Foam Stability Related to Polymer Permeability. I. Low Molecular Weight Additives
In the production of polyethylene foams by extrusion with alkanes as a blowing agent, significant changes in the dimensions of extruded products are encountered. The dimensional stability of a foam with a structure of closed cells is improved by blending the polymer with small amounts of a low molecular weight additive. It is believed that the dimensional stability is related to the ratio of th...
متن کاملExperimental Study of Foam Flooding in Low Permeability Sandstones: Effects of Rock Permeability and Microscopic Heterogeneity
Foam flooding (or injection of foam) is a common technology to enhance oil recovery. Although the effects of permeability on foam flooding were well studied in many laboratory experiments, little research has been focused on the specificity of low permeability. In this paper, a series of constant-quality nitrogen foam flow experiments were conducted to investigate the effects of permeability on...

متن کاملDevelopment of low-molecular-weight gelators and polymer-based gelators
In this review, the development of low-molecular-weight gelators and polymer-based gelators is described. The driving forces for physical gelation are non-covalent bonds, such as hydrogen bonds, electrostatic interactions, van der Waals interactions and p–p interactions. When gelation occurs, the gelator molecules self-assemble into macromolecule-like aggregates through non-covalent intermolecu...
متن کاملPolymer Characterization: Polymer Molecular Weight Determination
Polymers are large molecules consisting of a large number of small component molecules chemically linked together. They are made from constituent monomers through polymerization process. Polymers are unique materials in that they consist of a statistical distribution of chains of varying lengths, and each chain consists of monomer residues which affect its properties hence they require several ...
