A new polyelectrolyte (SPU) has been prepared. It can depress the water-loss of drilling-mud much more effective than the commonly used acrylic polyelectrolytes even in 30% NaCl solution. SPU has phenyl group in the backbone with -SO_3^- in the side chain while the acrylic polyelectrolytes have C—C and -COO^- respectively, there exists an intrinsic relationship between the structure of polymer and its tolerance to salts, it has been found: 1) The adsorption amount of polymer on clay is related closely to the flexibility of polymer chain. 2) The salt-tolerance of -SO_3^- is superior to -COO-. 3) Both SPU-mud and HPAN-mud are plastic fluids. The dependence of yield point on salts relates to the molecular weight of polymer and hydration of ionogenic group, which is quite different for SPU-mud and HPAN-mud. 4 ) The extent of raising zeta-potential of base-mud by SPU is greater than by HPAN, but the extent of dropping zeta-potential of SPU-mud by NaCI is smaller than HPAN-mud. According to these results we suppose the salt-tolerance of SPU-mud is attributed mainly to hydration of -SO_3^- and that of HPAN-mud mainly to network structure formed in the drilling-mud.
