TL;DR: A series of small molecular clay swelling inhibitor was prepared with tartaric acid and amines, presented as amine-tartaric salts (ATS) as discussed by the authors, which is the best inhibitor of the hydration expansion and dispersion of bentonite.

TL;DR: In this paper, a crude oil containing high paraffin from Yanchang Oilfield was studied for the situ waxing inhibition as an example in this work, and the components were separated using silica gel column chromatography by different eluent and were named A1 to A14.

TL;DR: Cetyl trimethyl ammonium chloride (CTAC), cetyl triconitrile ammonium bromide (CTAB), and octadecyl trimethylammonium chloride(OTAC) were evaluated as clean flow improvers for crude oil as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: Compared with control, FCLS-2 displayed high inhibitive ability against the hydrating and swelling processes of clay, and the swelling degree of samples with FCLs-2 was much lower than that of the control, as well as the mud ball was more stable in FCLL-2 solution.
