Molecular mechanism of viscoelastic polymer enhanced oil recovery in nanopores

Molecular mechanism of viscoelastic polymer enhanced oil recovery in nanopores

Polymer flooding is a promising chemical enhanced oil recovery (EOR) method, which realizes more efficient extraction in porous formations characterized with nanoscale porosity and complicated interfaces. Understanding the molecular mechanism of viscoelastic polymer EOR in nanopores is of great sign...
