The granted patent (Publication Number: US11873443B2) discloses a liquid composition comprising a lignin sulfonic acid-based compound, an aromatic water-soluble compound, and a reaction product of the two. The composition, when dried and dissolved in water, forms a first aqueous solution with specific nonvolatile content concentration and B type viscosity. The reaction product must have an anionic functional group and a polyalkylene oxide chain with a certain average addition ole number. The composition is obtained by reacting the two compounds at a specific weight ratio, with the reaction rate being at least 80%.

Furthermore, the patent claims a dispersing agent made from the liquid composition, suitable for applications in oil field drilling mud or hydraulic compositions. The dispersing agent is used in a hydraulic composition containing a hydraulic material. The method for producing the liquid composition involves reacting the two compounds, while a method for producing a composition includes preparing the liquid composition and drying it to obtain a granular product with specific particle size characteristics. The reaction rate is defined as a mass ratio of the aromatic water-soluble compound forming the reaction product to the total aromatic water-soluble compounds present in the composition.
