Abstract

Abstract: Ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA) is a commonly used pour point depressants (PPDs) for crude oil, but its molecular structure is relatively simple and it has poor pour point depressing effect on some oils. In order to enhance its effect on pour point, long alkyl side chain modified EVA was prepared by a simple method of direct reaction of stearoyl chloride with hydroxylated EVA, and was compounded with alkyl long-chain silsesquioxane nanoparticles (SS). The pour point depressant effect and the mechanism of modified EVA and SS compound pour point depressants on wax oil were studied. The compounded pour point depressant provides crystal nuclei for the wax, making the wax crystals smaller and difficult to overlap and reducing the amount of wax precipitation. When the compounding ratio is m(EVA-g)∶m(SS-L)=1∶2 and the mass fraction in wax oil is 0.1%, the pour point is reduced by 25 ℃.

Key words: ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer, stearoyl chloride, silsesquioxane, pour point depressant, waxy oil
