Abstract
- The stability of phenol–formaldehyde resin (nHAP) in the oil displacement process influences its flooding and profile control capabilities. There aren't many studies that compare how various surfactants affect PFR stability. The surfactants CTAB, Tween 60, and SDS were selected as representative ones. To look at the changes in stability, spectral turbidity and dynamic light scattering experiments were employed. It was found that the cationic surfactant CTAB can connect with the surface of PFR, just as metal cations, lowering electrostatic repulsion and facilitating the aggregation of PFR composite molecules. Anionic and nonionic surfactants both have some degree of system stability stabilizing properties. When Tween 60 and SDS adsorbed on the surface of the PFR molecule formed a hydrogen bond network with the hydroxymethyl or phenolic hydroxyl group, for example by hydrogen bond interaction, the PFR molecule's dispersion stability was increased. The Tween 60 and PFR composite systems have bigger particle sizes in addition to being more stable. Additionally, the energy barrier of the Tween 60/PFR composite system is determined using the modified DLVO theory for Lewis acid–base hydration, and it is discovered to be consistent with the experimental findings. The findings demonstrate that the stability of the composite system can be impacted by changes in the hydrophilicity and hydrophobicity of the composite system. The findings demonstrate that the stability of the composite system can be impacted by changes in the hydrophilicity and hydrophobicity of the composite system. Understanding the co-migration of PFR and surface activity during oil displacement depends heavily on the data. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
