Surface-active agents, commonly referred to as surfactants, are chemical compounds that operate at the interface of immiscible phases. Within fracturing applications, surfactants play a pivotal role in mediating interactions between oil and water interfaces, whether within the stimulation fluid itself or between the stimulation fluid, the formation, and/or the formation fluids. Optimizing the surface tension, contact angle, and interfacial tension of fluids improves the performance of stimulation fluids in several areas. These surfactants function as wetting agents, flowback aids, fluid recovery agents, and dispersing agents, among other crucial roles.
Surface tension reducers are meticulously crafted surfactants designed to significantly diminish surface tension in a wide array of applications, including different types of acids, water-based fracturing fluids, and brines. Sunita offers engineered surfactants with remarkably low surface tensions compared to many alternatives on the market. Leveraging innovative processing techniques, these products yield exceptionally effective surfactants that, even at low concentrations, deliver substantial reductions in surface tension.
SUNCOL is a versatile product. It dissolves in both hot and cold water, exhibits strong hydrogen bonding, and has excellent thickening and stabilizing properties, making it an exceptional stabilizer. .
