Abstract

The rheological behavior of the complex hydrogel systems used for water shutoff in high water-cut wells, before and after filtration in cracks with different openings, was studied. The research objects were multicomponent mixtures of solutions of sodium silicate and polyacrylamide (PAA), crosslinked with Cr3+ salts, with additions of solid particles of lignin nature. The experimental data were analyzed using the approach considering the active medium as consisting of many particles, structural elements, each exhibiting a specific relaxation time. It was assumed that the external field of mechanical forces, characterized by shear stress, causes reversible activation excitation and decay of a group of the structural elements. The viscous flow activation energy, determined in the time interval Δt, corresponds to the average energy required to overcome intermolecular forces of various nature. Processing of the data on the rheological characteristics of the hydrogels at different temperatures revealed a quasi-discrete character of the spectra of the structural elements. Analysis of the autocorrelation functions (ACFs) of the spectra indicates a strong cooperative interaction of the structural elements.
