“…Besides polymer content, injection rate and temperature also determine the recipe of a biopolymer solution. Compared with synthetic polymers, the poor thermostability is the most disadvantaged in Guar gum, which makes it unsuitable at higher temperatures than 83 • C. Holding better thermostability, modified Guar such as Carboxymethyl Guar gum (CMG), Carboxymethyl Hydroxypropyl Guar (CMHPG) and cellulose-based polymers such as Carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), Hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC), and Carboxymethyl hydroxyethyl cellulose (CMHEC) are alternative biopolymers applied at high temperature [113,114]. The modification brought excellent stability that maintains the viscosity at temperatures up to 160 • C [115].…”

Polysaccharide biopolymers are biomacromolecules derived from renewable resources with versatile functions including thickening, crosslinking, adsorption, etc. Possessing high efficiency and low cost, they have brought wide applications in all phases of petroleum recovery, from well drilling to wastewater treatment. The biopolymers are generally utilized as additives of fluids or plugging agents, to correct the fluid properties that affect the performance and cost of petroleum recovery. This review focuses on both the characteristics of biopolymers and their utilization in the petroleum recovery process. Research on the synthesis and characterization of polymers, as well as controlling their structures through modification, aims to develop novel recipes of biopolymer treatment with new application realms. The influences of biopolymer in many petroleum recovery cases were also evaluated to permit establishing the correlations between their physicochemical properties and performances. As their performance is heavily affected by the local environment, screening and testing polymers under controlled conditions is the necessary step to guarantee the efficiency and safety of biopolymer treatments.

“…1,2 As thickeners and proppants, cellulose-based compounds are used to improve the viscosity of hydraulic fracturing uid and brace behavior conferred to the cracks in the fracturing process. 3 However, with the appearance of disadvantages, including large water consumption, water pollution, stratum pollution, and a low owback rate, the hydraulic fracturing process is gradually being replaced by other fracturing processes. [4][5][6] Supercritical CO 2 (Sc-CO 2 ) has proven to be a good alternative for enhanced oil recovery and also fracturing uid formulation due to its environmental friendliness and low cost.…”

Nitroxide-mediated polymerization was successfully employed for well-defined graft copolymerization of styrene (St) monomer from cellulose (Cell) backbone. For this purpose, Cell was acylated by 2-bromoisobutyryl bromide, and then 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-1-piperidinyloxy (TEMPO) was immobilized onto Cell backbone using a nucleophilic substitution reaction to produce Cell-TEMPO macroinitiator. Afterward, St monomer was grafted onto Cell backbone through “grafting from” technique. The successful synthesis of Cell- g-polystyrene (PSt) copolymer was confirmed using Fourier transform infrared and proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopies and scanning electron microscopy analysis. Finally, Cell- g-PSt/montmorillonite nanocomposite was fabricated through solution intercalation approach. The thermal properties and structural morphology of the resultant nanocomposite were investigated using thermogravimetric analysis and differential scanning calorimetry and transmission electron microscopy, respectively.
