Microfume 102 DM

Densified Silica Fume
JUMP TO

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

Microfume™ 102DM is a densified silica fume additive designed for use in oilwell cementing systems. Produced from highly reactive amorphous silicon dioxide, this material provides extremely fine particles with a large surface area that enhance cement performance under demanding well conditions. Microfume™ 102DM improves the long-term strength and durability of cement sheaths by reducing permeability and refining the microstructure. The densified form offers easier handling, blending, and bulk transport compared to undensified grades. Densified, constant PH, amorphous light grey silicon oxide powder, obtained by filtering the dusts extracted from the production of silicon metal in an electric arc furnace.

APPLICATIONS & BENEFITS

Recommendations

APPLICATIONS & BENEFITS
  • Strength enhancement: Increases compressive strength through pozzolanic reaction with calcium hydroxide, forming additional calcium silicate hydrates.
  • Durability improvement: Lowers permeability to aggressive fluids, enhancing resistance to chemical attack (e.g., CO₂, H₂S).
  • Lightweight or high-density cement systems: Compatible with a wide range of weighting agents and extenders.
  • Safety: Product totally amorphous. Safety data sheet available on request.
