Thixotropic evaluation of bentonitic clay dispersions modified with nonionic surfactants for organic drilling fluids

Abstract The use of nonionic surfactants to modify the surface of bentonite is still quite restricted, although many advantages of that method can be found in the literature, like superior stability and low toxicity. On the other hand, problems involving the fluidity and viscosity of dispersions use...
