Bentonite 

The main component is montmorillonite, making up over 85%.

This special layered mineral structure gives the product excellent properties:

Great water absorption and swelling
Good suspension and gel stability
The product is a fine white or light yellow powder.
It has no smell and no impurities.
The particle size is very even.

It disperses quickly in water to form a thick gel.
This effectively meets the key needs of drilling fluid for viscosity, shear strength, and controlling fluid loss.

Product Features

1.Superior Water Absorption and Expansion
The product absorbs water quickly and swells up on contact.
It can expand 10 to 30 times its original size.
This forms a large, stable gel.
This gel effectively increases drilling mud thickness and suspension ability.
It prevents drill cuttings from sinking.

2.Superior Colloidal Stability
The layered structure of montmorillonite forms a very stable gel when mixed with water.
This gel does not separate or settle easily.
This is true even after long standing or strong shaking.
It ensures drilling fluid performance remains stable and lasts longer.

3.Excellent Filtration Loss Control
During drilling, the gel formed by the product creates a dense seal on the well wall.
This seal effectively reduces fluid loss from the mud.
It minimizes water seepage from the surrounding rock.
This protects wellbore stability and helps prevent collapse.

4.Outstanding Lubrication and Cooling
The bentonite gel in the fluid coats the drilling tools.
This forms a lubricating film that reduces friction against the wellbore.
It also helps carry away heat generated during drilling.
This extends the service life of the drilling tools.

5.Stable Chemical Tolerance
The product keeps stable performance under specific working conditions.
This includes within certain temperature ranges, pH levels (pH 6-11), and salt levels.
It resists breaking down or failing in these conditions.
This adaptability meets construction needs in various geological environments.

Product Applications

Thanks to its excellent overall performance, bentonite drilling mud is widely used in many fields.

1. Oil and Gas Drilling
It is a core part of water-based drilling fluids.
It suspends rock cuttings, stabilizes the wellbore, lubricates tools, and cools the drill bit.
It works for vertical, horizontal, and directional drilling.
It helps make deep drilling safe and efficient.

2. Geological Exploration and Mining
Used in projects like geological drilling and coalfield surveys.
Its mud prevents borehole collapse and carries core samples cleanly.
It improves drilling accuracy and efficiency.
This provides reliable data for geological analysis.

3. Water Well and Geothermal Drilling
Used in water well and geothermal projects.
Its excellent seal and stability reduce water seepage and protect the well structure.
This ensures the wellbore stays intact.

4. Underground Trenchless Engineering
Used in projects like horizontal drilling and pipe pushing.
The guidance mud lubricates drill pipes and conduits, stabilizes boreholes, and prevents ground sinking.
It is suitable for complex underground work in cities.

5. Other Applications
Also used in making mud for tunnel shields and foundation strengthening projects.
It provides stability, lubrication, and sealing functions.

Packaging & Shipping

 We offer very flexible packaging and shipping solutions to meet your needs:
If you are using it regularly, we recommend the standard packaging of 25kg/bag, using an inner film woven bag with good moisture resistance, easy handling and storage, ensuring that the goods are dry and delivered.
If you have a large usage and ton bag feeding equipment, we strongly recommend ton bags with a capacity of 1 ton, which can significantly save you packaging and handling costs per ton and increase unloading efficiency.

FAQ

1.Q: What are the main components of bentonite?
A: The main component of bentonite is montmorillonite, which is a natural silicate clay mineral. The higher the content of montmorillonite, the better the bonding, adsorption, and swelling properties of bentonite.
 
2.Q: Are you a production factory or a trading company? How to ensure product quality?
A: Thank you for your inquiry. We are a source manufacturer with self operated mining areas and modern production bases, achieving full chain quality control from mining to processing. All of our products have undergone strict laboratory testing, and we also support you in sending samples to any institution you specify for retesting. We have absolute confidence in the quality of our products.
 
3.Q: How do you view the future development trend of the bentonite industry?
A;We believe that the industry is developing towards three directions: refinement, functionalization, and environmental protection.
 
4.Q: I am a beginner and unsure which type of bentonite to choose. Can you provide any advice?
A: Of course you can! Please tell us your specific application areas (such as drilling, casting, feed, mud making, etc.)
 
5.Q: How long have you been in this industry? What markets are primarily served?
A: We have been deeply involved in the bentonite industry for over 15 years, with rich production experience and profound technical accumulation. Our products not only hold a significant market share in the domestic market, but also have stable exports to over 60 countries and regions worldwide, including Southeast Asia, the Middle East, Europe, and South America.
