Synthesis, Characterization, and Performance of New Polymeric Nonionic Surfactants as Flow Improvers and Wax Dispersants for Waxy Crude Oil

Abstract
One of the major issues in waxy crude oil (WCO) production is wax deposition, which causes significant losses to the oil sector. New three polymeric nonionic surfactants (PNSs) based on 2-phenylethan-1-amine (I1, I2 & I3) were designed and synthesized in merely two simple processes (ethoxylation and esterification) to inhibit wax crystal development and enhance the cold flowability. To verify the ...
