Abstract

Sodium-carboxymethylcellulose inhibits the crystallization of calcium carbonate and sulfate on the surface of stainless steel in a supersaturated aqueous solution at 80°C. An increase in the size of calcium carbonate crystals and a change of their structure is observed in the presence of sodium-carboxymethylcellulose. The data obtained indicate that development of new “green” reagents for oil and gas extraction, scale inhibitors, on the basis of sodium-carboxymethylcellulose is promising.
