Electrokinetic Stabilization of Formation Fines Using Surface Modified Polymer Silica Nanocomposites During Low Salinity Water Flooding for Enhanced Oil Recovery

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fines migration induced by low salinity water flooding severely impairs reservoir permeability and injectivity presenting a critical challenge in enhanced oil recovery. This study aims to synthesize and evaluate a surface‐modified polymer‐silica nanocomposite to mitigate clay mobilization and preserve the hydrodynamic capacity of porous media.

Dicarboxymethyl Cellulose‐Based Mixed‐Matrix Membrane Adsorbers: Preparation, Characterization, and Protein Retention Performance

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Dicarboxymethyl cellulose is incorporated, for the first time, into a polyethersulfone membrane. The functional membranes are prepared using dimethyl isosorbide through combined non‐solvent and vapor‐induced phase separation. The resulting membranes exhibit porous structures and protein‐retention potential, highlighting the potential of this cellulose ...

Concentration‐Dependent Lamellar Organization and Structure–Property Relationships in Melt‐Processed EVA/Cloisite 20A Nanocomposites

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Cloisite 20A content tunes the structural and mechanical response of melt‐processed ethylene‐vinyl acetate (EVA) nanocomposites. Expanded basal spacings at 5.0 and 7.5 wt% clay are consistent with polymer‐chain intercalation within ordered clay domains.

Environmental Interactions of Clays Clays and the Environment

open access: yes, 1998
Environmental Interactions of Clays is the companion volume of Bruce Velde's book on Origin and Mineralogy of Clays. In dealing with the role of clays in specific environmental issues, it is unique in its subject matter.

Zn/Al‐NO3 Layered Double Hydroxide as Alternative Activator for Nitrile Rubber Vulcanization: Effect of the Accelerator‐to‐Sulfur Ratio on Curing Kinetics and Network Properties

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Zn/Al‐NO3 layered double hydroxide offers a low‐zinc alternative for sulfur vulcanization of nitrile rubber, reducing nominal zinc loading by an estimated 71%. Its potential as a vulcanization activator depends on the curing system: conventional curing preserves tensile strength despite slower kinetics, whereas efficient curing maintains comparable ...

Molecular methods for differentiating Phragmites australis subspecies and identification of hybrid stands in the Upper Midwestern United States

open access: yesApplications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise In North America, Phragmites australis (common reed) has drawn a great deal of research attention. Non‐native P. australis subsp. australis is a noxious weed that has locally displaced native P. australis subsp. americanus in some areas.
