A novel choline chloride/graphene composite as a shale inhibitor for drilling fluid and the interaction mechanism

Abstract

The chemical structure of the choline chloride/graphene oxide composite.

Recent advances in the applications of graphene materials for the oil and gas industry

“…20 Choline chloride-modied graphene (Ch-G) had better inhibition properties than conventional shale inhibitors and can resist temperatures up to 180 °C. 21 Janus amphiphilic graphene oxide (JAGO) has been used as shale inhibitors due to the 2D nano-sheet amphiphilic structure. Lv et al investigated JAGO modied by dodecylamine on one side of GO as a shale inhibitor.…”
