Abstract
Through determining and evaluating interfacial tension and emulsifying properties of dodecyl polyglucoside (APG-12), the results show that APG-12’s performance is better than C12 linear alkylbenzene sulfonate (LAS) and alkyl phenol polyoxyethylene ether (OP-10). In order to emulsify properties of APG-12, it is more stable when concentration is over 1.5 g/L. We studied the temperature and oil-water ratio has an effect on emulsifying property.
Highlights
Dodecyl polyglucoside (APG-12) is a kind of nonionic surfactant which is made of natural starch and vegetable oil derivatives
In Huanxi ridge’s crude oil, for example, this paper studied the emulsifying properties of APG-12
The finished water-oil emulsion in a glass slide was observed by microscope and record by camera
Summary
Dodecyl polyglucoside (APG-12) is a kind of nonionic surfactant which is made of natural starch and vegetable oil derivatives. It has good surface activity, high alkali resistant ability and strong ability of degradation. APG-12 is the fastest growing products in the green surface active agent. In Huanxi ridge’s crude oil, for example, this paper studied the emulsifying properties of APG-12. Experimental drugs: dodecyl polyglucoside (APG-12), alkyl phenol polyoxyethylene ether (OP-10), C12 linear alkylbenzene sulfonate (LAS) and sodium chloride. The experimental oil is Huanxi Ridge crude oil. Laboratory equipment: XSP-8CA type high power biological microscope, JPJ-300-type shear emulsifying.
