Advantages of NC100KH
Excellent Thickening Performance
Provides stable viscosity for water-based systems, optimizes construction performance and product effects.
Good Suspension and Dispersion Effects
Ensures uniform distribution of solid particles to avoid sedimentation and stratification.
Excellent Salt Resistance
Particularly suitable for complex environments such as oil drilling, showing good stability.
Main Application Areas and Advantages of NC100KH

Oil Drilling
- Mud thickening and stabilization: Used as a thickener in drilling fluid and completion fluid to improve the fluidity and stability of drilling mud.
- Suspension and sand carrying performance: Ensure efficient carrying of drill cuttings, optimize drilling efficiency, and reduce operating costs.
- Salt and high temperature resistance: Maintain stable performance in high salinity and high temperature environments to meet demanding oil drilling requirements.
- Improve construction performance: Optimize the brushing effect of real stone paint and the leveling performance of exterior latex paint to avoid sagging and brush marks.
- Enhance paint film performance: Improve the adhesion, durability and weather resistance of the paint film to make the coating more durable.
- Optimize particle suspension: Ensure that the sand particles in the real stone paint are evenly distributed, giving the coating a delicate texture.

Real Stone Paint and Exterior Latex Paint

Textile Printing and Dyeing
- Thickening additives: Used as a thickener in printing paste to ensure clear pattern lines and uniform colors.
- Fiber protection: Improve the adsorption of dyes, protect fiber structure, and improve the quality of printing and dyeing products.
- Improve process efficiency: Improve the controllability and consistency of the printing and dyeing process by stabilizing the operating process.
- Pulp sizing agent: Improve the paper surface's smoothness and printing adaptability and product quality.
- Enhance paper strength: Optimize the tear resistance of paper, making it more durable in a variety of scenarios.
- Reduce dust problems in production and improve the operating environment.
