Mini Review
Improved Oil Recovery Through the Use of Titanium Dioxide and Silica Nanoparticles
Author(s): Bin Liu*
By designing new materials based on their surface modifier with a variety of functional properties and applications, surface engineering of
nanoparticles has helped advance nanoscience and nanotechnology. If an ionic surfactant alters their surface, dispersed nanoparticles can
alter the interfacial properties of a liquid-liquid system in the aqueous phase. Ions and the nanoparticle-brine system's interfacial energy have a
tendency to alter pore channel transport and enhance recovery. Some advantages of using particles suspended at Nano scales include the ability
to easily counterbalance gravity's force with induced sedimentation stability. Their Nano size, nanostructure, high volume-to-surface ratio, and
strong rock fluid interaction all contributed to this. Additionally, it alters the surface characteristics of surfactant and polymer within the rock in a
