Effect of Phosphate Group Addition on the Properties of Denture Base Resins [PDF]

, 2008
Statement of problem Acrylic resins are prone to microbial adherence, especially by Candida albicans. Surface-charged resins alter the ionic interaction between the denture resin and Candida hyphae, and these resins are being developed as a means to ...

A comprehensive evaluation of the effect of key parameters on the performance of DTPA chelating agent in modifying sandstone surface charge

Heliyon, 2023
Despite the positive aspects of low salinity water (LSW), this technique is relatively expensive and unavailable in some countries. Furthermore, potential problems associated with LSW such as scale precipitation in carbonate reservoirs and fine migration

Enhanced Oil Recovery by Cyclic Injection of Wettability Alteration Agent for Tight Reservoirs

Geofluids, 2021
Low primary recovery factor and rapid production decline necessitates the proposal of enhanced oil recovery methods to mobilize the remaining oil resource of tight reservoirs, especially for oil-wet ones, and wettability alteration by injecting a ...

Wettability Alteration by Carbonated Brine Injection and Its Impact on Pore-Scale Multiphase Flow for Carbon Capture and Storage and Enhanced Oil Recovery in a Carbonate Reservoir

Applied Sciences, 2020
Carbon capture and storage is key for sustainable economic growth. CO2-enhanced oil recovery (EOR) methods are efficient practices to reduce emissions while increasing oil production. Although it has been successfully implemented in carbonate reservoirs,

Aging Effect on Rock Wettability Alteration

Journal of Petroleum Research and Studies, 2022
One of the factors controlling fluid distribution in porous media is wettability, which is ranging from water-wet to oil wet. Wettability could be changed due to the long-time contact with hydrocarbon liquids. Wettability alteration resulting from the aging of core samples in hydrocarbon liquids becomes a widely used technique.
