FAQ Section
Q: How does Wax Prevention Viscosity Reducer work?
A: Wax Prevention Viscosity Reducer contains special polymeric components that interfere with wax crystal formation. These molecules attach to wax crystals as they begin to form, preventing them from growing large enough to cause deposition. For viscosity reduction, the product modifies the crude oil's rheological properties, making it flow more easily even at lower temperatures.
Q: What is the recommended storage condition for Wax Prevention Viscosity Reducer?
A: Wax Prevention Viscosity Reducer should be stored in original sealed containers at temperatures between 5°C and 40°C. Keep away from direct sunlight and sources of ignition. Under proper storage conditions, the product maintains its effectiveness for up to 24 months from manufacturing date.
Q: Can Wax Prevention Viscosity Reducer be used with other flow improvers?
A: Yes, Wax Prevention Viscosity Reducer is compatible with most common pipeline flow improvers. However, we recommend conducting compatibility tests when combining with other chemicals, especially at high concentrations. Our technical team can provide guidance on optimal formulation combinations for specific operational conditions.
