Description
DSC HEC LINEAR GEL E is a pure, high viscosity hydroxyethyl cellulose polymer suspension in an environmentally safe base fluid. DSC HEC LINEAR GEL E exhibits an exceptionally stable and long lasting shelf life.

Application:
DSC HEC LINEAR GEL E does not form a sheen when mixed with various completion fluids and will pass the bucket sheen test. When DSC HEC LINEAR GEL E is mixed with completion fluids it has an oil and grease value that will meet the stringent MMS regulations. DSC HEC LINEAR GEL E exhibits good blending ability when admixed with low and high density brines.

Recommended Treatment:
DSC HEC LINEAR GEL E does not require any special mixing or handling procedures. Because of low shear rates required when mixing DSC HEC LINEAR GEL E, mild agitation is recommended while pouring the specified amount of DSC HEC LINEAR GEL E into the brine solution. In special applications such as in brine solutions containing low levels of Zinc ions, it is necessary to warm the brine solution prior to adding DSC HEC LINEAR GEL E to obtain the necessary viscosity values. DSC HEC LINEAR GEL E will impart the desired viscosity that should be measured by using the FANN 35 method. Please see the attached viscosity profile for detailed loading.

Packaging:
DSC HEC LINEAR GEL E is available in 5 gallon pails or 330 gallon tote tanks.
