The viscoelastic surfactants (VES)-based acid diverters are frequently used to divert acid flow from high-permeability layers into low-permeability for enhanced overall productivity of the treated well. In general, an optimum VES-based system possesses advantages of decrease in absorption loss, damage of reservoir, and improved adaptability of active agents to high salinity. Herein, we report the synthesis of three new zwitterionic gemini surfactants (1-3) and previously known amidosulfobutaine (C18AMP3SB) has been accomplished for the investigation of diverting acid performance. The synthesis of these surfactants was achieved by the amidation of the acid chlorides of com. available fatty acids with 3-(dimethylamino)-1-propylamine followed by subsequent reactions with appropriate sultone or Et 4-bromobutanoate. The synthesized surfactants were well characterized by spectroscopic methods including IR and NMR spectroscopy. The thermogravimetric anal. (TGA) results suggested that surfactants (1-3) and C18AMP3SB possess excellent thermal stability, with no appreciable loss of mass up to 300°C. The viscosity measurements of the neat surfactants (1-3) and C18AMP3SB were performed under various temperatures, in the presence of different concentration of calcium chloride salt with the aid shear viscosimetry. The anal. revealed that the viscosity of neat C18AMP3SB increases with increase in concentration of CaCl2. In the experiment, the researchers used many compounds, for example, Ethyl 4-bromobutyrate(cas: 2969-81-5Electric Literature of C6H11BrO2)
Ethyl 4-bromobutyrate(cas: 2969-81-5) belongs to bromides. Most organobromine compounds, like most organohalide compounds, are relatively nonpolar. Bromine is more electronegative than carbon (2.9 vs 2.5). Consequently, the carbon in a carbon–bromine bond is electrophilic, i.e. alkyl bromides are alkylating agents.Electric Literature of C6H11BrO2
