High filtration loss of the oil-based drilling fluids restricts their application in reservoirs production at high temperature and high pressure. In this work, modified nano-microsphere P(AM-co-AA)/PSt filtration reducers are designed to reduce filtration loss by excellent dispersion in oil medium, excellent water-absorption swelling and auxiliary emulsification and prepared by inverse phase emulsion polymerization using acrylamide, acrylic acid and styrene, followed by modification with stearyl trimethyl ammonium chloride. The modified nano-microspheres absorb water to reach an equilibrium swelling rate of 950%. Additionally, the water contact angle increases to 70.3° and the temperature resistance reaches up to 240 o C. The permeability of the filter cake can be decreased through the utilization of swelling microspheres to plug tiny cracks, as well as by intertwining organo-montmorillonite sheets with polymer chains detaching from weakly crosslinked microspheres. Especially, due to their excellent dispersion in the oil medium, the microspheres gather at the oil-water interface, thereby stabilizing the emulsification state of oil-based drilling fluids. These two points are conducive to reducing filtration loss. After thermal aging for 16 h at 180 o C, oil-based drilling fluid by adding 4% microspheres exhibits a low filtration loss volume of 7.8 mL at 180 o C and 3.5 MPa. These hydrophilic nano-microspheres with a partially alkylated structure have a considerable practical application prospect as filtration loss reducers of oil-based drilling fluids.

In catalytic reactions, achieving large specific surface area immobilisation of the catalyst is an important factor affecting the catalytic effect, however, the primary challenges in utilizing hydrogels as catalyst carriers are to enhance the mechanical properties of the hydrogel to improve the activity and controllability of the catalyst. In this study, a new structure of P(AM-co-AA)/SMA/NH 2 -SiO 2 hydrogels was synthesized via free radical polymerization, and the effects of the content of AA and NH 2 -SiO 2 on the mechanical properties of the hydrogels were investigated. Without the use of additional cross-linking agents, both a chemical cross-linking network and a hydrophobic linkage network were established, which effectively reconstructed the structure of the hydrogels and dissipated energy. As a result, P(AM-co-AA-1.5 %)/SMA/NH 2 -SiO 2 -0.5 % hydrogel exhibited high mechanical properties, with tensile strength, elongation, and toughness reaching 1456 KPa, 4605 %, and 23.59 MJ/m 3 , respectively. This hydrogel can be utilized as a template for in situ and stable Ag NPs. Additionally, P(AM-co-AA)/SMA/NH 2 -SiO 2 @Ag composite hydrogels were prepared using cation exchange and in situ reduction methods for the catalytic reduction of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP). The composite hydrogel exhibited fast catalysis, high efficiency, stable cycling, recyclability and adjustable catalytic activity at 35 °C with K app = 0.811 min −1 . Furthermore, using this composite hydrogel alleviated the need for separating metal nanoparticle catalysts from the reaction system, thereby enabling the development of robust hydrogel materials with controlled catalytic activity for the wastewater treatment industry.

Choline chloride, acrylamide (AM) and acrylic acid (AA) were used as raw materials to prepare deep eutectic solvent, and β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) was used as filler to prepare β-CD/P(AM- co -AA) composite hydrogel by frontal polymerization. The composite hydrogel was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy. The pH response, mechanical properties and self-healing of the hydrogel were studied. The results show that AA contains easily ionized –COOH, which makes the composite hydrogel have excellent pH response and super-high swelling ratio under alkaline conditions. With the addition of β-CD, due to the increase of hydrogen bonds and the combination of β-CD and polymer chains the mechanical properties of the hydrogel are obviously improved and the tensile strength and compressive strength are increased by 4.12 and 2.26 times respectively. The introduction of β-CD can improve the self-healing performance of the composite hydrogel. With the increase of β-CD content, the healing rate and healing speed of the composite hydrogel show an upward trend. In this study, a simpler and faster method is proposed to prepare self-healing composite hydrogel with excellent mechanical properties and pH responsiveness. The self-healing property and the existence of a hydrophobic cavity of β-CD make β-CD/P(AM- co -AA) composite hydrogel have potential application in wound healing. © 2023 Society of Industrial Chemistry.

Traditional hydrogels with a single-crosslinked network structure suffer from poor stretchability, low sensitivity, and easy contamination, which seriously affect their practical application in the strain sensor field. To overcome these shortcomings, herein, a multiphysical crosslinking strategy (ionic crosslinking and hydrogen bonding) was designed to prepare a hydrogel strain sensor based on chitosan quaternary ammonium salt (HACC)-modified P(AM-co-AA) (acrylamide-co-acrylic acid copolymer) hydrogels. The ionic crosslinking for the double-network P(AM-co-AA)/HACC hydrogels was achieved by an immersion method with Fe3+ as crosslinking sites, which crosslinked with the amino group (−NH2) on HACC and the carboxyl group (−COOH) on P(AM-co-AA) and enabled the hydrogels to recover and reorganize rapidly, resulting in a hydrogel-based strain sensor with excellent tensile stress (3 MPa), elongation (1390%), elastic modulus (0.42 MPa), and toughness (25 MJ/m3). In addition, the prepared hydrogel exhibited high electrical conductivity (21.6 mS/cm) and sensitivity (GF = 5.02 at 0–20% strain, GF = 6.84 at 20–100% strain, and GF = 10.27 at 100–480% strain). Furthermore, the introduction of HACC endowed the hydrogel with excellent antibacterial properties (up to 99.5%) and excellent antibacterial activity against bacteria of three forms, bacilli, cocci, and spores. The flexible, conductive, and antibacterial hydrogel can be applied as a strain sensor for real-time detection of human motions such as joint movement, speech, and respiration, which exhibits a promising application prospect in wearable devices, soft robotic systems, and other fields.

Flexible strain sensors and flexible supercapacitors have generated a lot of interest because of their great potential to be used in flexible electronic equipment. Ionic hydrogels are ideal for the preparation of strain sensors and supercapacitor electrolytes, so the design of a multifunctional ionic conductive hydrogel is the key to obtain both high-performance strain sensors and flexible all-solid-state supercapacitors. During our work, trehalose and LiCl were added concurrently to the P(AM-co-AA) polymer network to prepare a multifunctional ionic conductive hydrogel combining ultra stretchability (elongation at break up to 4529%), high ionic conductivity, self-adhesive and freeze-resistant moisturizing properties. The ionic conductive hydrogel was encapsulated into a strain sensor, which has excellent sensing performance, achieving a great detection range (0–4200%) and high sensitivity (GF = 3.59 in the strain range of 2200–4200%). The strain sensor was applied to human motion detection, demonstrating precise detection behavior for joint flexion and muscle movement. The ionic conductive hydrogel was assembled with flexible fabric electrodes loaded with carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and MXene to form a sandwich-type supercapacitor. The supercapacitor exhibited high areal capacitance (148.2 mF/cm 2 ), excellent cycling performance, outstanding stability and good low temperature resistance.
