Abstract: Nano- and micro-particles (NMP) can be formed from an oil/water emulsion. The emulsion is made by mixing a liquid solvent, at least one surfactant, a particle-forming compound, and at least curing agent. If desired, pH control agents and viscosity enhancers can be added to the liquid solvent. The particle-forming compound and the curing agents are mixed together and form the oil phase in the emulsion and after curing, the particles are formed. The nano- and micro-particles can be used as proppant to enhance the conductivity of nano- and microfractures and fluid-loss-control additive for hydraulic fracturing operations.

Abstract: A method to determine the velocity of static proppant settling in fracturing fluids. The proppant carrying capability of different friction reducer products can be compared, so the appropriate friction reducer product can be selected for hydraulic fracturing operations. The effect of friction reducer concentrations in the fracturing fluids, the salinity and hardness of the fracturing fluids, and the proppant size on the velocity of static proppant settling can be studied to optimize the chemical structures of the friction reducers in the process of synthesis and optimize the hydraulic fracturing operation, e.g. to determine the proper concentration of friction reducers according to the salinity and proppant size.

Abstract: The invention discloses a continuous polyester fiber textile cloth that can be torn into pieces, processing equipment and a processing method. By ultrasonic hot-melting technology, the polyester fiber textile cloth is subjected to the high temperature generated by the high frequency generated by the action of a metal knife mold and an ultrasonic welding head, so that the thread of the loop layers and the base layer are melted in a line to form a thin line melting body that can be torn apart. The knife mold and the ultrasonic welding head are close to each other and resonate to generate heat. When they leave each other, the resonance disappears and the heat decreases, so as to realize the formation and temperature control of a linear high temperature zone.
