RESUMO

Resumo As características físico-químicas dos cátions podem ser capazes de modificar as propriedades reológicas das argilas bentoníticas, como suas cargas, tamanhos dos cátions trocáveis adsorvidos nos argilominerais, comportamentos de hidratação e diferentes intercalações com as camadas estruturais da bentonita, sendo um fator importante considerar o efeito dos cátions presentes sobre a reologia de dispersões de argilas bentoníticas. Desta forma, o objetivo desse trabalho foi estudar a influência do Ca2+ nas propriedades reológicas e de filtração de dispersões de novas ocorrências de argilas bentoníticas do estado da Paraíba, Brasil, em fluidos de perfuração aquosos. Quatro argilas bentoníticas foram selecionadas, sendo caracterizadas química, física e mineralogicamente. As argilas foram aditivadas com carbonato de sódio e estudados os comportamentos reológicos e de filtração de suas dispersões. Os resultados mostraramm a influência direta do Ca2+ presente e suas implicações, resultantes de interações físico-químicas, nas propriedades reológicas e de filtração de dispersões de argilas bentoníticas.Abstract The physicochemical characteristics of cations may be able to modify the rheological properties of bentonite clays, such as their loads, exchangeable cation sizes adsorbed on clay minerals, hydration behaviors and different intercalations with the bentonite structural layer effect of the cations present on the rheology of dispersions of bentonite clays. In this way, the objective was to study the influence of Ca2+ on the rheological and filtration properties of dispersions of new occurrences of bentonite clays from the State of Paraíba, Brazil, in aqueous drilling fluids. Four bentonite clays were selected, being characterized chemically, physically and mineralogically. Sodium carbonate was then added to the clays, and the rheological and filtration behavior of their dispersions were studied. The results showed the direct influence of the Ca2+ present and its implications, resulting from physicochemical interactions, on the rheological and filtration properties of dispersions of bentonite clays.
