Hydrophobic associated polymer and preparation method thereof

Abstract

The invention provides a hydrophobic associated polymer, comprising four repetitive units as follows, wherein A is a monomeric unit of a hydrophobic monomer; the hydrophobic monomer is selected from one or more of N-alkyl substituted acrylamide and derivatives thereof, alkyl acrylate, alkyl (meth) acrylate, fluoro-substitution alkyl acrylate, allyl alkyl quaternary ammonium salt, acrylamide alkyl sulfoacid and acrylamide alkyl sulfonate; D is a monomer unit of a functional monomer; the functional monomer is selected from one or more of terminal alkenyl-containing sulfonic acid derivatives and sulfonate derivatives thereof, and terminal alkenyl-containing heterocyclic derivatives. Compared with the prior art, the monomer unit of acrylamide in the hydrophobic associated polymer can provide hydrophilic groups; the monomeric unit of the hydrophobic monomer can provide hydrophobic lateral groups to build a solution network structure; a monomer unit of acrylate ions can improve the solubleness of the polymer; the introduction of the monomer unit of the functional monomer can improve the temperature resistance and salt resistance of the polymer. The repetitive units are shown in the description.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of polymers, in particular to a hydrophobic association polymer and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] In oilfield development and application technology, it is usually necessary to modify the formation environment, etc., and it is necessary to use certain performance fluids for mass transfer and transportation. By injecting these fluids into the formation, certain substances will be brought into the formation to act to transform the formation environment. To achieve the purpose of oil and gas field development and increase production. At the same time, related application technologies also require these fluids to have certain specific properties, such as thickening, viscoelasticity, drag reduction, permeability, and improved mobility ratio. Among them, the most commonly used fluid is aqueous solution, which has the advantages of wide source, economy, and convenient construction. By...

Problems solved by technology

The output and quality of natural polymers are limited by seasons and regions, and the performance stability cannot be guaranteed. Compared with synthetic polymers, they are used in large amounts and are easy to biodegrade. Higher residues will also seriously damage the environment in the formation, giving Later development brought many new problems

At present, the most widely used synthetic polymer is polyacrylamide. Although its performance in all aspects can meet the construction requirements, it is easy to cause mechanical degradation during the pumping process, and the viscosity of the solution drops rapidly. In high-temperature oil reservoir environment, polyacrylamide is not resistant to salt, and is easily degraded at high temperature, resulting in a significant decline in various properties, and it is difficult to further overcome it on the basis of its existing molecular structure. Therefore, from It is imminent to modify the polymer molecular structure to improve its shear resistance, temperature resistance and salt resistance
