Polyanionic Cellulose PAC-LV
UD Trading is a PAC-LV supplier in Australia. PAC-LV is a low-viscosity polyanionic cellulose used to control fluid loss in water-based drilling fluids without adding much viscosity. It is a white to off-white free-flowing powder supplied in 25 kg bags with a Certificate of Analysis.
Product Specifications
- Chemical Name: Polyanionic Cellulose – Low Viscosity
- Other Names: PAC-LV, PAC LV, PAC-L, low-viscosity PAC, drilling-grade polyanionic cellulose
- CAS No: 9004-32-4
Applications of PAC-LV
- Fluid loss (filtration) control in water-based drilling muds
- Fluid loss control in workover and completion fluids
- Use alongside PAC-HV where low added viscosity is required
Why buy from a PAC-LV supplier in Australia with ISO 9001 systems
PAC-LV is chosen when fluid loss must fall without raising mud viscosity. We supply it against a controlled specification under an ISO 9001:2015 certified quality system, with an SDS and batch COA. Our Brisbane-based team supports customers across Australia. See all our drilling fluid chemicals or contact us for a quote. Chemical identity reference: CAS 9004-32-4 on CAS Common Chemistry.
PAC-LV FAQ
What is the difference between PAC-LV and PAC-HV?
Both control fluid loss. PAC-HV also adds viscosity; PAC-LV controls fluid loss with minimal viscosity increase.
How is PAC-LV packed?
25 kg bags.
Do you supply PAC-HV as well?
Yes, see our PAC-HV page.
