Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of water-soluble polymer preparation, and more specifically to a low-density polyacrylamide dry powder particle, a polyacrylamide suspension containing the same, and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] With the large-scale exploitation of shale oil and shale gas, large-volume fracturing technology using slick water as fracturing fluid has been widely used because it can more effectively improve the permeability and conductivity of shale oil and gas layers. Drag reducers, as the core additives of the slick water fracturing fluid system, directly determine the performance and application effect of the slick water fracturing fluid system. At present, most high-performance drag reducers use acrylamide polymers. In slick water fracturing, in order to ensure the construction requirements of online preparation, there are extremely high requirements for the dissolution rate of drag reducers, and the general dissolution rate is less than 30 seconds. Therefore, emulsion polyacrylamide is the best choice, but emulsion polyacrylamide has some obvious disadvantages, such as low effective content, low molecular weight, low viscosity in high-mineralization water, etc., which cannot meet the use requirements in some occasions with extremely high construction requirements.

[0003] Dry powder polyacrylamide has ultra-high molecular weight and high viscosity that the emulsion type cannot achieve, which can effectively make up for the shortcomings of emulsion products. In order to ensure the convenience of online construction, it is necessary to disperse the dry powder particles of polyacrylamide into the oil phase to prepare a suspension. Chinese invention patent CN202210873789.6 describes an integrated thickener for fracturing and a preparation method thereof, wherein the thickener comprises the following components in weight percentage: 40-55% modified acrylamide polymer, 1-2% suspending agent, and 50-58% organic solvent. Chinese invention patent CN202110905455.8 describes a thickener suspension for fracturing fluid and a preparation method thereof, the method comprising: adding polyacrylamide powder, anti-adhesive agent and surfactant to a ball mill in sequence, and obtaining a mixed powder after ball milling; adding a first suspending agent, a second suspending agent, an anti-precipitation agent, and a structure regulator in the reactor in sequence and stirring and mixing to obtain a mixed solution; adding the mixed powder and the emulsifier in the mixed solution in sequence and stirring and mixing to obtain the thickener suspension. However, traditional polyacrylamide dry powder particles are obtained by aqueous solution polymerization. The specific steps are to dissolve acrylamide and comonomers in water, add initiators to polymerize and become colloids, granulate them into drying equipment for drying, and finally crush and screen. During the drying process, the colloid particles will quickly lose water and shrink, and finally become dense powder particles with a density of about 1.4g / mL, which is much larger than the density of the oil phase used to prepare the suspension (0.75-0.9g / mL). Due to the density difference between polyacrylamide dry powder particles and oil phase, in order to reduce the sedimentation and stratification speed of polyacrylamide, a large amount of suspending agent needs to be added to the oil phase to increase the viscosity of the system. On the one hand, the increase in viscosity has a negative impact on the later construction preparation, and on the other hand, the use of suspending agent also increases the residue content of the fracturing fluid. Summary of the invention

[0004] To solve the above problems, the first object of the present invention is to provide a method for preparing low-density polyacrylamide dry powder particles. The preparation method can successfully prepare polyacrylamide dry powder particles with a lower density, with a density between 1.1-1.3 g / mL. When the polyacrylamide dry powder particles are used to prepare a suspension, the amount of suspending agent can be greatly reduced, the viscosity of the suspension itself can be reduced, and the stability of the suspension can be maintained, thereby improving the comprehensive performance of the suspension.

[0005] The second object of the present invention is to provide a low-density polyacrylamide dry powder particle prepared according to the preparation method as described above.

[0006] The third object of the present invention is to provide a polyacrylamide suspension comprising the low-density polyacrylamide dry powder particles as described above.

[0007] The fourth object of the present invention is to provide an application of the polyacrylamide suspension as described above in shale oil and shale gas production.

[0008] It should be noted that the total weight of monomers described in the present invention refers to the total weight of acrylamide and comonomers, and the total weight of raw materials described in the present invention refers to the total weight of all raw materials including acrylamide, comonomers, water, emulsifiers, porogens, organic solvents, initiators, and pH adjusters.

[0009] In order to achieve the above first object, the present invention adopts the following technical scheme:

[0010] The present invention discloses a method for preparing low-density polyacrylamide dry powder particles, comprising the following steps:

[0011] adding acrylamide and comonomer into water to obtain a monomer solution;

[0012] An emulsifier and an organic solvent containing a porogen are sequentially added to the monomer solution, and under the action of the emulsifier, the organic solvent containing the porogen is uniformly dispersed into oil droplets, and the particle size of the oil droplets is controlled to be 500 nm to 5 μm;

[0013] In an inert atmosphere, an initiator is added to carry out a polymerization reaction to obtain a colloid, and after granulation, drying and crushing, particles with a particle size of ≤0.25 mm are collected to obtain low-density polyacrylamide dry powder particles;

[0014] Wherein, the porogen is an azo compound.

[0015] In the art, azo compounds usually participate in the reaction as initiators. The present invention creatively changes the participation mode of azo compounds. The azo compounds are pre-dissolved in an organic solvent (oil phase). After the organic solvent is mixed with a monomer solution (water phase), the oil and water are separated to block the mixing of the azo compounds and the monomers, so that the azo compounds cannot function as initiators. At the same time, under the action of an emulsifier, the oil phase is uniformly dispersed in the water phase, and the oil phase is dispersed into oil droplets with a particle size of 500nm to 5μm by regulating the type and amount of the emulsifier. When the initiator is added to initiate the polymerization reaction, the system temperature is continuously increased, so that the oil droplets distributed in the water phase are heated, and the azo compounds are thermally decomposed (about 40°C) to generate nitrogen. The nitrogen remains in the colloid and occupies a certain space. In the later drying process, it can play a good pore-making role. Since there are many pores of 500nm to 5μm in the polyacrylamide dry powder particles prepared in this way, whether these pores are filled with air or residual organic solvent, the density of the polyacrylamide dry powder particles will be greatly reduced.

[0016] Further, the azo compound is selected from one or more of azobisisobutyronitrile, azobisisoheptylnitrile and azodicarbonamide; the azo compound is 0.01-2wt% of the mass of the organic solvent; illustratively, the azo compound can be 0.01wt%, 0.05wt%, 0.1wt%, 0.2wt%, 0.3wt%, 0.4wt%, 0.5wt%, 0.6wt%, 0.8wt%, 0.9wt%, 1wt%, 1.5wt%, 2wt% and the like of the mass of the organic solvent. Of course, those skilled in the art can also use other materials that can generate gas when heated to replace the azo compound, and similar effects can be achieved.

[0017] Further, when the synthesized polymer is an anionic copolymer, the comonomer is selected from one or more of nonionic monomers and anionic monomers;

[0018] The nonionic monomer is selected from other nonionic monomers except acrylamide, and the other nonionic monomers are selected from one or more of N-vinylpyrrolidone, 2-methylacrylamide, N,N-dimethylacrylamide and N-tert-butylacrylamide; the other nonionic monomers account for 0-5wt% of the total monomer amount; illustratively, the other nonionic monomers can account for 0wt%, 1wt%, 2wt%, 3wt%, 4wt%, 5wt% and the like of the total monomer amount.

[0019] The anionic monomer is selected from one or more of acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, itaconic acid, maleic acid, 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropanesulfonic acid, methylallylsulfonic acid and vinylbenzenesulfonic acid; the anionic monomer accounts for 0-50wt% of the total monomer amount; illustratively, the anionic monomer can account for 0wt%, 5wt%, 10wt%, 15wt%, 20wt%, 25wt%, 30wt%, 35wt%, 40wt%, 45wt%, 50wt% and the like of the total monomer amount.

[0020] The cationic monomer is selected from one or more of acryloyloxyethyl trimethyl ammonium chloride, methacryloyloxyethyl trimethyl ammonium chloride, methyl allyl trimethyl ammonium chloride and dimethyl diallyl ammonium chloride; the cationic monomer accounts for 0-60wt% of the total monomer amount; illustratively, the cationic monomer can account for 0wt%, 5wt%, 10wt%, 15wt%, 20wt%, 25wt%, 30wt%, 35wt%, 40wt%, 45wt%, 50wt%, 55wt%, 60wt% and the like of the total monomer amount, taking into account the problem of effective amount of some cationic monomers, for example, 80wt% acryloyloxyethyl trimethyl ammonium chloride, the effective amount of which is 80wt% of acryloyloxyethyl trimethyl ammonium chloride in the total weight, therefore, the proportion of the cationic monomer here is the proportion of the effective amount of the cationic monomer in the total monomer amount.

[0021] The acrylamide and comonomers account for 15-40wt% of the total weight of the raw materials; illustratively, the acrylamide and comonomers can account for 15wt%, 20wt%, 25wt%, 30wt%, 35wt%, 40wt% and the like of the total weight of the raw materials. If the calculation of the proportion also involves the effective amount of the cationic monomer, it is also calculated according to the same rules.

[0022] The present invention controls the particle size of the oil droplets containing the porogen by controlling the type and amount of the emulsifier, thereby affecting the pore size generated inside the obtained polyacrylamide dry powder particles and the dry powder density. If the oil droplet particle size is too large, the micropores will disappear after being crushed into particles below 0.25 mm. If micropores with smaller particle sizes are desired, a larger amount of emulsifier needs to be added, thereby affecting the comprehensive performance of the product.

[0023] Furthermore, the emulsifier is selected from one or more of nonionic emulsifiers, anionic emulsifiers and cationic emulsifiers;

[0024] The nonionic emulsifier is selected from one or more of fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether, alkylphenol polyoxyethylene ether, fatty acid polyoxyethylene ester, polyoxyethylene alkylamine and polyoxyethylene alkylamide;

[0025] The anionic emulsifier is selected from one or more of sodium alkyl sulfonate, sodium alkyl aryl sulfonate, sodium alkyl sulfate and secondary alkyl sodium sulfate;

[0026] The cationic emulsifier is selected from one or more of an amine salt emulsifier (such as dodecyl ammonium chloride) and / or a quaternary ammonium salt emulsifier (such as hexadecyl trimethyl ammonium bromide);

[0027] The emulsifier accounts for 0.4-5wt% of the total weight of the raw materials; illustratively, the emulsifier can account for 0.4wt%, 0.5wt%, 1wt%, 1.5wt%, 2wt%, 2.5wt%, 3wt%, 3.5wt%, 4wt%, 4.5wt%, 5wt% and the like of the total weight of the raw materials.

[0028] Further, the initiator is selected from one or more of persulfate, hydrogen peroxide, tert-butyl hydroperoxide, bisulfite, sulfite, ferrous salt, thiosulfate, pyrosulfite, and tertiary amine compounds;

[0029] The initiator accounts for 0.001-0.1wt% of the total weight of the raw materials; illustratively, the initiator may account for 0.001wt%, 0.005wt%, 0.01wt%, 0.02wt%, 0.03wt%, 0.04wt%, 0.05wt%, 0.06wt%, 0.07wt%, 0.08wt%, 0.09wt%, 0.1wt% and the like of the total weight of the raw materials.

[0030] Further, the organic solvent is selected from one or more of normal alkane solvents, isoalkane solvents, aromatic solvents, cycloalkane solvents, halogenated alkane solvents, ether solvents and lipid solvents;

[0031] The organic solvent accounts for 0.5-10wt% of the total weight of the raw material; illustratively, the organic solvent can account for 0.5wt%, 1wt%, 1.5wt%, 2wt%, 2.5wt%, 3wt%, 3.5wt%, 4wt%, 4.5wt%, 5wt%, 5.5wt%, 6wt%, 6.5wt%, 7wt%, 7.5wt%, 8wt%, 8.5wt%, 9wt%, 9.5wt%, 10wt% and the like of the total weight of the raw material.

[0032] Furthermore, before the polymerization reaction, the pH value of the reaction system is controlled between 4-8, and the temperature of the reaction system is controlled to 0-15°C. The technician can selectively add various pH adjusters, such as sodium hydroxide, according to the pH value required by the reaction system before the polymerization reaction. Usually, the pH adjuster is added together with the emulsifier, organic solvent and other materials, and the pH value is fine-tuned before the reaction.

[0033] In order to achieve the above second purpose, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0034] The present invention discloses a low-density polyacrylamide dry powder particle prepared by the preparation method as described above; the density of the polyacrylamide dry powder particle is 1.1-1.3 g / mL, the particle size is ≤0.25 mm, and the molecular weight is (600-2500)×10 4 Dalt.

[0035] In order to achieve the third object, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0036] The present invention discloses a polyacrylamide suspension as described above, wherein the polyacrylamide suspension comprises the following raw material components in the following mass percentages:

[0037] Polyacrylamide dry powder particles 20-55wt%;

[0038] Suspending agent 0.2-5wt%;

[0040] Furthermore, the polyacrylamide suspension includes 0.2-2 wt % of a suspending agent.

[0044] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

By adjusting the addition state of azo compounds so that they are heated inside a polymerization system to generate a large amount of nitrogen, pores of 500nm to 5μm are formed inside the obtained polyacrylamide dry powder particles, thereby achieving the purpose of reducing the density of the polyacrylamide dry powder particles. The density of the polyacrylamide dry powder particles is between 1.1-1.3g / mL after testing.

[0046] The low-density polyacrylamide dry powder particles prepared are used in the preparation of polyacrylamide suspensions, which can significantly reduce the amount of suspending agent introduced, reduce the viscosity of the suspension itself, improve the workability, and at the same time maintain the stability of the suspension and improve the comprehensive performance of the suspension.
