Nanofluids of Amphiphilic Kaolinite-Based Janus Nanosheets for Enhanced Oil Recovery: The Importance of Stable Emulsion

To meet the increasing global demand for energy, better recovery of crude oil from reservoirs must be achieved using methods that are economical and environmentally benign. Here, we have developed a nanofluid of amphiphilic clay-based Janus nanosheets via a facile and scalable method that provides p...
