The invention relates to the technical field of oilfield
chemistry, in particular to a reductive tetrahydroxy
quaternary ammonium salt, a preparation method thereof and a low-temperature reservoir
fracturing fluid assistant.The reductive tetrahydroxy
quaternary ammonium salt is prepared according to the following steps that firstly, a needed amount of 2, 3-epoxypropyl trimethyl
ammonium chloride is dissolved in water, and a reaction solution is obtained; and 2, introducing
nitrogen into the reaction solution to remove
oxygen, adding a required amount of
hydroxylamine hydrochloride to obtain a reaction
mixed solution, and reacting to obtain an
aqueous solution of the reductive tetrahydroxy
quaternary ammonium salt. The reductive tetrahydroxy quaternary ammonium salt provided by the invention has high reducibility, simultaneously contains four cations and four hydroxyls, and has the characteristics of strong polarity, small molecular weight and high
charge density. The low-temperature reservoir
fracturing fluid additive prepared by taking the reductive tetrahydroxy quaternary ammonium salt as a
raw material has dual functions of a low-temperature activator and a clay stabilizer, and can be used for low-temperature reservoir fracturing transformation.
