“…When the concentration of micelles is above the threshold point, those micelles can overlap and entangle to form three‐dimensional network structures, exhibiting remarkable viscoelastic properties. The fascinating properties of the worm‐like micelles render them extremely useful in many applications, for example, as templates for nanomaterial synthesis (Qiao et al, ), carriers for drug release and delivery (Afifi et al, ), clean fracturing fluid for oil production (Lu et al, ; Samuel et al, ), and mobility‐control agents for chemical‐EOR (Azad & Sultan, ; Dai et al, ; Kumar, Awang, Abbas, & Kalwar, ; Lakatos et al, ; Li, Jing, He, Ren, & Wei, ; Li et al, ; Morvan et al, ; Santvoort & Golombok, ; Sultan, Azad, Hussein, & Mahmoud, ; Zhu, Fan, Liu, & Li, ). Morvan et al () found that the surfactant‐based viscoelastic fluid shows superior thickening ability at a low surfactant concentration ( e.g ., 0.5 wt.%), high‐salinity brine, and high temperature.…”
