Two-Component Resin System
ARCTICBOND utilizes a specifically formulated two-component resin system, allowing chemical-activated bonding of the proppant pack even at low temperatures.
ARTICBOND
ARCTICBOND is a resin-coated sand proppant, designed for effective flowback control in low-stress, low-temperature environments. Using a two-component resin system with a chemical activator, ARCTICBOND forms strong, flexible bonds in the proppant pack without needing high temperature or compression. This proppant is ideal for coal bed methane and coal seam gas applications, maintaining pack integrity under stress cycles and preventing flowback. Compatible with most frac fluids, ARCTICBOND also remains stable in storage, simplifying operational processes.
