The pH for the water-based drilling fluid based on bentonite significantly affects the mud rheology. The shear stress and shear rate relation were varying with the change in the pH. Increasing the pH from 8 to 12 resulted in decreasing the plastic viscosity by 53% and the yield point by 82%, respectively.

Usually a "drilling mud" such as fluid bentonite clay is injected into the bore during cutting and reaming to stabilize the bore hole and remove soil cuttings. Drilling mud can be made from clay or polymers. If clay represents a large component of the native soil in the construction site, a polymer additive may be more appropriate.

This expansion helps down hole formations to be sealed from invading drilling fluids. The Drilling bentonite extracts the drill cuttings from around the drill bit, which are then floated to the surface. Bentonite also serves to cool and lubricate the drill bit as well as seals the drill hole against seepage and to prevent wall cave-ins.

Bentonite is mixed with water to form a slurry that is pumped through the drill string and out through the drill bit. The drilling mud helps to cool and lubricate the drill bit, and due to its high viscosity and yield strength, it extracts drill cuttings, carrying them to the surface, and helps to seal the drill hole and to prevent wall cave-ins.
