Abstract: Cationic and non-ionic fluorochemicals, mixtures of cationic and non-ionic fluorochemicals, blends of the mixtures with fluorochemical poly(oxyalkylenes), and compositions of the fluorochemicals with hydrocarbon nonionic surfactants are provided. These fluorochemicals and compositions, in dispersions, emulsions and microemulsions, may be applied to porous fibrous substrates to give oil and water repellancy and soil resistance.

Abstract: Selected sulfur-containing compounds function as solution viscosity stabilizers in aqueous compositions comprising acrylamide polymers containing a redox couple or components which can produce a redox couple in the presence of the solution. The aqueous compositions are useful in post-primary oil recovery involving the use of thickened fluids as mobility buffers and mobility control agents.
