Riteks RCD-4 provides superior dispersing power compared to conventional dispersants up to minimum 250°F (120°C). RCD-4 is a high-range water-reducing admixture powder utilizing superior polycarboxylate chemistry to achieve low and stable rheology at significantly lower dosage rates than with standard dispersants.

This chemistry also offer a very high salt tolerance up to 18% NaCl & widens the field of potential applications significantly. RCD-4 can show retarding properties, although is often used in CaCl2 accelerated cement slurries and aids in reducing shrinkage during accelerated cement set.

Features and Benefits

• Provides turbulent flow properties, improving mud cleanup, and cement bonding
• Facilitates mixing of high-density, reduces-water slurries
• Reduces mixing and final slurry viscosity
• Provides less retardation than conventional dispersants, resulting in earlier strength development
• Inhibits viscosifying effects caused by some fluid loss and gas control additives
• Improves annular displacement, reducing cement contaminiation
• Improves the performance of gas control and fluid loss additives
• Improves bonding to the formation and pipe
• Compatible with virtually all API, ASTM, and pozzolan cements and most Riteks cement additives
