Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of surfactants, and in particular to a perfluoropolyether anionic nonionic surfactant and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art
[0002] Fluorocarbon surfactants are surfactants in which part or all of the hydrogen atoms on the hydrocarbon chain of a common surfactant molecule are replaced by fluorine atoms. Fluorocarbon surfactants have the advantages of high surface activity, excellent heat resistance and chemical stability; they are widely used in industries such as chemistry, machinery, electronics, petroleum, as well as household products and other fields.
[0003] Fluorocarbon surfactants have been studied in depth and widely used, such as perfluorooctane carboxylic acid (PFOA), perfluorooctane sulfonic acid (PFOS) and surfactants with various linear or branched perfluoroalkyl groups as fluorocarbon chains. However, these perfluorocarboxylates / sulfonates are currently the most difficult organic pollutants to degrade; and linear alkyl fluorocarbon surfactants have poor chain flexibility, resulting in poor solubility.
[0004] Fluorocarbon surfactants are divided into anionic, cationic, amphoteric and nonionic types according to the dissociation properties of polar groups. Anionic surfactants have the characteristics of low cost, high interfacial activity, low adsorption on sandstone surface, good temperature resistance, etc., and have important applications in chemical oil recovery. However, their salt resistance is poor and the critical micelle concentration (CMC) is high. The hydrophilic groups of non-ionic surfactants usually contain ether groups and hydroxyl groups, which have better compatibility with water and organic solvents, will not ionize in aqueous solutions, have good salt resistance, acid and alkali resistance, electrolyte resistance and good compatibility, so they are insensitive to the acidity and alkalinity of the solution and electrolytes, and due to the chemical stability of the fluorocarbon chain, they can be used in strong acid and alkaline environments. Although non-ionic compounds have strong salt resistance, they have low turbidity points and cannot be used in formations with high turbidity points, and have poor temperature resistance.
[0005] By introducing anionic groups on the basis of nonionic compounds, the salt resistance and cloud point of surfactants can be improved. However, at present, most anionic-nonionic fluorocarbon surfactants are still seriously polluting the environment, are still non-degradable, and have poor ability to reduce surface tension and interfacial tension. They cannot achieve high efficiency in small quantities when used in the field of oil extraction; they are more sensitive to inorganic salts, and their various performances will be significantly reduced in high-salt oil reservoirs. Summary of the invention
[0006] The object of the present invention is to provide a perfluoropolyether anionic-nonionic surfactant, which can effectively reduce the oil-water interfacial tension and has good temperature and salt resistance.

Under nitrogen protection, 114.02 g (1 mol) of trifluoroacetic acid and 400 ml of dichloromethane were added to a 2 L strictly dried three-necked flask, and 72.11 g (1 mol) of 3-butene-1-ol was slowly added dropwise at room temperature. After the addition was completed, the mixture was stirred for 5 min, the temperature was raised to 55 ° C, refluxed with stirring, and reacted for 8 h to obtain a light brown liquid. The liquid was washed three times with 500 mL of distilled water, and after rotary evaporation at 85 ° C for 30 min, 107.91 g of intermediate 2 was obtained with a yield of 59.44%.
[0116] S2, dissolve 107.91g of intermediate 2 in 2000mL of deionized water, adjust to pH=7 with 10% mass concentration of sodium hydroxide solution, add to a 5L four-necked flask and stir continuously, heat to 75°C, and slowly drip 400mL (0.08mol / L) of ammonium persulfate-water solution and 300mL (1.2mol / L) of dodecyl acrylate-isopropanol solution at the same time. After the dripping is completed, react at 75°C for 10h to obtain 3055.21g of colorless viscous liquid. Repeat washing with acetone 3 times, place the washed sample in an oven, and dry at 120°C to obtain 788.23g of light yellow powder, with a yield of 54.11%.

[0122] The product properties of Example 1 to Example 4 and Comparative Example 1 to Comparative Example 5 are shown in Table 1:
[0123] Table 1
[0124] Solubility in water Surface tension in 0.5% aqueous solution (mN / m) Critical micelle concentration (wt%) Example 1 ≥27% 19.4 0.056 Example 2 ≥15% 18.2 0.060 Example 3 ≥5% 17.7 0.071 Example 4 ≥1% 16.8 0.092 Comparative Example 1 <2% 23.4 0.054 Comparative Example 2 ≤0.5% 18.3 0.066 Comparative Example 3 ≥35% 28.7 0.081 Comparative Example 4 ≤5% 30.4 0.023 Comparative Example 5 ≤10% 28.9 0.048
[0125] Test method for solubility in water: Weigh the substance to be tested with an analytical balance, and add 1.00g, 2.00g, 5.00g, 10.00g, 15.00g, 20.00g, and 25.00g of the substance to be tested into a 100mL volumetric flask in turn. Add distilled water to the volumetric flask to make up the volume, and gently shake the volumetric flask to fully dissolve the substance to be tested. Take a constant temperature water bath, place the solution in a constant temperature water bath and maintain it at 25°C. Keep it warm for a period of time until the solution stabilizes, then take out the solution from the water bath and observe the state of the solution. The solution in the bottle is clear and uniform, and there is no solute residue at the bottom of the bottle, which is completely dissolved. The mass of solute added when it is completely dissolved is the solubility, and the solubility / 100g is the solubility of the solute in water.
[0126] Test method for surface tension and critical micelle concentration of aqueous solution: William plate method
[0127] The Williams plate method is a modified DuPont ring method. It uses a rectangular plate made of platinum as a probe, which is placed horizontally on the surface of the liquid and then slowly lifted until the probe is detached from the liquid surface. In this process, the liquid forms two films on both sides of the probe, exerting a downward force on the probe. This force is proportional to the surface tension of the liquid, and the surface tension can be calculated by measuring this force. The Williams plate method is suitable for measuring the surface tension of pure liquids or dilute solutions, and can also measure the interfacial tension between two immiscible liquids. Instrument used: Biolin ThetaLite optical contact angle meter.
[0128] From the data in Table 1, we can see that:
[0129] Compared with Comparative Examples 1 to 5, the introduction of lauryl ester and sodium benzenesulfonate fragments in Examples 1 to 4 increases solubility and dispersibility and reduces surface tension. If only sodium benzenesulfonate fragments are introduced, such as in Comparative Example 3, although the solubility in water is good, the surface tension in the aqueous solution is significantly increased; if only lauryl ester is introduced, such as in Comparative Example 4, the solubility in water is sharply reduced, and the surface tension in the aqueous solution is sharply increased; if R is not introduced f The solubility of the group, such as in Comparative Example 5, in water is sharply reduced, and the surface tension in the aqueous solution is sharply increased.
[0130] As a comparison of surfactant additives for tertiary oil recovery chemical flooding: the concentration of tertiary oil recovery chemical flooding surfactant added to the example and comparative example products is 0.1% to 1%. The results are shown in Table 2:
[0131] Table 2
[0132]
[0133] Oil-water interfacial tension, surface tension and critical micelle concentration test methods:
[0134] An aqueous solution of anionic nonionic surfactant with different mass fractions (0.1%, 0.2%, 0.3%, 0.4%, 0.5%, 0.6%) was prepared, and the same volume of crude oil was added, and the instrument was tested at 25° C. Instrument used: Biolin Theta Lite optical contact angle measuring instrument.
[0135] From the data in Table 2, we can see that:
[0136] The perfluoropolyether anionic nonionic surfactants prepared in Examples 1 to 4 of the present invention have good ability to reduce oil-water interfacial tension; compared with Comparative Examples 1 and 2, the introduction of lauryl ester and sodium benzenesulfonate fragments increases solubility and dispersibility and reduces oil-water tension; compared with Comparative Examples 3 and 4, the introduction of lauryl ester reduces oil-water tension; compared with Comparative Example 5, after replacing the fluorine-containing group, the ability to reduce interfacial tension decreases sharply.
[0137] Thermal stability test of surfactants:
[0138] The surfactant was placed under reservoir conditions, and the interfacial tension was measured regularly. The thermal stability of the surfactant was investigated based on the change in interfacial tension. A 0.5% mass concentration aqueous surfactant solution was placed in a small autoclave, and taken out regularly to measure the interfacial tension between the surfactant and the corresponding oil well crude oil. The results are shown in Table 3:
[0139] Table 3
[0140]
[0141] From the data in Table 3, we can see that:
[0142] Affected by temperature, during the 60-day investigation period, the interfacial tension of the surfactant solution increased with time, the number of free ions decreased, the interfacial activity weakened, and the interfacial tension increased, but it was still below 40mN / m, indicating good stability and strong oil displacement ability.
[0143] The test results of the water contact angle between the solution and the natural core are shown in Table 4:
[0144] Table 4
[0145]
[0146]
[0147] From the data in Table 4, we can see that:
[0148] The perfluoropolyether anionic-nonionic surfactant prepared in Examples 1 to 4 is used as a surfactant additive for tertiary oil recovery. Compared with Comparative Example 2, the water contact angle between the product and the core is reduced to below 40° after wetting for 10 seconds, indicating that it has excellent wetting reversal. The product can significantly reduce the water contact angle on the rock surface, reduce the adhesion of oil droplets on the rock surface, and facilitate stripping and emulsification.
[0149] The salt tolerance test results are shown in Table 5 and Table 6:

[0155] Note: In Table 5 and Table 6, “×” indicates that no new phase appears, and “√” indicates that a new phase appears
[0156] Salt resistance test: prepare a NaCl solution with a mineralization degree of 2-10 g / L and a CaCl2 solution with a mineralization degree of 10-100 g / L respectively, then use the two mineralized waters to prepare the example and comparative example solutions with a mass concentration of 0.3% respectively, and observe whether there are new phases such as precipitation and floccules after standing for 2 hours to test the solubility and salt resistance of the surfactant.
[0157] From the data in Table 5 and Table 6, we can see that:
[0158] The perfluoropolyether anionic nonionic surfactants prepared in Examples 1 to 4 can be rapidly dissolved in a NaCl solution with a mineralization of 100 g / L and a CaCl2 solution with a mineralization of 8 g / L, and no new phases such as precipitation and floccules are produced. There is no change after standing for 2 hours. The product has good salt resistance and has certain applicability in medium-high salt and high-high salt reservoirs.
