Phase behavior and structure analysis of the middle mixed layer for ASP flooding system at low surfactant concentration

The phase behavior and interfacial tension of alkali/surfactant/polymer (ASP) flooding system and simulative crude oil were investigated, and the size distribution and structure analysis of the middle mixed layer (MML) were also studied by size analyzer and freeze-fracture TEM. It was found that there were some rules between the volume of MML and the concentration of each component, and the interfacial tension between MML and the oil phase or water phase could reach an ultra-low value. Especially, the freeze-fracture TEM micrographs of MML were firstly obtained, and the new viewpoint was put forward that there coexist the structures of micelle, microemulsions and emulsions in MML and the structure of microemulsion is dominant. This would make an important effect on the research of surfactant theory and ASP flooding mechanism.     

烷基聚葡糖苷C9.6G1.3/n-C4H9OH/n-C6H14/H2O微乳液体系的介电弛豫谱研究

The pseudotertiary phase diagram of the microemulsion system alkyl polyglucoside/n-butanol/n-hexane/water was plotted at （30.0±0.1） ℃. The dielectric measurements, including permittivity, conductivity, relaxation strength, characteristic relaxation time, etc,, were applied to investigate the microstructure of the system. Unique dielectric relaxations were observed over the frequency range of 5-10^7 Hz, taking place possibly through an interracial polarization mechanism. According to the results obtained from dielectric spectroscopy, the structures of the microemulsion O/W, BC and W/O were determined, and some dielectric and phase parameters were calculated.
