A new polymer sc-CTS-st, containing long-chain saturated aliphatic hydrocarbon, hydroxyl group and benzene ring, was synthesized and found to be able to dissolve in heavy oil and interact with asphaltene, leading to a significant reduction in viscosity and alteration of asphaltene's supramolecular structure.
The high viscosity of heavy oil made it difficult to exploit and transport heavy oil in pipeline. In this research, N-[(2-hydroxy-3-trimethylammonium) propyl] O-stearoyl chitosan tetraphenylboride (sc-CTS-st) was synthesized from chitosan, 2, 3-epoxy-propyl trimethyl ammonium chloride, sodium tetraphenylboron and stearyl chloride. sc-CTS-st contains long chain saturated aliphatic hydrocarbon, hydroxyl group and benzene ring, which could be dissolved in heavy oil fully and interacted with asphaltene. At 50 degrees C, the viscosity of heavy oil could be reduced to 13,800 mPa center dot s at most, with a viscosity reduction rate of 57.54 %. SEM and XRD showed that sc-CTS-st could affect the supramolecular accumulation structure of asphaltenes. Using FT-IR, sc-CTS-st could interact with asphaltene in the form of hydrogen bonds using the polar parts of the molecule, thereby weakening the self-association between asphaltene molecules. Molecular simulation was used to demonstrate the interaction mechanism between chitosan derivatives and asphaltenes. sc-CTS-st interacted with asphaltene through chemical bonding and influenced the self-association of asphaltene molecules. In addition, the non-polar portion of sc-CTS-st molecules could form a coating on the outside of the asphaltenes stacking structure, thus shielding or reducing the polarity of the stacking structure surface.
