Diutan gum belongs to a class of rheology modifying

Diutan gum was developed specifically for use with cementitious materials and the newest class of superplasticizers. It enables formulators and designers to improve the performance of hardened materials by controlling flow, segregation, sedimentation and bleed. In addition, diutan develops a higher degree of pseudoplasticity, greater low shear rate viscosity (LSRV), and improved viscosity retention at elevated temperatures when compared to traditional polymeric rheology modifiers used in drilling, workover or completion fluids.

Application:

Diutan gum biopolyer is a high efficiency, pseudoplastic viscosifier and suspension agent used in water based drilling, workover and completion fluids. Welan gum is also used in construction applications and other general industrial uses.
