  • Hydrophobe associative polymers and compositions and methods employing them
    Patent number: 7056868
    Abstract: Water soluble associative polymers and compositions comprising them together with alkali metal salts of carboxylic acid are disclosed. Methods comprise introducing into a wellbore a fluid comprising such associative polymers and alkali metal salts of carboxylic acid, e.g., cesium formate. Disclosed water soluble associative polymers have functionality including at least sulfonate groups, carboxylate groups and hydrophobes associative with one another in a saturated aqueous solution of an alkali metal salt of a carboxylic acid.
    Type: Grant
