Abstract: A hydrate kinetic inhibitor, which is prepared by a polymerization of mercaptoethanol and N-vinylcaprolactam, is hydroxyl terminated poly(N-vinylcaprolactam) having a structure of formula (I) below, wherein n=10 to 1000. The inhibitor is a novel hydrate kinetic inhibitor, which has low effective concentration and high cloud point, and is effective when the degree of supercooling is relatively high.

Abstract: A vinylamide block copolymer kinetic hydrate inhibitor and a preparation method thereof are disclosed. The vinylamide block copolymer kinetic hydrate inhibitor has a structural formula as shown in formula I. Through reverse atom transfer radical polymerization, under an anaerobic operating condition, with vinylcaprolactam and acrylamide as monomers, dimethylformamide as a solvent, azobisisobutyronitrile as an initiator, and a transition metal complex composed of a catalyst anhydrous copper chloride and a ligand 2,2?-bipyridine as a catalytic system, the method has achieved to catalyze a controllable free radical solution polymerization to obtain a poly(vinylcaprolactam-acrylamide) block copolymer kinetic hydrate inhibitor. The synthesized kinetic hydrate inhibitor has a controllable molecular weight, a narrow molecular weight distribution, and a controllable synthesis process, and exhibits an excellent inhibitory effect.
