APPLICATION
QUIMAGEL XG It is mainly used in the drilling of granular material, clays and silts, as long as the medium is not very acidic (pH>5.5). In aqueous solution it forms a highly viscous gel whose main applications are:
- Facilitate drilling due to its “lubricant” effect.
- Support and give more stability to the borehole walls.
- Avoid siphoning when drilling confined groundwater tables at very low pressure.
- Facilitate the extraction of detritus from inside the borehole.
- Facilitate the cooling of the bit or drill bit.
