Oil Pro QuARC 1095
Oil Pro QuARC 1095: A groundbreaking surfactant with unique properties, combining non-ionic and cationic benefits. Compatible with anionic materials, ideal for Oilfield applications like acidizing, fracturing, and production treatments. Proven emulsion-breaking, non-emulsifying, and surface modification capabilities. Effective in surfactant-only and micro-emulsion systems. Enhances demulsification in challenging crude oil emulsions with colloidal solids.
Product and Chemical Description
Product Name: QuARC 1095
Chemical Name: Polyquaternium ammonium chloride
Product Application and Uses:
QuARC 1095 is the first in a series of novel surfactants that exhibits a unique set of functional properties. It is a result of completely new, patent-pending chemistry developed at ARC Products Inc., that combines the positive functional qualities of both non-ionic and cationic surfactants into a product that is compatible with all anionic materials tested to date. QuARC 1095 was designed primarily to provide superior function in classic Oilfield applications such as Acidizing, Fracturing, and Production Chemical treatments. Anticipated and proven functional characteristics include: Emulsion-breaking and emulsion-preventing in ‘spent acid’, anionic/cationic/nonionic polymer, and surfactant-compatible non-emulsifying in fracturing fluids, improved flow back through rock surface modification and excellent performance in both surfactant-only and micro-emulsion systems. Its compatibility with anionic surfactants makes it an excellent candidate for needed functions in IOR, EOR, and production demulsifier systems. Early indications show that QuARC 1095 helps destabilize difficult crude oil emulsions that contain problematic colloidal solids, resulting in cleaner oil/water interfaces when emulsions are broken.
