High-Purity Potassium Formate 97% | CAS 590-29-4 | REACH Registered | ISO Certified
Product Description:
Potassium Formate 97% (CAS 590-29-4) for oilfield drilling fluids, completion brines and snow deicing. REACH registered, ISO certified, bulk supply available.
Potassium Formate 97% is a high-purity potassium salt of formic acid designed for demanding industrial applications, particularly oilfield drilling and completion fluids, wellbore stabilization, and snow and ice melting.
With excellent water solubility and the ability to produce high-density formate brines, potassium formate is widely used as a chloride-free brine component for drilling, completion and workover operations. It is also suitable for liquid and solid deicing formulations where effective low-temperature ice and snow control is required.
Our Potassium Formate 97% is available for international bulk supply and is supported by REACH registration and ISO-certified quality management.

Potassium formate is an important component of modern formate-based drilling and completion fluids.
Its high solubility allows the preparation of concentrated brines with relatively high density while maintaining a clear, solids-free fluid system. Industry references report saturated potassium formate brine densities of approximately 1.57 g/cm³ (13.1 ppg) at 20°C.
Drilling Fluids
Potassium formate can be used as the base salt for water-based drilling fluids, particularly where high-density and solids-free fluid systems are required.
Completion Fluids
Potassium formate brines are used in completion operations where fluid density, crystallization temperature, formation compatibility and wellbore stability are important.
Workover Fluids
Concentrated potassium formate brines can be formulated for workover and well-servicing operations.
Drill-In Fluids
Formate systems can help provide high-density, low-solids drilling environments and can be formulated for demanding HPHT applications.
Research and industry literature describe potassium formate as useful for shale stabilization and inhibition of clay swelling, while formate brines are used in high-density drilling and completion systems.
Potassium formate is also used in snow and ice melting applications, particularly where an alternative to conventional chloride-based deicing salts is required.
It can be formulated into liquid or concentrated deicing solutions and has been studied as a deicing salt for roads and other transportation surfaces.
