Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of polymer materials technology, and more specifically, to a PGA-type resin edge-grafted modified graphene and its preparation method, a PGA composition and its preparation method and application, a biodegradable polyester material and its application, and a PGA temporary plugging ball. Background Technology
[0002] As existing proven oil and gas fields are continuously exploited, the abundance of oil and gas in reservoirs gradually declines. Therefore, reservoir fracturing is often used to adjust the permeability of underground reservoirs, thereby achieving sustainable exploitation of oil and gas resources in increasingly depleted underground reservoirs. As the most widely used layered fracturing technology, the ball-drop layered fracturing method utilizes the high fluid absorption capacity of already fractured oil and gas layers. After fracturing a target layer, a certain amount of temporary plugging balls are carried by fracturing fluid into the pores of the fractured layer to seal the pores, forcing the fracturing fluid into other unfractured layers, increasing the fracturing pressure, and thus fracturing another target reservoir requiring a higher fracturing pressure. This process is repeated until all target layers within the fracturing interval are fractured, achieving the goal of fracturing multiple production layers in a single operation. In the above operations, temporary plugging balls are the most commonly used downhole production tool. However, existing temporary plugging balls are generally made of non-degradable plastics, rubber, metal alloys, etc. In actual downhole production applications, the temporary plugging balls need to be unplugged after a section of production. Traditional plugging balls are often difficult to dissolve with common reagents. They either dissolve slowly and are difficult to dissolve, or even if they do dissolve, they easily become stuck in the wellbore, making them difficult to remove from the wellbore after the plugging and fracturing operation is completed. To address these issues, additional measures are needed to drill or retrieve the plugging balls, which significantly increases operating costs, reduces production efficiency, and typically uses more fluid during drilling, potentially causing secondary pollution to the underground reservoir. Furthermore, plugging balls made of metal alloys, due to their high rigidity and strength, require the addition of large amounts of electrolyte salts to the production fluid. After dissolution, the alloy often forms residues, further polluting the underground reservoir. When the wellbore shape is irregular, the high rigidity and low plasticity of the alloy material prevent it from deforming to adapt to the irregular shape, resulting in poor sealing and difficulty in establishing stable pressure resistance, significantly impacting the effectiveness of the plugging and fracturing operation. Chinese invention patent application 202011020847.8 discloses a three-layer composite temporary plugging ball with good temporary plugging effect, but the formula is complex and contains non-degradable polyvinyl alcohol, which is not easily returned with fracturing fluid after unplugging and will cause secondary pollution if left in the formation. Chinese invention patent application 202110861989.5 discloses a biodegradable temporary plugging ball. However, this temporary plugging ball contains 15-30 parts by weight of functional filler (functional zeolite powder) and 4-8 parts of EVA-grafted MAH, and these components cannot be completely degraded in the formation.
[0003] Graphene has attracted much attention due to its high light transmittance, high electrical conductivity, high thermal conductivity, high specific surface area, and excellent mechanical properties. To expand its application areas and fully utilize these properties, developing high-quality, low-cost preparation technologies for functionalized graphene is crucial and a prerequisite for large-scale commercial applications. Common graphene preparation methods include redox methods, mechanical exfoliation, chemical vapor deposition (CVD), arc discharge (ADM), and electrochemical methods. Among these, CVD, ADM, and electrochemical methods are costly and have complex processes. Mechanical exfoliation and redox methods both use natural or artificial graphite as raw materials, utilizing mechanical or chemical exfoliation techniques. Graphite raw materials are abundant, costs are controllable, and they are suitable for large-scale graphene production. However, redox methods use large amounts of strong acids and strong oxidants during production, inevitably leading to severe wastewater pollution. The resulting graphene may contain topological defects such as five-membered and seven-membered rings or structural defects such as hydroxyl groups, which will result in the loss of some properties and significantly limit the application range of graphene. Mechanical exfoliation methods include ball milling, sand milling, and ultrasonic methods, which yield graphene with low oxygen content and better performance. Although these methods can produce graphene on a large scale, the destructive effect of traditional mechanical exfoliation results in relatively severe structural damage to the graphene, leading to a size smaller than 100 nanometers and a greater tendency to aggregate. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide edge-grafted graphene of PGA resin and its preparation method, PGA composition and its preparation method and application, biodegradable polyester material and its application, and PGA temporary plugging ball. The edge-grafted graphene of PGA resin of this invention has good thermal conductivity and a large aspect ratio. When added to a PGA composition, the prepared PGA temporary plugging ball has good rigidity, self-lubrication and plasticity at high temperature, and can be rapidly degraded by adding water, thereby meeting the requirements of segmented oil and gas extraction.
[0005] A first aspect of the present invention provides a PGA-based resin edge-grafted modified graphene, the PGA-based resin edge-grafted modified graphene comprising: graphene and a polyglycolic acid resin grafted thereon at its edges, wherein the mass percentage of the polyglycolic acid resin grafted in the PGA-based resin edge-grafted modified graphene is 1-20%, preferably 3-15%, based on the total mass of the PGA-based resin edge-grafted modified graphene.
[0006] A second aspect of the present invention provides a method for preparing the above-mentioned PGA-type resin edge-grafted modified graphene, the method comprising:
[0007] In the presence of a non-flammable gas mixture, polyglycolic acid resin and graphite are ground and mixed to obtain PGA-type resin edge-grafted modified graphene.
[0008] A third aspect of the present invention provides a PGA composition containing edge-grafted graphene of a PGA-type resin, the PGA composition comprising: a polyglycolic acid resin, the aforementioned edge-grafted graphene of the PGA-type resin, a bio-based elastomer, an antioxidant, a nucleating agent, a chain extender, and a hydrolysis inhibitor.
[0009] A fourth aspect of the present invention provides a method for preparing the above-mentioned PGA composition, the method comprising: mixing the polyglycolic acid resin, the above-mentioned PGA resin edge-grafted modified graphene, a bio-based elastomer, an antioxidant, a nucleating agent, a chain extender and a hydrolysis inhibitor uniformly to obtain the PGA composition.
[0010] A fifth aspect of the present invention provides a biodegradable polyester material, which is prepared by a method comprising the following steps: melt-mixing the above-mentioned PGA composition to obtain the biodegradable polyester material.
[0011] The sixth aspect of the present invention provides the use of the above-described PGA composition and the above-described biodegradable polyester material in the preparation of PGA temporary plugging balls.
[0012] A seventh aspect of the present invention provides a PGA temporary plugging ball, which is obtained by a method comprising the following steps: injection molding and annealing the above-mentioned biodegradable polyester material to obtain the PGA temporary plugging ball.
[0013] The technical solution of the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0014] 1. The PGA-type resin edge-grafted modified graphene of the present invention has good thermal conductivity and a large aspect ratio.
[0015] 2. Compared to grinding processes such as ultrasonication, ball milling, and sand milling, grinding discs have a weaker destructive effect on the graphite crystal structure, making it easier to prepare PGA edge-grafted graphene with a larger aspect ratio. The high strength and high modulus characteristics of PGA can synergistically work with the grinding disc, thereby improving the graphite sheet exfoliation efficiency and effect. During the exfoliation process, PGA utilizes its terminal carboxyl and hydroxyl groups to graft onto the edges of graphene, achieving graphene-PGA composite under non-oxidative conditions.
[0016] 3. PGA temporary plugging balls containing PGA resin edge-grafted modified graphene and combined additives have good rigidity, self-lubrication and plasticity at high temperatures, which can meet the pressure resistance requirements of temporary plugging balls, effectively fit the oil and gas boreholes to improve the temporary plugging efficiency, and can be rapidly degraded by adding water, thereby meeting the requirements of segmented oil and gas extraction.
[0017] Other features and advantages of the present invention will be described in detail in the following detailed description section. Detailed Implementation
[0018] Preferred embodiments of the invention will now be described in more detail. While preferred embodiments of the invention are described below, it should be understood that the invention can be implemented in various forms and should not be limited to the embodiments set forth herein.
[0019] A first aspect of the present invention provides a PGA-based resin edge-grafted modified graphene, the PGA-based resin edge-grafted modified graphene comprising: graphene and a polyglycolic acid resin grafted thereon at its edges, wherein the mass percentage of the polyglycolic acid resin grafted in the PGA-based resin edge-grafted modified graphene is 1-20%, preferably 3-15%, for example 3%, 4%, 5%, 6%, 7%, 8%, 9%, 10%, 11%, 12%, 13%, 14%, or 15%, based on the total mass of the PGA-based resin edge-grafted modified graphene.
[0020] According to the present invention, preferably, the average sheet diameter of the PGA-type resin edge-grafted modified graphene is 2-6 μm;
[0021] And / or, the aspect ratio of the PGA-type resin edge-grafted modified graphene is (180-1850):1, preferably (200-1750):1, and more preferably (560-1650):1.
[0022] In this invention, the shearing and peeling action of the grinding disc is achieved by the action of PGA on graphite, which has a smaller destructive effect on graphene compared to methods such as ball milling and sand milling. Therefore, the edge-grafted modified graphene sheets of the PGA-type resin are relatively large.
[0023] The average sheet diameter of the PGA-type resin-grafted modified graphene can be obtained by randomly measuring the size of more than 10 graphene sheets using a scanning electron microscope (SEM) or atomic force microscope. The method for measuring the size of a single graphene sheet is as follows: draw three lines through the center of the graphene sheet, with an angle of approximately 60° between the lines. Measure the length of the graphene along these three lines and calculate the average value as the size of this graphene sheet.
[0024] According to the present invention, preferably, the thermal conductivity of the PGA-type resin edge-grafted modified graphene is 200-400 W / m·K, more preferably 220-320 W / m·K.
[0025] The grafted graphene obtained by edge grafting PGA resin to PGA resin of the present invention has excellent thermal conductivity and can be added as a filler to polyglycolic acid composition to make the composition have better thermal conductivity.
[0026] The structure and properties of the PGA-type resin edge-grafted modified graphene of the present invention are significantly different from those of existing grafted graphene oxide or grafted reduced graphene oxide.
[0027] Structurally, the national standard GB / T30544.13-2018 separately defines graphene oxide and reduced graphene oxide. Graphene oxide is chemically modified graphene obtained by oxidizing and exfoliating graphite; its surface has been strongly oxidized and has a high oxygen content. Reduced graphene oxide is graphene oxide with reduced oxygen content, but it still retains some oxygen-containing functional groups, and SP... 3 Chemical bonds cannot be completely reduced to sp. 2 Chemical bonds leave many topological defects. Therefore, the structures of graphene oxide and reduced graphene oxide differ significantly from those of graphene. This invention uses graphene, not graphene oxide or reduced graphene oxide. From a properties perspective, most reported PGA-modified graphene is based on the grafting reaction of oxygen-containing groups of graphene oxide with PGA, followed by reduction to prepare PGA-grafted graphene.
[0028] In this invention, the term "edge" refers to the outer edge of the graphene sheet / graphene lattice. "Edge grafting" refers to the connection of modified molecules with atoms at the edge of the graphene lattice through chemical bonds.
[0029] In this invention, the term "surface" refers to the exposed portion of the graphene sheet / graphene lattice except for its edges.
[0030] In this invention, the term "edge-grafted modified graphene" in the PGA-type resin edge-grafted graphene refers to at least 90% by weight, preferably at least 95% by weight, at least 96% by weight, 97% by weight, 98% by weight, more preferably at least 99% by weight, and most preferably at least 100% by weight of the grafted polymer being atomically grafted to the edge of the graphene lattice via chemical bonds.
[0031] A second aspect of the present invention provides a method for preparing the above-mentioned PGA-type resin edge-grafted modified graphene, the method comprising:
[0032] In the presence of a non-flammable gas mixture, polyglycolic acid resin and graphite are ground and mixed to obtain PGA-type resin edge-grafted modified graphene.
[0033] In this invention, the PGA-type resin edge-grafted modified graphene obtained after grinding and mixing is in powder form.
[0034] This invention relates to a PGA-based resin edge-grafted modified graphene prepared by using a PGA-based resin-assisted grinding disc to exfoliate graphite and generate heat while simultaneously performing in-situ grafting.
[0035] In this invention, the grinding and mixing are preferably carried out in a high-pressure grinding disc kettle with a supercritical fluid circulation function. This high-pressure grinding disc kettle with supercritical fluid circulation function is conventional equipment in the art, comprising a high-pressure grinding disc kettle and a circulation unit. A moving grinding disc and a stationary grinding disc are disposed within the high-pressure grinding disc kettle. The circulation unit includes a high-pressure resistant circulation pump, a high-pressure resistant gas storage tank, and a booster pump. This high-pressure grinding disc kettle with supercritical fluid circulation function enables the supercritical fluid to circulate within the high-pressure grinding disc kettle.
[0036] During the exfoliation process, the moving / stationary grinding disc transmits shear force to the graphite sheets between the discs via PGA-like microparticles. Under shear stress, the graphite sheets initially align along the rotation direction of the grinding discs, and are then gradually exfoliated into thinner sheets, ultimately forming graphene. During exfoliation, many new edges are generated. The carbon atoms at these new edges are highly reactive and react with shear-thermally activated PGA to form PGA-grafted graphene. The method of this invention significantly reduces damage to the graphite lattice. After the exfoliation process is complete, the PGA-like resin grafted onto the edges of the graphene remains stable.
[0037] The PGA resin in this invention system has two functions: (1) to improve the peeling effect of the grinding disc on the graphite sheet, and (2) to form a grafted composition with graphene.
[0038] This invention employs a grinding disc process, in which PGA-based resin and graphite are cyclically exfoliated between grinding discs. The shearing force between the stationary and moving grinding discs is transferred to the graphite sheets through the PGA-based resin powder, achieving the exfoliation and preparation of graphene. Compared with methods such as ball milling, sand milling, and ultrasonication, the grinding disc process effectively utilizes the exfoliation force between the grinding discs, reducing graphite sheet breakage. Especially after the PGA-based resin undergoes self-shearing, heat generation, and thickening, the shearing force between the grinding discs is more effectively transferred to the graphite sheet layers through supercritical fluid, improving exfoliation efficiency and reducing destructive effects. Therefore, the graphene sheets prepared by the grinding disc method are larger, flatter, and less prone to agglomeration. Thus, the PGA-based resin edge-grafted modified graphene of this invention has broad applications in composite polymers, oil and gas extraction, and other fields.

[0093] Hydrolysis inhibitor A: 1-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-3-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride;
[0094] Hydrolysis inhibitor B: 1-ethyl-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide hydrochloride.
[0095] Flake graphite with mesh sizes of 200, 300, 350, and 500 was purchased from Qingdao Santong Graphite Co., Ltd., and the fixed carbon content was 94%-99.9% by mass.
[0096] In the following examples and comparative examples, the melt flow index of the raw materials used was determined according to the methods specified in the national standard GB / T3682.2 "Determination of melt mass flow rate (MFR) and melt volumetric flow rate (MVR) of plastics and thermoplastics - Part 2: Test methods for materials sensitive to time-temperature history and / or humidity". The specific conditions for testing the melt mass flow rate (MFR) of PGA resins were: 230°C, 2.16 kg. The weight-average molecular weight and molecular weight distribution width were determined as follows: The PGA resin sample was dissolved in hexafluoroisopropanol solution to prepare a 0.3% (w / w) solution, and heated at 90°C for 5 hours until dissolved. After filtration through a polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) filter membrane, 10 μL was injected into an Agilent 1260GPC sampler. The column temperature was set at 35℃; hexafluoroisopropanol containing 20 mmol / L sodium trifluoroacetate was used as the eluent; the flow rate was set at 1 mL / min; and the relative molecular mass was corrected using nine different standard polymethyl methacrylates with relative molecular masses ranging from 1010 to 766000 to obtain Mw and PDI.
[0097] In the following embodiments and comparative examples:
[0098] The mass percentage of PGA resin grafted onto graphene in PGA-based resin edge-grafted graphene can be determined by thermogravimetric analysis. For example, under nitrogen flow rate of 20.0 ml / min, the mass loss of the PGA-based resin edge-grafted graphene sample from 50.00℃ to 800.00℃ at a heating rate of 10.00℃ / min represents the mass percentage of PGA grafted onto the graphene.
[0099] The average sheet diameter (average sheet size) of PGA-based resin edge-grafted graphene can be obtained by imaging with a scanning electron microscope (SEM) and randomly measuring the size of more than 10 graphene sheets to calculate the average value. The method for measuring the size of a single graphene sheet is as follows: draw three lines through the center of the graphene sheet, with an angle of approximately 60° between the lines. Measure the length of the graphene sheet along these three lines and calculate the average value as the size of this graphene sheet. The aspect ratio is calculated as the average sheet diameter / average thickness of the PGA-based resin edge-grafted graphene. The scanning electron microscope used is a Hitachi S4800 from Japan.
[0100] The thermal conductivity of graphene was tested using a Netzsch LFA467 instrument from Germany, and the testing method followed the GB / T22588-2008 standard. The thermal conductivity (K) of the test sample can be calculated using the following formula: K=α×Cp×ρ, where α is the thermal diffusivity, Cp is the specific heat capacity, and ρ is the bulk density. The mechanism involves a laser source instantaneously emitting a light pulse at a set temperature, uniformly irradiating the sample surface. The surface absorbs the light energy, causing an instantaneous temperature rise, which then acts as a heat transfer point, propagating the energy in both planar and vertical directions via thermal conduction. An infrared detector continuously measures the corresponding temperature rise at the center of the sample surface, obtaining a curve showing the relationship between the detector signal (temperature) and time. A corrected curve is obtained through appropriate mathematical modeling, from which the thermal diffusivity can be calculated.
[0101] The test items in Table 4 should be performed according to the following method:
[0102] Pressure bearing strength: The temporary plugging ball with the measured diameter is installed in the temporary plugging ball pressure bearing evaluation instrument. The diameter of the temporary plugging ball d should be ≥ 1.25 cm and the diameter of the ball seat hole. The temporary plugging ball is subjected to pressure tests starting from 40 MPa. It is qualified if it does not puncture or leak after 5 minutes of pressure stabilization. The pressure at which the temporary plugging ball does not break within 3 hours of small-scale testing is the pressure bearing strength.
[0103] The 75MPa stabilization time is the time it takes for the temporary plug to rupture under a pressure of 75MPa.
[0104] The elastic deformation rate and elastic recovery rate were tested under the conditions of 25℃ and 50MPa pressure.
[0105] Determination of the coefficient of friction: GB / T 10006-2021 Determination of the coefficient of friction of plastic films and sheets. The coefficient of friction describes the ratio between sliding friction and normal force (force perpendicular to the contact surface) when two surfaces are in contact. The coefficient of friction tester used was purchased from IDM Instruments, Australia, model C0055-M3.
[0106] The calculation method for degradation rate, degradation rate D,
[0107] D = (m1 + m2 - m3) / m2 × 100%, where:
[0108] D-degradation rate,
[0109] M1 - Mass of rapid quantitative filter paper, g;
[0110] Mass of M2-temporarily plugging ball sample, g;
[0111] M3 - Mass of residue and residual filter paper after sample degradation, g
[0112] Example 1
[0113] (1) Preparation of graphene modified by edge grafting of PGA-based resins:
[0114] As shown in Table 1, 100.0 g of PGA-based resin and 120 g of flake graphite (Qingdao Santong Graphite Co., Ltd., with a fixed carbon content of 94%-99.9%) were added to a high-pressure grinding vessel equipped with supercritical fluid circulation. A mixture of carbon dioxide, nitrogen, and argon (carbon dioxide:nitrogen:argon = 30:65:5, by weight) was introduced, and the mixture was then ground and mixed in the high-pressure grinding vessel with supercritical fluid circulation to obtain PGA-based resin edge-grafted modified graphene powder. The grinding and mixing temperature was 45℃, the mixed gas pressure (i.e., the pressure of the high-pressure grinding vessel) was 15 MPa, the grinding speed was set to 100 rpm, and the grinding was carried out for 96 hours. The prepared PGA-based resin edge-grafted modified graphene was observed by scanning electron microscopy, and its average sheet size was approximately 3.1 μm, the average thickness was 2.7 nm, and the aspect ratio was 1148:1. TGA testing showed that the PGA grafted onto the edge-grafted graphene of the PGA-based resin contained 16.2% by mass. The thermal conductivity of the edge-grafted graphene of the PGA-based resin was measured to be 269 W / m·K.

The granules were placed in an injection molding machine and heated to a molten state. The granules were then injected into the inner cavity of a spherical mold with a set diameter. After demolding, the temporary plugging balls were placed in a vacuum oven at 100°C for annealing for 3 hours to remove internal stress, thus obtaining PGA temporary plugging balls. Annealing temperature, annealing time, and injection molding process parameters: injection pressure, holding pressure, mold temperature, and injection speed are shown in Table 3. The hydrolysis test, sealing pressure, and elastic deformation test results of the temporary plugging balls are shown in Table 4. The diameter of the prepared temporary plugging balls is 20 mm.

[0127] Example 12
[0128] (1) Preparation method of PGA-based resin edge-grafted modified graphene: Add PGA (100g), graphite powder (300 mesh, 120g), and grinding beads to a ball mill jar according to Comparative Example 1. Seal the jar with flange screws. Introduce a mixed gas (carbon dioxide: nitrogen: argon = 30:65:5, weight ratio) into the jar through a gas filling device until the pressure reaches 15MPa. Remove the gas device, slowly open the gas valve at the other end of the jar, and empty the nitrogen in the jar.

[0144]
[0145]
[0146]
[0147] A comparison of Examples 4-6 with Examples 1-3 reveals that when the grinding disc speed decreases to 80 rpm, the average sheet size increases, the PGA resin content in the grafted material decreases, and the thermal conductivity increases. In Example 7, compared to Example 1, under the same formulation conditions, reducing the grinding disc time increases the average sheet size, slightly increases the PGA resin content in the grafted material, and decreases the thermal conductivity. In Example 8, compared to Example 1, under the same formulation conditions, increasing the grinding disc time increases the average sheet size, slightly decreases the PGA resin content in the grafted material, and increases the thermal conductivity. In Example 9, compared to Example 1 (300 mesh, 48 μm), the grinding disc reaction conditions are the same, but the flake graphite diameter is reduced to 25 μm (500 mesh), resulting in a smaller average sheet size, a lower aspect ratio, a slightly increased PGA resin content in the grafted material, and a decreased thermal conductivity.

[0150]
[0151] Note: In Table 2, (1) the preparation of the PGA composition is based on the principle of similarity and compatibility.

[0154] Table 4 Performance of PGA Temporary Stamping Ball
[0155]
[0156]
[0157] As shown in Tables 1-4, compared to Example 1, Comparative Example 1, without the addition of bio-based elastomers, exhibits higher stiffness but a shorter stabilization time. Compared to Example 1, Comparative Example 2, without the addition of chain extenders, shows lower compressive strength and a shorter stabilization time due to the lack of physical cross-linking points between molecules. Compared to Example 1, Comparative Example 3, without nucleating agents, shows lower stiffness, excessively high elastic deformation rate, and lower plugging efficiency. Compared to Example 1, Comparative Example 4, without hydrolysis inhibitors, exhibits faster hydrolysis, resulting in poor performance in terms of compressive strength and stabilization time in an aqueous environment. Table 4 also shows that, compared to Example 1, Example 10 shows a decrease in friction coefficient with increasing PGA edge-modified graphene content. Compared to Example 1, Example 11, using antioxidant III, shows a certain improvement in compressive strength of the PGA plugging ball and an 11% extension of the 75 MPa stabilization time.
[0158] Compared to Example 1, the temporary plugging ball in Examples 2-3 and Examples 5-6 compared to Example 4 has a lower compressive strength. This is because the polyglycolic acid is selected from copolymers, PGA-LA and PGA-CL, which have lower original flexural modulus and stiffness.
[0159] Compared to Example 12, Example 1 features edge-grafted modified graphene sheets with larger diameters, greater aspect ratios, and higher thermal conductivity, resulting in better reinforcement. When the amount of PGA edge-modified graphene added in Examples 1 and 12 is the same (4wt%), the resulting temporary plugging ball exhibits higher compressive strength, longer pressure stabilization time under a certain pressure, higher elastic recovery rate, and lower friction coefficient, thus better meeting the application requirements of temporary plugging balls in oil and gas development.
