Abstract:The dispersion of silica dioxide (SiO2)/sodium lauryl sulfate (SDS) have been widely used in the oilfield development and the remaining oil displacement, but its instability is still a problem in the practical engineering application. In this paper, the mechanism of foam stability was investigated by combining the measurement of interfacial energy of nanoparticles at the gas-liquid interface with the dynamics simulation of molecular diffusion. The results showed that the addition of SiO2 nanoparticles improved… Show more
