Abstract: Abstract The Equivalent Alkane Carbon Numbers (EACNs) of 16 aprotic polar hydrocarbon oils are measured by the fish-tail method. These values, supplemented by 54 already reported EACNs of other hydrocarbon oils are used, as a… read more here.

Abstract: A successful surfactant flood maximizes oil recovery by achieving ultralow oil/water interfacial tension (IFT) at the optimal salinity (S*). Optimal salinity, among other parameters, is dependent on the equivalent alkane carbon number (EACN) of the… read more here.
