  • Can polyacrylamide be used as a thickener in water-based fracturing fluids?
  • Polyacrylamide (HPAM) is commonly used as a thickener in water-based fracturing fluids due to its good solubility and thickening ability. However, drawbacks such as the formation of high temperature and high salinity in oil and gas production currently limit its use as a thickening agent for fracturing fluids.
  • Which polymer is used as thickener in the presence of Ca2+ or Na+?
  • Hydrophobic-associated polymer is widely used as thickener in the presence of Ca 2+ or Na +. Three polymers including partially hydrolyzed polyacrylamide (HPAM) and hydrophobically associating polymers (CHAP and CBHAP) were used to clarify the thickening mechanism.
  • Is acrylamide a thickening agent?
  • It is synthetic linear, cross linked or a mixture of acrylamide and acrylic acid, normally using N.N′-methylenebisacrylamide ( Kanna et al., 2017 ). It is an excellent thickening agent that involved in the water solubility, chemical flooding, plugging agent and others ( Lyu et al., 2019 ).
  • Can DSAM polymers be used as thickeners for fracturing fluids?
  • DSAM polymer exhibited excellent shear resistance, with temperature resistance up to 120 °C, and the properties of glue-breaking fluid satisfy the industry requirements. Therefore, DSAM polymers can be used as thickeners for temperature- and salt-resistant fracturing fluids.
