  • What type of polyacrylamide is used in oil industry?
  • The polyacrylamide use can be anionic, cationic, or nonionic with various ratios of the comonomers used in the case of the anionic and cationic polymers. The anionic polyacrylamides in the oil field industry are designated by the generic name of partially hydrolyzed polyacrylamide (PHPA), although they are in actuality copolymers .
  • What is an anionic polyacrylamide?
  • The anionic polyacrylamides in the oil field industry are designated by the generic name of partially hydrolyzed polyacrylamide (PHPA), although they are in actuality copolymers . Both high- and low-molecular-weight polymers are used as drilling fluid additives.
  • 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 ).
