Suspension & Thixotropic Additives

Temperature-thinning and shear-thinning behaviors—critical to maintaining a proper rheological hierarchy—are often overlooked or inadequately addressed.

Unfortunately, conventional additives frequently fall short, failing to deliver the necessary suspension, stability, and thixotropic control required to support wellbore integrity and cementing performance.

At Riteks, we recognize the need for dependable, chemistry-driven solutions that exceed industry expectations. That’s why we offer a full line of suspension & thixotropic additives, including our multipurpose thixotropic cement additive THIX-C2, engineered to resolve these operational challenges head-on.

Our thixotropic cement additives provide a range of advantages: they help control free water, enhance early strength development, prevent cement fallback, and do so without accelerating set times at low temperatures. THIX-C2 also reduces a slurry’s SGS TrT (Static Gel Strength Transition Time), minimizing the window for contamination before the cement fully sets.

Integrating these additives into your cementing program delivers measurable value. You’ll achieve improved long-term zonal isolation, reduced channeling, and decreased production losses and remedial costs—ultimately supporting greater efficiency and a more reliable cementing operation overall.

Backed by decades of industry expertise, Riteks remains committed to delivering high-quality, purpose-built chemical solutions that address your most pressing challenges.
