The stability of the drag reducer emulsion was observed at room temperature for 90 days. The effects of the rheological regulator, phase transfer agent, and organic solvent on the stability and solubility of the drag reducer emulsion were studied. The dissolution time, dissolution effect, viscosity of the aqueous solution, and drag reduction performance of the drag reducer emulsion were evaluated. The results show the stability rate of the drag reducer emulsion prepared by MOST-1 rheological regulator, BHJ-8 and BHJ-6 compound phase inversion agent, ethylene glycol ether and 120 - 140 mesh powder can reach 97% at room temperature for 90 days. Compared with the drag reducer powder, when the aqueous solution concentration is 0.1%, the dissolution time is only 28 s, the viscosity can be increased by 30%, and the drag reduction rate can be increased by up to 8%.展开更多
