Sodium formate is a chemical compound with diverse applications in industries such as textiles, agriculture, and de-icing. It is commonly used as a reducing agent in the textile and leather industries during the dyeing and tanning processes, helping to achieve vibrant and lasting colors while also improving the softness and quality of materials. Additionally, sodium formate is utilized as a de-icing agent on roads and runways, effectively melting ice and snow due to its ability to lower the freezing point of water. Its versatility and effectiveness in various industrial contexts make sodium formate a valuable chemical compound with wide-ranging practical uses.

Potassium formate is a chemical compound with the formula HCOOK, consisting of potassium cations and formate anions. It is a versatile chemical primarily used in drilling fluids for the oil and gas industry, where it serves as a high-density brine to control wellbore pressure, prevent blowouts, and enhance drilling efficiency. Potassium formate brine is an environmentally friendly alternative to traditional oil-based drilling fluids. It also finds applications in de-icing solutions for runways and highways due to its low environmental impact. In addition, potassium formate is used as a reducing agent in various chemical processes and as a corrosion inhibitor in some industries. Its multifaceted utility, particularly in drilling operations and de-icing, highlights its significance in promoting safety and efficiency while minimizing environmental concerns.

Product Description Potassium Formate is chemically represented by the formula KCOOH. Potassium Formate is available as stock, clear fluid which can be used in workover and completion operations that require a density to 13.2ppg(1.58SG) and a base liquid for drill-in fluids. Formate-base brines are considered to have better HSE characteristics than chlorides and bromides brines for many applications. Although more expensive than alternative brines, potassium formate brines show excellent thermal stabilization effects on natural polymers and the potassium ions provides excellent clay stabilization and swelling inhibition of shales. Sodium formate is available as a dry-sacked material and as a stock liquid. Applications/Functions Used in workover and completion operations that require clear fluids with a density up to 13.2ppg Used as a base liquid for drill-in fluids Widely used in slim hole drilling, horizontal wells, branch hole drilling and stringent environmental requirements area Advantages Excellent clay stabilization and swelling inhibition of shales Compatible with other drilling fluids additives Saturated solution is 76% w/w and readily soluble Low activity of aqueous solution provides enhanced hole stability High core permeability with minimal reservoir damage Environmentally friendly product Typical Properties Appearance: Clear liquid or white crystal; Specific gravity of solid: 1.91; Solution pH: 9-11; Solubility in water: 310g/100ml water at 77�°F Recommended Treatment Drilling conditions and mud system requirements dictate concentration levels Package 1 MT BIG BAG or 1000L IBC TOTES
