Abstract:
A friction reducing treatment solution that includes water, from 100 to 500,000 ppm of total dissolved solids, and from 0.5 to 3 gallons per thousand gallons of a water-in-oil emulsion containing a water soluble polymer. The total dissolved solids include at least 10 weight percent of a multivalent cation. The water-in-oil emulsion includes an oil phase and an aqueous phase, where the oil phase is a continuous phase containing an inert hydrophobic liquid and the aqueous phase is present as dispersed distinct particles in the oil phase and contains water, the water soluble polymer, and surfactants and an inverting surfactant. The water soluble polymer is made up of 30 to 60 weight percent of a non-ionic monomer, 5 to 50 weight percent of a sulfonic acid containing monomer, and 10 to 60 weight percent of a cationic monomer and makes up from 5 to 40 weight percent of the water-in-oil emulsion.
Abstract:
A aqueous solution that includes water, from 100,000 to 300,000 ppm of dissolved solids, from 0.5 to 3 gallons per thousand gallons of a water-in-oil emulsion, and an inverting surfactant. The water-in oil emulsion includes an oil phase and an aqueous phase where the oil phase is a continuous phase comprising an inert hydrophobic liquid and the aqueous phase is present as dispersed distinct particles in the oil phase. The aqueous phase contains water, a water soluble polymer, and surfactants. The water soluble polymer includes 30 to 50 weight percent of a non-ionic monomer, 5 to 15 weight percent of a sulfonic acid containing monomer, and 40 to 60 weight percent of a cationic monomer. The water soluble polymer makes up from 10 to 35 weight percent of the water-in-oil emulsion.
Abstract:
Conducting polymer systems for hole injection or transport layer applications including a composition comprising: a water soluble or water dispersible regioregular polythiophene comprising (i) at least one organic substituent, and (ii) at least one sulfonate substituent comprising sulfonate sulfur bonding directly to the polythiophene backbone. The polythiophene can be water soluble, water dispersible, or water swellable. They can be self-doped. The organic substituent can be an alkoxy substituent, or an alkyl substituent. OLED, PLED, SMOLED, PV, and ESD applications can be used.
Abstract:
Polymers comprising a backbone comprising at least one arylamine repeat moiety and at least one linking moiety, wherein the linking moiety does not comprise an aryl moiety. Ink formulations and organic electronic devices such as OLEDs or OPVs can be formed from the polymers and doped polymers. The polymers can be used in a hole injection layer, hole transport layer, a hole extraction layer, or as a host material in an emissive layer. Improved stability can be achieved in organic electronic devices such as OLEDs and OPVs.
Abstract:
A polymer dispersion includes a water-soluble copolymer prepared by controlled radical polymerization; a water soluble salt; a polyol; a salt selected from the group consisting of sodium citrate, sodium phosphate, sodium nitrate, and combinations thereof; and water. Methods for using the polymer dispersion for oilfield friction reduction occur under a variety of adverse conditions including low temperatures, salt, scale, and iron.
