Mayosperse® 6000 is a cationic ionene-type polymer designed to effectively break oil-in-water emulsions across a wide pH range. This liquid solution polymer is easy to dilute, making it versatile and convenient for various industrial applications, including oil and gas production and wastewater treatment. It not only destabilizes emulsions, facilitating the separation of oil from water, but also provides additional coagulation and clarification benefits, improving the overall efficiency of liquid treatment processes. With its user-friendly jar testing procedure, it offers a reliable and effective solution for emulsified oil removal and water clarification.

Product Properties
  • Mayosperse® 6000 is a cationic ionene-type polymer designed for use as an oil-in-water emulsion breaker.
  • Typical dose levels range from 30-100 ppm; the presence of emulsifying surfactants may necessitate a high initial dose.
  • Overfeeding Mayosperse® 6000 can re-emulsify the oil; jar testing is necessary to determine optimum doses.
  • Best results occur between pH 8.0 and 9.0; use caustic to adjust the waste emulsion to the desired pH range.
  • Following Mayosperse® 6000 addition, add 40-100 ppm of an inorganic coagulant such as aluminum sulfate or sodium aluminate to enhance separation. If necessary, add a high molecular weight anionic polymer to facilitate rapid flocculation.
  • Jar testing Mayosperse® 6000 is simple and can be accomplished via gang stirrer or shaker bottles.
