AMC SUPERFOAM™

FOAMING AGENTS & DETERGENTS

Description
AMC SUPERFOAM™ is a biodegradable mixture of anionic surfactants Advantages
which has been formulated for use in the mineral and water well
• Rapidly generates high volumes of highly stable foam
drilling industries.

• Economical

Application
• Reduces borehole erosion when drilling poorly
AMC SUPERFOAM may be used in a variety of air drilling operations, consolidated formations
ranging from simple air drilling to stiff foam drilling where the foam is
reinforced by the use of polymers such as AMC LIQUI POL™, AMC EZEE • Improves hole cleaning and increases penetration rates
PAC R™ or AMC GUAR GUM™.

• Effective dust suppressant

Typical Physical Properties


• Reduces air requirements
Appearance: Fluorescent yellow liquid
Solubility: Soluble in water • Reduces the tendency of softer clays to stick together
pH: 7 – 9.5

• Environmentally acceptable.

Recommended Treatment
Mist Drilling
Please Note: Several factors will dictate the most appropriate concentration
AMC SUPERFOAM™ should be mixed with water at 0.25 – 0.5 % by
rate. Please contact your nearest AMC representative for optimum results.
voume and injected into the air stream. The rate of injection will depend
on hole size, compressor output and water flow rate etc.

Foam Drilling
If water flow rates are high and compressor limits are reached, up to 0.5
– 2.0 % by volume of AMC SUPERFOAM™. This can also be poured neat
down the rod string at each rod change, at 1 – 2L.

Stiff Foam Drilling


Stiff foam applications include areas of severe lost circulation, large di-
ameter holes and unconsolidated formations. Stiff foam can be prepared
by injecting a base slurry of 35 – 45 seconds per litre viscosity fluid
prepared as follows:

Mix AMC 206™, 1 – 2kg per 1000L or AMC EZEE PAC R™, 2 – 4 kg per
1000L and AMC SUPERFOAM™ 10 – 15L per 1000L.
