Lignosulfonates are used as an additive in drilling fluids to prevent clay swelling and degradation of the fluid by bacteria. It also helps to stabilize mud weight, improve filtration control and reduce formation damage. Lignosulfonates can also be used for lost circulation material (LCM) additives in oilfield operations. LCMs are materials that are added to a drilling fluid to prevent the loss of drilling fluid into porous and permeable formations. They can also be used as a weighting agent to increase the density of the drilling fluids, which helps to keep the wellbore open during drilling.
Lignosulfonates are widely used as animal feed additives. The main functions of lignosulfonates in animal feed are to improve the digestibility and absorption of nutrients, enhance the growth performance and carcass quality of animals, and to reduce environmental pollution. Lignosulfonate-based animal feed additives have been shown to be more effective than traditional feed additives in terms of improving digestibility and absorption of nutrients, promoting growth performance and carcass quality, and reducing the environmental pollution. In addition, lignosulfonates are also known to have anti-inflammatory effects on animals. Therefore, lignosulfonates are increasingly being used as animal feed additives in many countries.
