ALCOMER® 72L is a concentrated, aqueous solution of an acrylate polymer that functions as a deflocculant and dispersant for drilling fluids. It adsorbs on aggregated clay particles to reduce viscosity and gel strengths. It provides benefits such as low toxicity, thermal stability to 200°C, performance over a wide pH range, and contribution to fluid loss control.

ALCOMER® 72L is a concentrated, aqueous solution of an acrylate polymer. It functions by
adsorbing on aggregated clay particles in the drilling fluid and dispersing them, thus reducing viscosity and gel strengths.
FEATURES AND BENEFITS:
• Provides low toxicity and thermal stability to 200°C.
• Performs over a wide pH range and is non-foaming. • Cost effective compared to other types of thinners and will contribute to fluid loss control. • Designed for use as a rheological control agent in water-based muds. • Proven effective in fresh water bentonite muds, K2SO4/KCl polymer muds, Gyp and salt muds. • Can tolerate up to 1000 mg/L free calcium without loss of performance; efficiency improved by the presence of moderate levels of calcium.
