- A facile route towards the preparation of ultra-long-Chain amidosulfobetaine surfactants
-
A series of novel, ultra-long-chain amidosulfobetaine surfactants were prepared by amidation of ultra-long-chain fatty acids directly with N,N-dimethyl-1,3-propanediamine in the absence of solvents, followed by quaternization of the intermediates with 1,3-propanesultone in ethyl acetate.

- Synthesis and surface activities of amidobetaine surfactants with ultra-long unsaturated hydrophobic chains
-
Recent studies have shown that the surfactants bearing an ultra-long hydrophobic chain (>C18) exhibit unique self-assembly properties. However, their synthesis and surface activities have been less documented. In this work, monounsaturated alkyl dimethyl amidopropyl betaines, UCnDAB (n = 18, 22, and 24), were prepared by the reaction of the corresponding fatty acids with N,N-dimethyl-1,3-propanediamine, followed by quaternization with sodium choloroacetate of the obtained intermediates. The intermediates and final surfactants were characterized by 1H NMR and ESI-HRMS, respectively. Krafft temperature (TK) and surface activities of the surfactants were also examined. It was found that TK of all these surfactants is lower than 0°C, and their critical micellar concentration (CMC) is within the range of 10-3 mmol/L. In addition, the linear relationship between lg CMC and n is still in evidence.

- Synthesis and Evaluation of Novel Amido-Amine Cationic Gemini Surfactants Containing Flexible and Rigid Spacers
-
New amido-amine-based cationic gemini surfactants with flexible and rigid spacers and different hydrophobic tails were synthesized and characterized. These gemini surfactants were prepared by a modified procedure through amidation of long chain carboxylic acids using 3-(dimethylamino)-1-propylamine followed by treatment with halohydrocarbons. The effect of the trans and cis conformation of the spacer double bond was investigated by means of critical micelle concentration, surface tension reduction, and thermal stability. The short-term thermal stability of the gemini surfactants was assessed using thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and the long-term thermal stability was examined by a unique approach based on structure characterization techniques including NMR (1H and 13C) and FTIR analysis. TGA results demonstrated excellent short-term thermal stability since no structure degradation was observed up to 200?°C. Structural characterization revealed impressive long-term thermal stability of the gemini surfactants with no structure decomposition after exposing them to 90?°C for 10?days. The critical micelle concentration of gemini surfactants was found to be in the range of 0.77?×?10?4–3.61?×?10?4?mol?L?1 and corresponding surface tension (γCMC) ranged from 30.34 to 38.12?mN?m?1. The surfactant with the trans conformation of spacer double bond showed better surface properties compared to the surfactant with the cis conformation of spacer double bond. Similarly, increasing surfactant tail length and spacer length resulted in decreasing CMC values. Moreover, bromide counterion showed improved surface properties compared to chloride counterion.

- Unusual pH-responsive fluid based on a simple tertiary amine surfactant: The formation of vesicles and wormlike micelles
-
A novel pH-responsive viscoelastic micellar system was prepared by N,N-dimethyl oleoaminde-propylamine without the addition of hydrotropes. The micellar system undergoes a gradual transition from vesicles to spherical micelles to wormlike micelles by adding an HCl solution. Rheology, Cryo-TEM and dynamic light scattering (DLS) results revealed that the pH-responsive flow behavior is attributed to the microstructural transition among the spherical micelles, vesicles and worm-like micelles. In this paper, we found out that a vesicle is extremely pH sensitive because the degree of protonation and the concentration of Cl- strongly affect the pH areas which could form worm-like micelles. The notable advantages of vesicles and worm-like micelles can be utilized to prepare pH-responsive viscoelastic fluids in the desired pH areas. This journal is

- Synthesis and evaluation of magnetic surfactants for high temperature oilfield application
-
Magnetic surfactants are a unique class of amphiphiles that can manage self-assembly in a controlled manner in the presence of the applied magnetic field. However, any surfactant for oilfield application must be soluble in water and exhibit high heat stability as it needs to stay in harsh reservoir conditions. Herein, we report a synthesis of two new magnetic surfactants that contain different hydrophobic moieties (ethoxylated alky tail and oleic tail). The chemical structures of the magnetic surfactants and their nonmagnetic parent surfactants were elucidated by ESI-MS, NMR (1H, 13C), and FTIR analysis. Both surfactants display good aqueous solubility due to the insertion of ethoxy units and unsaturation in the hydrophobic tail. The effect of hydrophobic tails on heat and surface/interface properties was investigated. Rendering to thermal gravimetric curves, the degradation temperature of magnetic surfactants was near 270 °C. This clearly showed that the magnetic surfactants contain high thermal stability for elevated temperature reservoirs. However, the effect of change of hydrophobic tail appears to be insignificant in thermal stability tests. An analysis of the surface tension showed that magnetic surfactants were more effective than corresponding nonmagnetic surfactants exhibiting higher surface tension (γ) reduction of water even with no magnetic field. Moreover, the magnetic surfactant containing an ethoxylated alkyl tail showed more surface tension (γ) reduction of water than a magnetic surfactant with an oleic tail. The research outcome on the synthesized magnetic surfactants makes them an attractive choice in a harsh oilfield environment. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report on the magnetic surfactants that can toleratate high temperature reservoir conditions.

- Effect of large spacer on surface activity, thermal, and rheological properties of novel amido-amine cationic gemini surfactants
-
Three new amido-amine cationic gemini surfactants comprising large spacer groups were synthesized by amidation of carboxylic acids with 3-(dimethylamino)-1-propylamine and subsequent reaction with dibromoalkane. The structures of gemini surfactants were elucidated by NMR, IR, and elemental techniques. Thermogravimetric analysis results showed impressive short-range thermal stability with no structure decomposition up to 260?°C. The structural characterization technique exhibited excellent long-range thermal stability with the survival of original structure of the gemini surfactants after aging them up to 90?°C for ten days. The critical micelle concentration readings were ranged from 0.094?mmol/L to 0.15?mmol/L and the analogous surface tension (γcmc) values were ranged from 34.12?mN/m to 36.47?mN/m. The rheological investigation was done to examine the interactions between cationic polyacrylamide and cationic gemini surfactants. The polymer viscosity and storage modulus were reduced upon addition of gemini surfactants at low shear rate because of charge screening and polymer-surfactant interactions. The gemini surfactants revealed excellent thermal and surface properties and the investigated surfactant-polymer hybrid material found to be an excellent candidate of high-temperature carbonate reservoir in which anionic surfactants are avoided because of high adsorption.
