Abstract: This invention provides a water-free oil based fluid polymer suspension composition for use as a rheology modifier and fluid loss reducer in oil or gas well servicing fluids. It has been found that by using white medicinal oil as a carrier, high solids content and environmental friendly anhydrous fluidized polymer suspensions of xanthan gum, cellulose ethers, guar gum and derivatives thereof can be prepared. More specifically, in one aspect, an oil-based fluid polymer suspension (FPS) composition for use in oil or gas well servicing fluids is preferred containing: a) a hydrophilic polymer, b) an organophilic clay, c) a stabilizer, and d) a white medicinal oil having selected properties.

Abstract: The present invention relates to compositions and use of water-soluble or water-dispersible copolymers for oil field applications. Specifically, the present invention relates to polymers containing allyloxy linkage andits functional dervatives for use in oil field applications as fluid additives for drilling and cementing processes.

Abstract: A fluid abrasive suspension composition has an abrasive, suspending vehicle, and a water-swellable or water-soluble polymer. This composition is used to make a stable dentifrice formulation.

Abstract: Composition comprising water soluble polymer, such as cellulose ethers, guar, or derivatives thereof and surfactant, such as sorbitan esters, improves dispersibility of polymer in aqueous media.

Abstract: There are disclosed stable fluidized polymer suspensions containing cationic polysaccharide, stabilizing agent and emollient. The preferred cationic polysaccharides are cationic guar and cationic hydroxypropyl guar, and preferred emollients are hydrocarbons, silicone oils and esters. Processes for preparing personal care compositions utilizing the fluidized polymer suspensions are also disclosed. Using the fluidized polymer suspensions in the processes provides the advantages of more rapid dissolution and avoidance of lumps and gels when compared to using dry, powdered cationic polysaccharides.
