CONTROL® I-166 Polymer
Grain Processing Corporation’s CONTROL® I-166 polymer is used as a depressant in the phosphate beneficiation process to increase the efficiency of the flotation separation.
Benefits
- All-natural organic polymer (liquid starch paste)
- Significant improvement of phosphate recovery in the beneficiation process
- Ease of use
- No cooking necessary
- Long-term stability under varied conditions
- Addition rates of less than 0.1% are effective
Oil Well Drilling applications
Filtration Control Agents
- CONTROL® I-99F polymer is a modified non-pregelatinized corn starch
- CONTROL® I-10F polymer is a corn starch designed for lime-based drilling fluids incurring minimum bottom hole temperatures of 150°F
- CONTROL® I-166 provides immediate functionality because of its liquid monomolecular dispersion
Shale Control Agents and Thinners
- CONTROL® I-166 polymer also provides shale control
- CONTROL® 1920 polymer is a deflocculant. It is a non-dispersive thinner designed for lime-based drilling fluids and can control calcium solubility
