Polyamide-6 is a thermoplastic polymer that is classified as electrically non-conductive materials. One way of adding conductivity to the polymer matrices is by utilizing them in a nanocomposite form. Superior mechanical and electrical properties of Carbon Nanotubes make them worthy of being chosen as reinforcement in nanocomposites to extend their operation to a broader range of applications, like conductive nanocomposites, mainly polymer-based matrices. The Nanotubes have chemical affinity and tend to entangle and aggregate. Because of this, to achieve a uniform and remarkable electrical conductivity is hard-to-reach. state of entanglement effects correctly melt methods of polymer blend... 

Nowadays, the development of different polymer blend nanocomposites is of great importance for achieving electrical and antistatic properties for various applications such as auto parts and the packaging industry. Immiscible polymer blends with conductive nanoparticles such as carbon nanotube, graphene, etc. can reach the conductivity threshold with low amounts of nanoparticles and produce desired electrical properties. In the present study, we have attempted to develop a polystyrene(PS)/ethylene-octene copolymer(EOC)/carbon nanotube(CNT) blend nanocomposite with suitable electrical conductivity. The compounding was performed by melt mixing at two weight percent of 80/20 and 50/50 (PS/EOC)... 

Recognizing the preformed particle gel (PPG) transport mechanisms in fracture and the effective parameters on them, is a necessary knowledge to design a successful gel treatment operation. In this research the transport behavior of PPGs was investigated in two fractured micro-models. During PPG propagation in fracture, the gel dehydration causes to produce a large filtrate volume and sweep the matrix oil. In the fracture/matrix interface, the gel particles can deform, break or shrink, then penetrate a few millimeters into matrix pores and form an impermeable gel cake, which is the main mechanism of conformance control. The effective parameters on PPG transport behavior such as Nano-silica... 

In this study, the synthesis conditions of polyaniline were optimized in order to produce a blend based on polypropylene (PP) containing polyaniline (PANI) with the electrical conductivity in the antistatic range. A form of PANI that has adequate electrical conductivity and thermal stability, which is suitable for melt-mixing and melt-spinning conditions, was synthesized. Thermal stability and electrical conductivity of polyaniline were investigated by thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA), differential calorimetric analysis (DSC) and high-temperature electrical conductivity. It was found that the synthesized PANI has required thermal stability and electrical conductivity (106 ohm.cm) at the... 

The process of injecting acid or acidizing, is one of the most common ways to stimulate oil and gas wells. The purpose of this process is to increase the productivity of the well by increasing the permeability of the reservoir rock around the well. This is especially important in carbonate reservoirs due to damage to the formation and low intrinsic permeability in some places. In order to minimize the effects of structural damage, conventional wormhole channels are created to pass through the injured area. One of the important factors in acid validation is achieving optimal injection rate, which means obtaining the highest permeability with the lowest amount of injected acid.Numerous...
