Synthesis and evaluation of novel water-soluble copolymers based on acrylamide and modular β-cyclodextrin.

Highlights: [•] Modular β-cyclodextrin water-soluble copolymers were prepared for EOR. [•] The copolymers were characterized by IR, 1H NMR SEM, XRD, core flood test, etc. [•] The copolymers showed excellent shear, temperature resistance and salt tolerance. [•] The results of EOR and MMT crystalline interspace were remarkable. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
