Emulsifiers
Emulsification is an important function during the production of many oilfield products. Whether it's drilling fluids or enabling the dispersion of water-insoluble materials into aqueous systems.
The emulsifiers offered by Lankem can be used to formulate stable emulsions for use in a broad range of application. The following is a selection of the products that find application as emulsifiers in oilfield applications:
-
Kemsurf CA, Kemsurf PWS, Kemsurf OT60, Kemsurf OT70G, Lansurf AE33, Lansurf AE35, Lansurf AE37, Lansurf CDE-G, Lansurf CO12, Lansurf CO40, Lansurf SMO, Lansurf STO, Lansurf SMO80 and Lansurf SMO81 are effective emulsifiers for a broad range of oils into both water in oil and oil in water emulsions.
