Starch and Synthetic Polymers in Drilling by Anonymous H9n5g3aaCE is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Starch derivatives and (HP) starch are natural polymers that can be used in drilling fluids. Synthetic polymers are also commonly used and have advantages over natural polymers like being tailored for specific functions. Common synthetic polymers used in drilling fluids include polyacrylate (SPA), partially hydrolyzed polyacrylamide (PHPA), and sulfonated styrene maleic anhydride (SSMA). These synthetic polymers provide benefits like temperature stability, fluid loss control, and shale inhibition.
