ABSTRACT:
Granular sodium bentonite particles in the size range of 8 mesh to 20 mesh, preferably in the size range of 8 mesh to 14 mesh, are coated with a solution of a copolymer of polyacrylamide and polyacrylate (PHPA) in a liquid emulsion form, including mineral oil as a carrier fluid, in proportions of 67% and 33%, by weight, respectively. The coated particles are mixed with water in proportions of 17-30 gallons, preferably 28 gallons, of water to each 50 pounds of coated particles to form a slurry, which is then pumped into an earth borehole to seal, gout or plug the borehole.
