摘要
The molecular conformation and hydrophilicity/ hydrophobicity of temperature-sensitive polymers can be changed at different temperatures, which can be used as additive in drilling fluid to adjust the network structure between clay particles and polymers and improve its rheological property. In this study, a novel temperature-sensitive copolymer P(NVCL-co-DMAM) was synthesized by using temperature-sensitive unit N-vinylcaprolactam (NVCL) and N, N-dimethylacrylamide (DMAM), initiated by azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN). Its molecular structure, molecular weight and distribution were characterized. The effects of salinity, pH value and copolymer concentrations on lower critical solution temperature(LCST)were studied. Based on the temperature-sensitive property of the copolymer, its capability to control the low-temperature rheology of water-based drilling fluid was evaluated. The results show that P(NVCL-co-DMAM) can effectively control the rheology of deep-water water-based drilling fluid in the range of 4-60 ℃. The copolymer has high temperature and salt tolerance, which can withstand the large temperature alternation during deep-water drilling process. © 2021, Editorial Office of Journal of China University of Petroleum(Edition of Natural Science).
