Research status in Hydrophobically Associating Hydrolyzed Polyacrylamide Reporter:Xubngyue Abstract Water-soluble polymers are known to be used in chemically enhanced oil recovery (EOR) processes, but their applications are limited in high-temperature and high-salinity oil reservoirs because of their inherent poor salt tolerance and weak thermal stability.Hydrophobic association of partially hydrolyzed polyacryamide (HAHPAM) complexed with silica nanoparticles to prepare nano-hybrids is reported in this work.The rheological and enhanced oil recovery (EOR) properties of such hybrids were studied in comparison with HAHPAM under simulated high-temperature and high-salinity oil reservoir conditions(T: 85 °C; total dissolved solids: 32,868 mg?L?1; [Ca2+] + [Mg2+]:873 mg?L?1).It was found that the apparent viscosity and elastic modulus of HAHPAM solutions increased with addition of silica nanoparticles, and HAHPAM/silica hybrids exhibit better shear resistance and long-term thermal stability than HAHPAM in synthetic brine. 1、Major limitations of HPAM Major limitations of HPAM 1）The main problem of HPAM in the oilfield application is its poor heat tolerance and salt resistance performance, which limit its applications in the high-temperature and high-salinity oil reservoirs. 2）In addition the interaction of metal ions such as Na+ and K+ in the oilfield brines largely shields the mutual repulsion from the carboxylic groups along the HPAM skeleton,leading to the polymer coils to collapse and the hydrodynamic volume to decrease, ultimately lowering the solution viscosity. 3）Another major limitation of HPAM is its flow-induced mechanical degradation because of its shear-thinning behavior. 2、Recently 1)To obviate the limitations of HPAM, many laboratories have been active in developing HPAM with improved thermal stability, shear stability and salinity tolerance.
