Abstract:Demulsification of crude oil emulsion is an obvious problem in the whole of petroleum engineering, which needs to be dealt with urgently. In this paper, a supramolecular material Cucurbit[7]uril-SiO 2 (CB-SiO 2 ) synthesized with excellent demulsification efficiency (DE) on O/W emulsion was synthesized by a simple thermal synthesis method. The microscopic morphology and structure were investigated through modern characterization techniques. Furthermore, its stability, dynamic interfacial tension (IFT), and wet… Show more
