Abstract: Abstract A novel fracturing fluid (NAF) comprising of self-synthesized β-cyclodextrin-functionalized hydrophobically associative polymer (HMPAM) and viscoelastic surfactant (VES) was developed. The apparent viscosity of NAF was several times more than that of HMPAM and VES… read more here.

Abstract: A Brownian dynamics simulation algorithm is used to describe the static behaviour of associative polymer solutions across a range of concentrations into the semidilute unentangled regime. Predictions for the fractions of stickers bound by intra-chain… read more here.
