Abstract: | Scaling usually causes serious problems in daily life and industrial production. Currently, developing passive anti-scaling coatings has shown promises to overcome this problem. In this work, we fabricated a scalable and robust bio-inspired organogel(BIO) coating, showing dynamic scale resistance in the oil/brine mixture. The oil layer of the BIO coating was utilized as a barrier to inhibit scale nucleation and reduce scale adhesion. The mechanical strength of the coating was optimized by regulating nanoparticle contents. Moreover, the universality of scale resistance was demonstrated by varying the types of nanoparticles, oils and scales. Compared with commercial pipeline materials, such as copper, this BIO coating significantly reduces scale deposition after 240-h scaling test(ca. 93% reduction). Therefore, this study designs scalable and robust organogel coatings for sustainable scale resistance, which may be used for practical application in oil production. |
