Résumé : |
Water-dispersible polymer―silica nanocomposite particles, SiO2―ethylene oxide-based polymer nanoparticles hybrids, were synthesized using a "grafting-from" method, where polymer brushes were grown on silica nanoparticles using living radical polymerization. Water-soluble polymer chains were grown from initiator-tethered 15-nm silica nanopartides with ∼600 chains grafted per nanopartide, resulting in a surface grafting of∼1 chain per square nanometer. The single-phase and multiphase transport properties of low concentration brine dispersions of these polymer nanoparticles hybrids through a Berea sandstone core were measured. Experiments show that, while the viscosity increase is modest for dispersions with concentrations of 0.5― 2 wt % of the nanopartide hybrid, the dispersions were able to transport without hindrance through the porous media and, furthermore, were found to be effective at mobilizing waterflood residual oil. |
