Abstract: Articles of manufacture containing an extrusion-foamed polymeric composition. The extrusion-foamed polymeric composition contains an ethylene-based polymer and an olefin-based elastomer. The extrusion-foamed polymeric composition can be prepared from a foamable polymeric composition containing the ethylene-based polymer, the olefin-based elastomer, a nucleating agent, and a blowing agent. The extrusion-foamed polymeric composition can be prepared using an extrusion foaming process.

Abstract: Surfactants constructed from three synthetic building blocks that contain multiple hydrocarbon chains, ethyleneamine, and alkyl sulfonate salt groups, were shown to possess good thermal stability, and foamability, and high foam profiles. The materials are targeted for high temperature foaming applications, such as foam flooding enhanced oil recovery to improve conformance control and other oil and gas downhole foaming applications.
