Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="main"> <title>ABSTRACT</title> <p>The monomers <italic>N</italic>‐allyl camphor sulfonamide (CSAP) and <italic>N</italic>, <italic>N</italic>‐diallyl camphor sulfonamide (CSDAP) were copolymerized with acrylamide (AM), acrylic acid (AA) for EOR, respectively. The effect of the synthesis conditions on apparent viscosity was investigated, and the copolymers were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), ¹H nuclear magnetic resonance (¹H NMR), environmental scanning electron microscope (ESEM), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Increasing mass ratio of diallyl CSDAP could lead to the water‐insoluble of copolymer, and competition of free radicals could make polymerization of AM/AA/CSDAP more difficult than AM/AA/CSAP. The thickening function and temperature resistance of two copolymers were remarkably improved in comparison with similar molecular weight partially hydrolyzed polyacrylamide (HPAM). In addition, the pronounced temperature resistance of the copolymers has been also demonstrated by temperature resistance test. It has also found that copolymers AM/AA/CSAP and AM/AA/CSDAP brine solutions could obtain significant enhanced oil recovery at 70°C suggesting their potential being applied in chemical enhanced oil recovery. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
