Fracsal FR-153

DESCRIPTION

Fracsal FR-153 is an anionic, very high molecular weight polyacrylamide-based emulsion, which is designed to reduce friction and drag in water-based fracturing fluids.  Fracsal FR-153 is typically added at concentrations ranging from 1.0 to 2.0 gal/1,000 gal (1.0 to 2.0 L/m3).  Fracsal FR-153 packaging can be customized to meet specific requirements.

FEATURES

  • Rapid friction reduction
  • Easily dispersed in guar solutions
  • Lessens pumping pressure
