Abstract:
The present disclosure provides for shape memory proppants, methods for making shape memory proppants, and methods of using shape memory proppants, and the like. The strong expandable proppants of the present disclosure may be used in maintaining fracture openings.

Claim (Index 1):
A composition, comprising:\n a shape memory polymer proppant composed entirely of a shape memory polymer material, wherein the proppant has an activated state and a programmed state, wherein in the programmed state of the proppant has a programmed state diameter, wherein in the activated state of the proppant has an activated state diameter, wherein the activated state diameter is equal to or greater than the programmed state diameter, wherein the proppant in the programmed state will convert to the proppant in the activated state when an activation condition is applied to the proppant in the programmed state, wherein the activation condition is an activation temperature, wherein the activation temperature is about 70 to 180\u00b0 C., wherein the programmed state diameter is about 100 \u03bcm to 1 mm, and wherein the activated state diameter is about 100 \u03bcm to 1 mm, and wherein the activated state diameter is equal to or greater than the programmed state diameter.
