Investigating the Impact of Polymers on Clay Flocculation and Residual Oil Behaviour Using a 2.5D Model.

In the process of oilfield development, the surfactant-polymer (SP) composite system has shown significant effects in enhancing oil recovery (EOR) due to its excellent interfacial activity and viscoelastic properties. However, with the continuous increase in the volume of composite flooding injection, a decline in injection-production capacity (I/P capacity) has been observed. Through the observation of frozen core slices, it was found that during the secondary composite flooding (SCF) process, a large amount of residual oil in the form of intergranular adsorption remained in the core pores.

Preparation of Magnetic Hemicellulosic Composite Microspheres and Adsorption of Copper Ions.

In this study, the fabrication of magnetic hemicellulosic composite microspheres and the adsorption of copper ions are explored. The microspheres were prepared by the micro-emulsion technique, using FeO nanoparticles and hemicellulose extracted from wheat straw with the ionic liquid B[mim]Cl as a solvent. FeO nanoparticles, synthesized through coprecipitation, were evenly encapsulated within the hemicellulosic microspheres.

Climate and Bedrock Collectively Influence the Diversity Pattern of Plant Communities in Qiniangshan Mountain.

Climate and geological diversity have been proven to make an important contribution to biodiversity. Volcanic ecosystems often have a long geological history and diverse bedrock, thus shaping a variety of habitats. Understanding the relative importance and role of the contemporary climate and geological bedrock environment in volcanic biodiversity still needs further exploration.

Integrative Analysis of Pharmacology and Transcriptomics Predicts Resveratrol Will Ameliorate Microplastics-Induced Lung Damage by Targeting Ccl2 and Esr1.

Background: Microplastics (MPs) are ubiquitous on earth, posing a growing threat to human health. Previous studies have shown that the lung is a primary organ for MPs exposure. Resveratrol (RES) is a common dietary polyphenol that exhibits anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects.
