Ultralow-permeability oil reservoirs are characterized by small pore throats, ultralow permeability, and high fluid flow resistance, which often lead to challenging injection during water flooding processes. Black nanosheet, as an emerging sheet-like nano oil displacement material, can alter the wettability of reservoir rocks, effectively improving water injection performance. However, its dispersion stability in an aqueous solution is insufficient, leading to probable aggregation during water flooding and affecting the oil recovery efficiency. In this study, anionic-modified black nanosheet was developed using a chemical method. The dispersion stability of the anionic-modified black nanosheet was evaluated by using a multiple light stability analyzer and a ζ-potential analyzer. Additionally, the interfacial properties were assessed with a contact angle measurement instrument and emulsification experiments. Finally, the imbibition performance in ultralow-permeability oil reservoirs was evaluated through imbibition experiments combined with nuclear magnetic resonance technology. Results showed that sulfonate groups can be grafted onto black nanosheets by chemical methods. Anionic-modified black nanosheet exhibited a black sheet-like structure, showing potential applicability in ultralow-permeability oil reservoirs. The transmittance stability index (TSI) value of the anionic-modified black nanosheet decreased from 14.26 to 3.33, and the absolute value of ζ-potential increased from 10.4 to 27.5 mV, indicating significantly improved dispersion stability. The effect of anionic-modified black nanosheet on altering the surface wettability of oil-saturated rocks was more pronounced, and the crude oil emulsification effect was also enhanced. In addition, solutions of modified black nanosheets showed a better imbibition oil recovery performance. The nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) T 2 spectrum revealed at the microscopic scale that the modified black nanosheet could facilitate the better imbibition from the small pores of ultralow-permeability reservoir core samples, thereby enhancing the efficiency of microscopic flooding.

“…They are mostly produced by coal, natural gas, and oil in power plants (Xia et al 2023). Burning fossil fuels, incineration of solid waste, and vehicle emissions can all produce nanoscale particles (Yusuf et al 2024). High temperatures caused by explosions may also result in the formation of a complex combination of NPs (Wang et al 2020).…”

The growing interest in nanoparticles in modern research is due to their potential uses in different fields of study. Throughout human history, individuals have been exposed to environmental nanosized particles, and over the past century, these exposures have significantly risen. Through injection, ingestion, and inhalation, nanoparticles can change the material's physicochemical characteristics and improve its ability to absorb and interact with biological tissues. Nanoparticles can penetrate the cell membrane and reach up to mitochondria and nucleus, causing gene mutation and inhibiting the mitochondrial process involved in cell metabolism. The toxicity is associated with size, shape, charge, surface area, chemical composition, and other linked factors. The in vivo behavior of these nanoparticles is still a major question that needs to be resolved. The tests are performed against the new nanoparticles during the developmental process to eliminate or ameliorate identified toxic characteristics.
