Journal ArticleDOI
Polymeric surfactants for enhanced oil recovery: A review
TL;DR: A review of the literature shows that the use of polymeric surfactants as displacing fluid has the potential to improve the performances of chemical enhanced oil recovery in some cases, but the synthesis are often challenging and costly and the available data about the real performances of such systems in oil recovery are still sparse.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polymeric Surfactants : Synthesis, Properties, and Links to Applications
Journal ArticleDOI
Chemical enhanced oil recovery and the role of chemical product design
TL;DR: The use of chemical products such as polymers, surfactants, alkalis and polymeric polyactants has been continuously increasing during the last decades as discussed by the authors and these chemicals should be designed to withstand the harsh conditions present in the reservoir (e.g., dissolved salts, pH, temperature, presence of bacteria) and increase the efficiency of the process.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chain extension and branching of poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) with di- and multifunctional epoxy or isocyanate additives: An experimental and modelling study
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of two difunctional chain extenders, 1,6-diisocyanatohexane (NCO) and 1,4-butanediol diglycidyl ether (EPOX), in the reactive melt-processing of a post-consumer poly(ethylene terephthalate) (r-PET) was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Acrylamide Homopolymers and Acrylamide–N-Isopropylacrylamide Block Copolymers by Atomic Transfer Radical Polymerization in Water
TL;DR: In situ chain extension experiments, carried out by addition of a second fresh batch of monomer to the reaction mixture, confirmed the living nature of the polymerization.
