The invention relates to a granular 
volume expansion profile control agent for oil 
recovery and a preparation, and the preparation comprises the following steps: uniformly mixing and stirring 25-40g of 30% 
bentonite water solution and 20-35g of 30% 
acrylamide water solution, further adding 0.2-0.5g of 
sodium sulfate, 0.7-1.2g of 
sodium sulfite and 3.0-6.0ml of 40% NaOH water solution, fully mixing, uniformly stirring, reacting for 15-30 minutes at 
room temperature, further rising temperature to 50 DEG C, standing for 3 hours at the constant temperature, and further performing 
drying, 
granulation, pulverization and screening, thereby preparing the granular 
volume expansion profile control agent for oil 
recovery. 
Polyacrylamide with low degree of 
hydrolysis is used as a 
raw material main agent, thereby having the characteristics of high 
gel strength, good 
toughness and effective expansion; and 
phenols and 
organic acid are selected as gel combination agents, thereby having the characteristics of stable gel combination, no gel breaking, no 
hydrolysis, 
salt resistance and 
biodegradation resistance. The granular 
volume expansion profile control agent for oil 
recovery adopts a formula 
system which combines the granular volume expansion profile control agent and a gel type profile control agent into a whole, thereby having the characteristics of having high volume expansion coefficient and long effective period, and being applicable to crack oil-bearing structures and pore oil-bearing structures.
