Abstract:

The interfacial dilational rheological properties of a novel polyacrylamide derivative, branch-preformed particle gel(PPG), were studied by interfacial tension relaxation measurements. The effects of electrolytes and conventional polyacrylamide on dilational rheological properties of PPG were studied. The dilational elasticity and viscosity components of different systems were calculated by Fourier transform and displayed as Cole-Cole curves. The results show that interfacial elasticity and viscosity components of PPG solutions both increase due to the formation of interfacial net structure with the increasing bulk concentration. Electrolyte will neutralize the excess charge of PPG, thus decreases dilational elasticity and viscosity. When mixed with liner polyacrylamide, the more complex structure is formed, but the overall viscoelasticity of the system is still determined by PPG.

Key words: Branch-preformed particle gel(PPG), Polyacrylamide, Dilational rheology, Interfacial tension relaxation, Cole-Cole curve
