The addition of the surfactant can greatly reduce the moisture content of the sludge. But little research has been done on the synthesis of surfactants and the mechanism of dehydration. Thus, a novel cationic surfactant ZWY-28 with higher surface activity and more surface charge was investigating for sludge dewatering in this research. Results showed that when the content of ZWY-28 was 1% (0.14 g/L), the specific resistance to the filtration of sludge had a minimum value of 2.04 × 10 12 m/kg, the moisture content of the dehydrated sludge cake reached a minimum of 78.9%, the bound water reduced to 6.32 g/g, decreased by 39.2%. What’s more, the ZWY-28 is extremely helpful in releasing Extracellular polymers substances from sludge, lead to the removal of bound water, which is the key point of affecting sludge dewatering. The study clearly illustrated that the surfactant ZWY-28 accelerated the dewatering process and could be used as a potential agent for sludge. Meanwhile, it provides ideas for the selection and structure design of surfactants in sludge dewatering.

Global liquid packaging industry has been greatly spurred by the rapidly growing food & beverage industry all over the world. Liquid packaging board (LPB), as the main composition (75–80 %) of laminated liquid packaging cartons, must possess high-quality of hydrophobicity and physical properties for excellent leak-proof and protecting the packaged commodity. Herein, in this study, lignin is selected to prepare lignin cationic surfactant (LCS) by quaternary ammonium modification. Then cationic lignin modified rosin size ( L -CDRS) with uniform microsphere structure and high colloidal stability is successfully synthesized via a phase inversion process to improve the sizing performance and mechanical properties of LPB. The cation modified LCS presents improved amphipathicity of rich cationic charges and hydrophobic benzene ring skeleton, thus enhancing the electrostatic interactions between LCS and pulp fibers and improving the sizing performance of L -CDRS. The sizing performance of LPB is evaluated by varying the LCS dosages within L -CDRS and concluded that the edge penetration value and Cobb value of LPB handsheets exhibit an improved size performance with 2 % LCS within L -CDRS, implying the formation of homogeneous hydrophobic surface layer induced by the well-distribution of L -CDRS. In addition, the tensile index of LPB increased from 19.74 N·m/g to 25.96 N·m/g assisted by 2 % LCS emulsified L -CDRS, indicating an improved mechanical property. This study puts forward a practical and facile strategy to improve the sizing performance and mechanical properties facilitated by lignin enhanced rosin size and will further broaden the application range of traditional rosin size and lignin in LPB products.

The compatibility between polypyrrole (PPy) and waterborne epoxy coating (EP) remains the main challenge. Here, phosphorylated poly (vinyl alcohol) (PPVA) and p-toluene sulfonic acid sodium (p-TSA) were simultaneously utilized as dopants to modify PPy and prepare water dispersible PPVA/p-TSA/PPy (PPVAT/PPy) solution. Additionally, poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA) and TSA were also adopted to prepare PVA/p-TSA/PPy (PVAT/PPy) for comparison. Denser film with granular morphology was observed for PPVAT/PPy nanocomposite film. Compared with PVAT/PPy-40 %, the tensile strength of PPVAT-8.0 %/PPy-40 % increased from 248.8–283.9 MPa. PPVAT/PPy displayed higher compatibility and interactions with EP compared to PPy-TSA and PVAT/PPy. Compared with EP, the impedance modulus of PVAT/PPy+EP and PPVAT/PPy+EP increased from 3.17×10 5 to 1.07×10 8 and 1.62×10 9 Ω·cm 2 ; corrosion current density I corr decreased from 1.49×10 −6 to 7.72×10 -8 and 4.01×10 -9 A·cm -2 ; corrosion potential E corr displayed a positive shift of 230 mV and 269 mV, respectively. The corrosion inhibition efficiency of PPVAT/PPy+EP reached 99.83 %, which is much higher than that of PVAT/PPy+EP (93.97 %). PPVAT/PPy+EP nanocomposite coating has been proved to have preferable long-term corrosion resistance based on electrochemical impedance spectra (EIS), polarization curves and salt water spray test. The simultaneous incorporation of phosphate anions, sulfate ions and PPy into EP was beneficial to fabricate high-performance anticorrosion coating.

Aiming at deep profile control in water flooding reservoirs, a heterogeneous combination flooding system, composed of dispersed particle gel (DPG) and a zwitterionic surfactant (THSB), was developed. The mean particle diameter was adjusted and then the DPG morphology and diameter were characterized using a laser scanning, confocal microscope, and dynamic light scattering. The effects of DPG concentration, temperature, pH, and salinity on THSB interfacial tension (IFT) were investigated. A method for determining DPG concentration was proposed, and the dynamic retention and migration mechanisms of the particles were evaluated, using cores with different permeabilities. Finally, the oil displacement mechanism of the combination flooding system was explored through visual simulation experiments and scanning electron microscopy. The results showed that the particle diameter was 2.5 μm, that compared with a surfactant system, the IFT of the combination flooding system was relatively low, and that the temperature, pH, and NaCl content of solutions had little effect on THSB IFT. Since specific matching relationships between DPG particles and reservoir pore throats existed, the retention amount and injection pressure were improved with the increased core permeability. Visual simulation experiments revealed the oil recovery mechanism of the combination flooding system. This combination flooding system can be used in reservoirs under varied conditions, as the particle diameter can be adjusted on a case-by-case basis, and the THSB surfactant proved to be high-temperature resistant and high-salinity tolerant. The combination flooding system can be applied to deep profile control and oil displacement, in oil fields.

The effects of cationic surfactants on the properties of Pickering emulsions stabilized by silica nanoparticles (nano-SiO 2 ) were investigated. The zeta potential , three-phase contact angle ( θ ), and dynamic interfacial tension (DIT) were measured to analyze the interaction between hydrophilic nano-SiO 2 and four different cationic surfactants (i.e., dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide [DTAB], bis-quaternary ammonium salts [BQAS-12], multiple quaternary ammonium salts [MQAS-12], and dimethyldioctadecylammonium bromide [DDAB-18]). All these surfactants can naturally improve the stability of Pickering emulsions induced by hydrophilic nano-SiO 2 . The nano-SiO 2 /MQAS-12 mixtures exhibited the best ability to stabilize the O/W emulsions, followed by nano-SiO 2 /BQAS-12 mixtures. The nano-SiO 2 /DDAB-18 mixtures can induce emulsion inversion from O/W to W/O. All emulsions exhibited excellent salt tolerance and acid-base resistance properties. Determining the zeta potential showed that nano-SiO 2 had the highest negative charge at the pH of 9.5. Thus, the surfactant molecules can be adsorbed remarkably on the nano-SiO 2 surface. Modification with different cationic surfactants can significantly increase the θ value of nano-SiO 2 , but the bilayers for DTAB-12, BQAS-12, and MQAS-12, except for DDAB-18, were adsorbed. DIT curves indicated that competitive adsorption of the surfactants occurred between the oil/water interface and nano-SiO 2 surface. The competitive adsorption of MQAS-12 was stronger than those of BQAS-12 and DTAB-12. The nano-SiO 2 /DDAB-18 mixture had an apparent induction region and required a considerable amount of time to reach equilibrium. The modified nano-SiO 2 was also not adsorbed in the oil/water interface spontaneously, which may be due to the large size of particles compared with small surfactant molecules.
