| 20110196125 | Degradable Polymers for Hydrocarbon Extraction - The present disclosure is directed degradable polymers. The polymers are solid when maintained under substantially dry conditions at a temperature of up to about 90 degrees C. When contacted with water at a temperature of up to about 90 degrees C., however, the polymers initially remain solid for a period of up to about 6 to about 24 hours, then depolymerize to provide a liquid having a viscosity of from about 1 to about 200,000 centipoise after a period of time from about 8 hours to about 3 days and then further depolymerizes to water-soluble components after a period of time at least about 3 days. Also disclosed are sand screen coatings made with the polymers and hydraulic and acid fracturing methods using the polymers. | 08-11-2011 |
