Evaluation of oil-in-water emulsions with non-ionic and anionic surfactants mixtures for potential use in the oil industry Evaluación de emulsiones de crudo en agua con mezclas de surfactantes no-iónicos y aniónicos de uso potencial en la industria petrolera

In the present work, formulations to emulsify heavy crude oil in water, at crude oil/water relationship of 70/30, were evaluated. Non-ionic and anionic surfactants were used with amines of short chain as co-surfactants. Stability, viscosity, conductivity, drop size and size distribution, were evalua...
