Crosslinkers
Crosslinkers Formulated Optimize Performance & Minimize Water Requirements

As an industry leader in crosslinker technology for over 30 years, we know a thing or two about the consistent controlled performance our customers have come to expect from our crosslinkers. Choose from a wide range of applications with aqueous and non-aqueous formulations designed to reach peak viscosity within time, temperature, pressure, and pH constraints. Select Chemistry crosslinkers are supported by our lab team to fine tune performance in conventional freshwater fluids as well as brine–based fluids used in water treatment programs.
