Back ground
Stable emulsions formed in polymer or ASP flooding of oil recovery.
Purpose
Study the influence of indigenious interfacial active fractions from crude and alkali, surfactant, polymer on interfacial property between crude and water, and stability of crude emulsion.

Conclusion
•Carboxylic acids in the fractions of asphaltene from Gu Dong crude, the resin from Da Qing crude and the fatty acid in the fractions of saturate from Da Qing crude are responsible for decreasing the interfacial tension;
•These acids have smaller relatively molecule mass, more branch chain, more oxygen but they are not able to stabilize emulsion. It is the acids with lager relatively molecule mass are responsible for stabilizing the emulsions.

•For model oil and alkali solution system the salt or
soap formed by fast reaction of the acid, ester with
smaller relatively molecule mass and alkali is responsible
for decreasing the interfacial tension. The salt or soap
formed by slow reaction of the acid, ester with lager
relatively molecule mass and alkali is responsible
for stabilizing crude oil emulsions.

Conclusion:
The emulsion(o/w) formed in ASP flooding is
stabilized by the interfacial film, steric and
electrostatic stabilization of asphaltene,
polymers and the interfacial active substances
formed by reaction of alkali and crude oils.
