- Functions:Surfactant
- Chemical Family:Sulfonates
- Applicable Processes:Oil Recovery
RECOLAS 103 is a surfactant specifically designed for enhanced oil recovery (EOR). This surfactant comprises C10-C13 and C14-C17 linear alkylbenzene sodium sulfonates, respectively, and is formulated to achieve ultra-low interfacial tension (IFT) in the alkaline surfactant polymer (ASP) and surfactant polymer (SP) methods. They are typically used in conjunction with co-surfactants or co-solvents to optimize performance in EOR formulations.
