  • Can nonionic polyacrylamide be used as a gel fracturing fluid?
  • Nonionic polyacrylamide (NPAM) with controlled molecular weight was successfully synthesized as a gel fracturing fluid by aqueous solution polymerization.
  • What causes nonionic polyacrylamide adsorption?
  • Nonionic polyacrylamide adsorption on clay minerals is mainly caused by van der Waals forces , whereas cationic or anionic forms adsorb and bind soil particles through electrostatic forces or bridge formation between PAM charged moieties and solid surface group [1, 80].
  • What is a nonionic polyacrylamide?
  • Despite being described as nonionic synthetic polyacrylamides obtained as a result of polymerization or copolymerization of acrylamides, often contain in their macromolecules about 1–3% of anionic groups . These groups are formed as a result of monomer amide groups hydrolysis.
  • Which comonomer is used for the production of anionic polyacrylamides?
  • The workhorse comonomer for the production of anionic polyacrylamides is acrylate salts of acrylic acid. These anionic polymers can be prepared as various mono- and divalent metal salts and other positively charged inorganic and organic counterions of the polymerization of acrylic acid with acrylamide (see Fig. 34.4 ).
