Optimizing Colloidal Stability and Transport of Polysaccharide-Coated Magnetic Nanoparticles for Reservoir Management: Effects of Ion Specificity

In this work we explore the mechanisms of ion-specific stabilization of a polysaccharide-based coating for colloidal nanomaterials used within the oil & gas industry. While nanotechnology has wide prevalence across multiple industries, its utility within this sector is largely undeveloped bu...
