Experimental Investigation of Polymer-Coated Silica Nanoparticles for Enhanced Oil Recovery

Recently, polymer-coated nanoparticles were proposed for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) due to their improved properties such as solubility, stability, stabilization of emulsions and low particle retention on the rock surface. This work investigated the potential of various polymer-coated silica nanopa...
