The invention relates to the technical field of oilfield
chemistry, in particular to an aminoethanesulfonic acid type surfactant and a preparation method and application thereof.The preparation method of the aminoethanesulfonic acid type surfactant comprises the steps that firstly,
fatty amine is dissolved in a first
solvent, a
sodium chloroethanesulfonate
aqueous solution is added, and N-long-chain
alkyl-2-
sodium aminoethanesulfonate is obtained through a reaction; and 2, dissolving a required amount of N-long-chain
alkyl-2-
sodium aminoethanesulfonate in a second
solvent, adding a required amount of
methyl acrylate, and reacting to obtain the aminoethanesulfonic acid type surfactant. The aminoethanesulfonic acid type surfactant disclosed by the invention contains long-chain
alkyl, amino, ester groups and
sulfonic acid groups, so that the aminoethanesulfonic acid type surfactant has good surface activity and can meet the development requirements of oil and gas fields. The
microemulsion cleanup additive prepared from the aminoethanesulfonic acid type surfactant can effectively reduce the
surface tension and the interfacial tension of an
aqueous solution, and the preparation method is easy and convenient to operate, mild in condition and suitable for industrial production.
