The invention discloses an
ion bridging salt-tolerant
polymer thickening agent as well as a preparation method and application thereof, belongs to the technical field of preparation of
polymer thickening agents, and aims to solve the technical problems that
fracturing fluid which is just prepared before a cross-linking agent is injected is too high in
viscosity and difficult to inject. The preparation method comprises the following steps: mixing
maleic anhydride and initiators azodiisobutyronitrile and
dimethylformamide, then adding
acrylamide for reaction, and after the reaction is completed, carrying out reduced pressure
distillation to remove a
solvent, thereby obtaining the
ion-bridged salt-tolerant
polymer thickening agent. Before the
ion bridging salt-tolerant polymer
thickening agent is injected into a stratum with sand,
maleic anhydride is partially hydrolyzed, intramolecular winding is caused by the
disadvantage of the distance between molecules, the
viscosity is reduced, and injection is convenient; meanwhile, the stratum water contains
divalent ions such as Ca < 2 + > and Mg < 2 + >,
metal ions are captured through ortho-position carboxyl, complexing, bridging and crosslinking are carried out, the rigidity of a molecular main chain is increased, and the
side effect of the
metal ions is reduced. The
temperature resistance and the
salt resistance of the thickening agent can be obviously improved.
