Waxy crude oil has become a crucial unconventional oil alternative owing to the depleting
conventional oil resources. However, ascertaining flow assurance in a waxy crude oil …

The research on the flowability of waxy oil has spanned more than a century and is still
attracting much attention. How to improve the flowability of waxy oil to ensure safe and …

Complex fluids and soft materials are ubiquitous in nature and industry. In industrial
processes, these materials often get exposed to high hydrostatic pressures. Some examples …

N-containing pour point depressants (PPDs) for diesel fuel were synthesized by
polymerizing tetradecyl methacrylate (C 14 MC) with N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidinone (NVP), N …

In this study, a series of polymethacrylate polymers of tetradecyl methacrylate-N-
benzylmaleimide copolymers (C 14 MC-BMI), tetradecyl methacrylate-4-acryloylmorpholine …

The addition of benzyl methacrylate–methacrylate copolymers to diesel significantly
improves its cold flow properties, but it is always limited by a large dosage. To improve the …

Due to the excellent structural diversity, polymethacrylates was considered as the effective
cold flow improvers (CFIs) for diesel. To investigate the structure–activity relationship and …

The precipitation and deposition of asphaltenes often cause great troubles to the recovery
and transportation of crude oil. Adding polymer inhibitors is an effective approach to prevent …

The as-synthesized copolymer based on the prepared monomers and its nanohybrid were
used for improving the cold flow of diesel fuel that has a vital role in meeting energy needs …

Asphaltene adsorption at rock surfaces has important effects on enhanced oil recovery
(EOR) in the petroleum industry. In this work, the adsorption interaction of asphaltene with …
