Reference number : GC-2017-Q2-00021, amendment number : , agreement type : G, recipient legal name : Trivedi, Japan (University of Alberta), recipient country : CA, recipient province : nan, recipient city : Alberta, recipient postal code : nan, program name english : Engage Grants for Universities, program name french : Subventions d'engagement partenarial pour les universités, program purpose english : Currently, the commonly used oil displacement agent utilizes synthetic polymers, the viscosity of which, however, descends drastically with the increase of temperature and salinity. This research focuses on combining branched macromolecules with linear hydrophobically associating polymer that can improve the anti-shearing performance, temperature tolerance, and salt tolerance of the polymer aqueous solution. _x000D_
We propose a hyperbranched dendritic shape polymer because of unique properties such as relatively low cost, multiple functional groups, a large area of coverage and eco-friendliness compared to linear polymers. This will be one of a novel polymeric surfactant for oil recovery application._x000D_
