Abstract: A method of preparing a fracturing fluid (YY) that includes (i) selecting an anionic surfactant (AS), for example an anionic sulphonate surfactant; and (ii) contacting the anionic surfactant (AS) with a fracturing fluid (XX) or with a precursor of said fracturing fluid (XX), wherein fracturing fluid (XX) may incorporate a friction reducer formulation.

Abstract: The present invention provides a carboxyl group-containing polymer and a composition containing the polymer which exhibit excellent anti-soil redeposition ability in fabric washing. The carboxyl group-containing polymer includes specific ratios of a structure unit (a) derived from an ether bond-containing monomer (A), a structure unit (b) derived from a sulfonic acid group-containing monomer (B), and a structure unit (c) derived from an acrylic acid-based monomer (C), and has a specific weight average molecular weight. The carboxyl group-containing polymer composition contains the carboxyl group-containing polymer and a specific amount of a hydrogen sulfite adduct of the acrylic acid-based monomer (C).

Abstract: The present invention is directed to fluid fabric enhancing compositions and processes of making and using same. Such fluid fabric enhancing compositions have a desirable fabric enhancer active efficiency that is, at least in part, due to the particle index of such fluid fabric enhancing compositions. Certain chemical processing and physical processing methods are not required to produce such compositions.
